Numerical modelling of spontaneous slab breakoff and subsequent topographic response (2011, methodology): “The boundary conditions used in this setup are free slip on all boundaries, except at the lower boundary which is treated as a permeable boundary satisfying an external free slip boundary condition (Burg and Gerya, 2005; Ueda et al., 2008).”
Subduction styles in the Precambrian: Insight from numerical experiments (2009, background): “…2008) might have characterized Earth in the Precambrian, although the conversion of basalt to eclogite may significantly relax this limitation (e.g. Ueda et al., 2008), the intrinsic lower viscosity of the oceanic lithosphere on a hotter Earth will lead to more frequent slab breakoff, and…”
