GRAVITATIONAL AND TECTONIC FORCES CONTROLLING POSTCOLLISIONAL DEFORMATION AND THE PRESENT-DAY STRESS FIELD OF THE ALPS: CONSTRAINTS FROM NUMERICAL MODELING (2005)

The aim of this work is to find a simple model that can explain the large-scale features of the postcollisional (last 35 Myr) evolution of the Alps, including their planform shape, topography, lithospheric structure, and pattern of erosion/sedimentation, providing an understanding of the processes involved in their development.
