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.
