Modeling the Dynamics of Subducting Slabs (2008, background): “Subsequently, 2D timedependent models have shown slab break off can only occur for very strong slabs (yield stress greater than 10 GPa) if shear heating or melting occur (Gerya et al. 2004).”
Robust characteristics method for modelling multiphase visco-elasto-plastic thermo-mechanical problems (2007, background): “With a medium resolution of up to few tens of million tracers, we have also solved a number of important geodynamical problems, such as slab detachment (Gerya et al., 2004a,b), plumes in a mantle wedge (Gerya et al., estabilization in high-resolution (grid resolution is 0.5 mm × 0.5 mm, ent (Fig.”
