2012年10月17日 · [4] Here we investigate two main controls on continental mountain building using 2D numerical thermomechanical modeling at lithospheric scale: 1) The effect of the strength of the upper/lower crust on the geometry of contractional system, and 2) the effect of rift inheritance by a procedure coined accordion tectonics.

Describe the different ways in which deformation of Earth’s lithosphere builds mountains. Measure the strike and dip of a geological feature, and plot the information on a map. Folds, like those in the centre of Figure 13.1, are a common feature of mountain belts.

2013年2月27日 · Based on mantle circulation modeling and tectonic reconstructions, we surmise that the forces necessary to sustain slab-suction mountain building in those orogens derive, after transient slab ponding, from the mantle drag induced upon slab penetration into the lower mantle, and from an associated surge of mantle upwelling beneath Africa.

2024年4月24日 · While some mountains are volcanoes and form when molten rock erupts on Earth’s surface, faulting and folding on a large scale also build mountains. In fact, the majority of mountain building on Earth is from folding and faulting rather than from volcanic eruptions.

结果表明，在一个盆地—山脉—盆地拱形构造体系中，山脉可以通过拱形构造效应将其巨大的重力转化为侧向挤压力（即周向应力）传导至两侧的盆地，使盆地的压力远远大于山脉腹地。 这种拱形构造效应产生的应力差不仅为盆地沉降和山脉隆升提供了统一动力机制，也为盆山演化相伴随的地震和火山活动积累了能量。 The origins of orogenic belts and basins as well as the mechanism of deep dynamics of basin-mountain coupling have always been the hot issues in geoscientific …

The current code for structures mainly focuses on the flat ground buildings, neglecting the particularity of the structure on the slope due to the lack of targeted control indicators and guidance.

We review separately aspects of two types of forces that resist mountain building and therefore that affect the support, deep structure, and evolution of mountain ranges, using observations from the large-scale tectonics of Asia and the Andes to illustrate them.

2021年2月1日 · This work describes systems of mining machines for peat extraction, particularly, the systems that exploit environment-friendly technologies. An algorithm for schematic structure modeling of modular mining machinery systems was introduced and analyzed.
