28 sie 2017 · The main purpose of this study is twofold: (1) to develop detailed models of lithospheric strength of oceanic plates and ridge-push force, and (2) to determine the rheological and tectonic conditions for ridge-push force transmission in the interior of oceanic plates.
1 gru 2017 · The ridge-push force has been derived from the thermal state of oceanic lithosphere, seafloor depth and crustal age data. The results of modeling show that the transmission of ridge-push...
Ridge push (also known as gravitational slides or sliding plate force) is a proposed driving force for plate motion in plate tectonics that occurs at mid-ocean ridges as the result of the rigid lithosphere sliding down the hot, raised asthenosphere below mid-ocean ridges.
Ridge-Push Force. Let's cover a final force a subducting plate would experience, the ridge-push force. This force results from the elevation of oceanic ridges above the seafloor. This difference in height leads to pressure that 'pushes' the plate away from the ridge.
23 cze 2023 · We present a new algorithm that calculates time-dependent slab pull, ridge push (GPE force) and mantle drag resistance for any topologically closed reconstruction, and evaluates the...
1 lut 2012 · We find that ridge push introduces additional tractions directed away from ridges, as expected, but the net effect on the global force balance is small, as demonstrated by Figure 5 (cf. grey curve to red).
1 sty 2021 · These sublithospheric buoyancy forces generate the plate-driving forces Fsp (slab pull) and Frp (ridge push).
