Description:

platemotion 0.1.7

Welcome to the platemotion package

The platemotion package is an archive of scientific routines for handling tectonic plate motion. Currently, operations on plate include:

Calculate the geometrical and physical properties of plates, such as area, centroid, moment of inertia tensor
Calculate velocities of points given Euler pole parameters
Estimate the euler pole based on ITRF2014 velocity field

How to Install


Install cartopy from conda by conda install cartopy


On Linux, macOS and Windows architectures, the binary wheels can be installed using pip by executing one of the following commands:


pip install platemotion
pip install platemotion --upgrade # to upgrade a pre-existing installation

How to use
Initialize a plate
from platemotion import Plate
# define a tectonic plate from a spherical polygon file
plate_an = Plate.from_file('platemotion/data/NnrMRVL_PltBndsLatLon/an',skiprows=1)

Set Euler pole
from astropy import units as u

#omega = np.array([-0.0914,-0.5283,0.7547])*u.mas/u.yr
#plate_an.set_omega(omega,'cartesian')

omega = [59.4*u.deg,236.5*u.deg,0.23*u.deg/u.Ma]
plate_an.set_omega(omega,'spherical')
#plate_an.set_name('Antarctica')

Calculate the area of the spherical polygon over the Earth with an averaged radius of 6371km.
