Numerical models of the evolution of accretionary wedges and fold-and-thrust belts using the distinct-element method

Burbidge, D.; Braun, Jean

Description

A 2-D numerical model is used to investigate the evolution of accretionary wedges and fold-and-thrust belts. The numerical method is based on the distinct-element method (DEM). Unlike many continuum numerical models, DEM allows localization to occur even
