Model geometry and boundary conditions. A constant horizontal velocity (2 m/kyr) and a changing downward velocity (from 0.88 m/kyr at 0 Myr to 1.02 m/kyr at 3 Myr) are applied at the right and bottom boundaries, respectively. The inset shows the crustal strength profile (solid lines and curves), with the strain rate (\(\dot{\varepsilon }\)) of 5 × 10−16 /s, the initial friction coefficient (μi) of 0.7 and the weakened friction coefficient (μw) of 0.5, and temperature profile (dashed line) at the initial state in the numerical model
