Summary
[edit]DescriptionCritical taper wedge.svg |
English: Critical taper concept in geodynamics. A wedge of material with density ρs is pushed over a slope with angle β with a horizontal line, by a force σx (x is the direction parallel to the slope). The wedge makes a slope with a horizontal line with angle α. Forces resisting this push are: 1) the load of an eventual water column above the wedge; 2) the load of the wedge working at the base of the wedge; 3) the shear strength of the base.
