Abstract

A model of the Aleutian arc system is studied from the point of view of a plate tectonic concept based on the global geodynamic model. In our model problem we limit ourselves to a model in which the lithospheric plate is obducting with time onto the oceanic lithospheric plate. For numerical experiments an elastic rheology was applied. Our mathematical analysis is based on the analysis of contact problems without friction. Details of the numerical results are discussed.
