Motion2TorqueCalculate_dEV2dM_Matrix(String, Double, Double, Double, Double, Double, CartoLimits, Double) Method

This function calculates the 3×3 matrix that link Euler-vector variations to torque-variations.

Definition

Namespace: MYRIAM
Assembly: MYRIAM (in MYRIAM.exe) Version: 1.0.0
C#
public void Calculate_dEV2dM_Matrix(
	string contourPath,
	double muM,
	double muA,
	double HL,
	double fHA,
	double stepDeg,
	CartoLimits REGION_muA_LV,
	double defLength
)

Parameters

contourPath  String
String path to a plain-text file containing the plate contour coordinates as two columns: [1] longitude and [2] latitude values, both expressed in degrees.
muM  Double
Average value of the lower part of the upper mantle viscosity, expressed in Pa · s.
muA  Double
Average value of the asthenosphere viscosity, expressed in Pa · s.
HL  Double
Value of the lithosphere thickness (i.e., depth of the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary), expressed in meters.
fHA  Double
Value between 0 and 1 that sets the vertical fraction of the region utilized to define the depth-average viscosity of the asthenosphere using the model PM_v2_2012 by Priestley and McKenzie, 2013.
stepDeg  Double
Value for the grid resolution of the plate's base, expressed in degrees.
REGION_muA_LV  CartoLimits
CartoLimits instance with the geographical limits(in degrees) within whichmuA is average.
defLength  Double
Value used to set a deformation buffer width (in meters) across the plate boundary. The boundary region has a linearly-decreased Euler vector magnitude, acting as a damped rigidity, as yielding an overall smaller torque-variation estimate.
