Abstract

A problem of modeling some processes in the crust is considered. A brief description of different modifications of the spherical block model of lithosphere dynamics and seismicity is presented; the emphasis is on incorporation of lithospheric inhomogeneities into the model. An approach to program realization based on the use of parallel technologies is applied. Results of numerical experiments with an approximation of the global system of tectonic plates are discussed.
