Geology of the tapo and acobamba pre-andean ultramafites, tarma, cordillera oriental, perú... It was overthrust on early Carboniferous metasedimentary rocksof the Andean basement (Ambo Group), and it shows evidences of a pre-Andean deformational history,not observed in the Ambo Group; the basal thrust plane is folded by the Andean tectonics....
Implications for an active thrust fault... Sequential restoration of the principal rupture requires initial failure on the basal, east-dipping thrust plane, followed by wedge thrusting and pop-up of an overlying symmetrical anticline between two opposing secondary thrust faults....
Novel numerical optimisation of the hohmann spiral transfer... Several trends in the gathered data are also identified that determine when the HST with high or low-thrust plane change should be used to offer the greatest fuel mass benefit
Thermal contraints on high-pressure granulite metamorphism of supracrustal rocks... Five possible heating mechanisms to account for granulite metamorphism of supracrustal rocks are discussed: magnetic heating, thermal relaxation of perturbed temperature profiles following underthrusting of the continental crust, thermal relaxation after underthrusting of thin slivers of supracrustal rocks below continental crust of normal thickness, major preheating of the upper plate, and shear heating caused by frictional stress along the thrust plane
