Fig. 3From: Construction of semi-dynamic model of subduction zone with given plate kinematics in 3D sphereThe effect of the number of finite volumes on results for a 2D case. Temperature and velocity field are shown. The number of finite volumes used is (a) 128 (r-direction) × 384 (φ-direction) and (b) 256 (r-direction) × 768 (φ-direction). The time elapsed from the start of calculations is shown on the bottom-left corner of each figure.Back to article page
