TL;DR: In this article , the authors present 3D numerical models of subduction zone initiation by polarity reversal resulting from the arrival of an oceanic plateau at the trench, and show that this process is more likely to occur for old subducting plates and narrow plateaus, and that new subduction zones can form from previous ones in a self-replicating manner.

TL;DR: In this paper, different sand-box analogue modelling experiments were carried out to better understand, not only the shear zone perturbation effect caused by strictly rheologic (viscous-weak) anomaly, but also the one arising from a combined morphological perturbations (i.e., traverse topographic crest).

TL;DR: A computational and microscopy framework to track and simulate antibody transport within the tumor microenvironment that complements the previously established in vitro models platform is presented and paves the way to the development of a valuable tool to study the influence of different components of the tumormicroenvironment on antibody transport.

TL;DR: In this paper , a set of numerical experiments were carried out to investigate the influence of lower crust mechanical weaknesses (weak-seeds) in the early rift nucleation of grabens, while simultaneously assuming different rheological configurations for the extending continental crust.
