Three‐dimensional instantaneous mantle flow induced by subduction (2006, background): “D) models, corner flow theory [e.g., Tovish et al., 1978] evolved into models that explore, for example, the sensitivity of subduction and induced mantle flow to trench migration [e.g., Garfunkel et al., 1986; Zhong and Gurnis, 1996; Christensen, 1996; Kincaid and Sacks, 1997; Enns et al., 2005].”
Modeling the Dynamics of Subducting Slabs (2008, background): “If the mantle viscosity is Newtonian, then more of the slab negative buoyancy is supported by viscous shear stresses and slab break-off may not occur (Enns et al. 2005, Stegman et al. 2006, Schellart et al. 2007).”
Kinematics and flow patterns in deep mantle and upper mantle subduction models: Influence of the mantle depth and slab to mantle viscosity ratio (2008, background): “…zone [Kincaid and Olson, 1987; Gurnis and Hager, 1988; Griffiths et al., 1995; GuillouFrottier et al., 1995; Zhong and Gurnis, 1995; Christensen, 1996; Funiciello et al., 2003, 2004; Schellart, 2004b, 2005; Enns et al., 2005; Stegman et al., 2006; Morra et al., 2006; Schellart et al., 2007].”
Slab stiffness control of trench motion: Insights from numerical models (2008, methodology): “Dynamically self-consistent numerical [Gurnis and Hager, 1988; Zhong and Gurnis, 1995; Funiciello et al., 2003a; Enns et al., 2005; Stegman et al., 2006] and laboratory models [Funiciello et al., 2003b; Bellahsen et al., 2005; Faccenna et al., 2007] show that the slab strength play a key role in…”
Subduction-triggered magmatic pulses: A new class of plumes? (2010, unknown): “We tested various other setups, including purely compositionally driven slabs (Enns et al., 2005), a range of different choices for the yield stress, a free “ridge” location at x=0, and additional weak zones (“transform faults”) on the sides of the slab.”
Dynamic models of downgoing plate-buoyancy driven subduction: subduction motions and energy dissipation (2007, methodology): “1C) (also e.g., Kincaid and Olson, 1987; Schellart, 2004a; Bellahsen et al., 2005; Enns et al., 2005).”
