Benchmark of three-dimensional numerical models of subduction against a laboratory experiment

In this paper, we validate three-dimensional numerical models of subduction against a laboratory experiment. The design of our numerical models follows that of the laboratory, and employs a single subducting plate fixed at its trailing edge without an overriding plate. Rheology and buoyancy are not...
