Oceanic plate plate model cooling topography

[simransuresh]

• for oceanic plate, a plate model cooling topography is added. Similar to the half space cooling model
• input params are flexible - top density, bottom density, top temperature, bottom temperature and min_ocean_depth is the ridge distance from surface.
• assumption is L in the equation which is the plate thickness - set to max_depth param.
• Ref: Turcotte and Schubert geodynamics book

Plate model in topography plugin of oceanic plate. ridge center is 100e3 on a total dimension of 1150e3 and plot below shows the line perpendicular across ridge.

[alarshi]

Thank you for the contribution!
I have a comment on the reference for the implementation, after you address that, I will be able to review your PR better.

[alarshi]

Could you send me the screenshot of the page or the exact reference you are using. I am comparing against Turcotte & Schubert :

and Fowler's reference :

Both of them differ from what you have. I suspect that you have a different version and I am unable to compare your implementation right now.

[simransuresh]

The second formula has a missing exp so I used first one but didnt add that reference. I have corrected the formula (from Turcotte & Schubert) and committed now.

@alarshi and @danieldouglas92 I have addressed all your comments.
