- Abstract
The article presents a study on the rheological and geometrical influence of subduction dynamics during subduction of continental lithosphere. The study used numerical methods and governing equations, finite element method, and Boussinesq approximations. Results show that all models of the continental collision of lithosphere advance as continent centers continues to migrate.
