Rossetti F.; Faccenna C.; Ranalli G.; Storti F. (2000)The effects of convergence rate variations on the evolution of mature orogenic wedges are investigated using temperature-dependent variations in the viscosity of paraffin as an analogue for the natural strength distribution ...

Funiciello F.; Faccenna C.; Bui H.A.; Moroni M.; Cenedese A.; Piromallo C. (2006)Three-dimensional dynamically consistent laboratory models are carried out to model the large-scale mantle circulation induced by subduction of a laterally migrating slab. A laboratory analogue of a slab-upper mantle system ...
-
Funiciello F.; Faccenna C.; Giardini D. (2004)We present 3-D laboratory experiments constructed to investigate the pattern of mantle flow around a subducting slab under different boundary conditions. In particular we present a set of experiments, characterized by ...

ROLE OF THE BACKSTOP-TO-COVER THICKNESS RATIO ON VERGENCE PARTITIONING IN EXPERIMENTAL THRUST WEDGES Storti F.; Marin R.S.; Faccenna C.; Sainz A.C. (2001)The ratio between the thickness of the sedimentary sequences offscraped from the subducting plate (H c ) and the average thickness of the backstop (H b ) is expected to significantly influence vergence partitioning in ...

Faccenna C.; Bellier O.; Martinod J.; Regard V.; Piromallo C. (2006)In this paper, we discuss the possibility that the North Anatolian fault (NAF) results from the deep deformation of the slab beneath the Bitlis-Hellenic subduction zone. We described the tectonic evolution of the Anatolia-Aegean ...

Rossetti F.; Faccenna C.; Ranalli G. (2002)We investigate the effects of convergence velocity and backstop geometry on the evolution of experimental viscous doubly-vergent orogenic wedges. Experiments are performed in a thermomechanical shortening box, using the ...
