Sentence examples for motion of plates from inspiring English sources
Motion of plates in the Paleogene and Neogene periods (about 65.5 million to 2.6 million years ago) led to igneous activity in two regions.
The translating motion of plates is driven by two linear motors (PS01 Linmot, Spreitenbach, Switzerland) that control the forward and backward movement.
Second, spin motion of plates without slabs decreases at plate sizes of ({sim }1000) km and greater (Fig. 5), which indicates the strength for plate boundaries (Fig. 6).
They extend to the curved geometry, the models used to describe the longitudinal motion of straight beams and the in-plane motion of plates.
The coupled equations of motion of plates carrying liquids, the free surfaces of which are parallel to the plate, are developed.
The governing equations of motion of plates on linear Winkler, Pasternak foundations and a non-linear Winkler foundation are provided using von Kármán's theory.
In this paper a new hierarchical functions set is proposed to predict flexural motion of plate-like structures in the medium frequency range.
The nonlinear governing equations of motion of plate are discretized in space and time domains using the discrete singular convolution and the differential quadrature methods, respectively.
To quantitatively examine the effects of plate geometry and motion on the toroidal/poloidal ratio, we focused on individual plates and investigated variations in the geometries and motions of plates with variations in plate size.
Though the Moon shows both tension and compression features (low wrinkle ridges, usually near mare margins, may result from compression), it gives no evidence of having experienced the large, lateral motions of plate tectonics marked by faults in Earth's crust.
The high toroidal/poloidal kinetic energy ratio, which characterizes plate tectonics, has been used as a criterion to evaluate the accuracy of three-dimensional simulations of mantle convection that naturally reproduce the surface motions of plate tectonics (e.g., Richards et al. 2001; Tackley 2000a, b).
