 Continental Drift and Tectonic Plates
These plates (and the more numerous minor plates) move in relation to one another at one of three types of plate boundaries: convergent (two plates push against one another), divergent (two plates move away from each other), and transform (two plates slide past one another).
The key principle of plate tectonics is that the lithosphere exists as separate and distinct tectonic plates, which "float" on the fluid-like asthenosphere.
Tectonic plates are comprised of two types of lithosphere: continental and oceanic lithospheres; for example, the African Plate includes the continent and parts of the floor of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans.

It is known as the Indian earthquake zone, and it has a force that is strong enough to rumble the very heart of India.
In a matter of seconds, the Indian plates began moving, when suddenly, rocks became stressed, and a faultline was created.
But for the Indian earthquake zone and many others, two plates pile up against one another and their contact builds up a lot of heat and pressure, which eventually can trigger an earthquake.

 Dora the Explorer's Indian Ocean (Banda Aceh) Earthquake Science Page
The Sunda plate is part of the Eurasian plate, and the fact that it moves in a subtly different direction than the Eurasian plate contributes to the forces along the subduction trench.
The northern boundary of the sliver plate is not the northern end of teh Andaman Sea, and the sliver plate does not end immediately south of the epicenter of the December 26 quake.
The Burma/ sliver plate is called a plate mainly because the region behind the subduction trench is spreading apart, and the fault zone accomodates rather complex north/ south motion between the plates, this strip of plate often moves in ways that are fairly unique to it, relative to the plates around it.

 Major Tectonic Plates of the World
Where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, the oceanic plate tips down and slides beneath the continental plate forming a deep ocean trench (long, narrow, deep basin.) An example of this type of movement, called subduction, occurs at the boundary between the oceanic Nazca Plate and the continental South American Plate.
Where plates diverge, hot, molten rock rises and cools adding new material to the edges of the oceanic plates.
Plate tectonics, the branch of science that deals with the process by which rigid plates are moved across hot molten material, has helped to explain much in global-scale geology including the formation of mountains, and the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes.

The two plates in question border one another all the way from Arabia to the Antarctic plate.
Gordon and Chu tested their data against two possible models of the region--how a single rigid plate is predicted to behave, and how two separate plates are predicted to behave.
By analyzing and piecing together the data, they were able to construct a careful picture of where the boundary between the plates is located, where the plates are headed and how fast they are moving.

 Unigue Facts about the Globe: Plate Tectonics
Plate tectonics (from the Greek word for "one who constructs") is a theory of geology developed to explain the phenomenon of continental drift, and is currently the theory accepted by the vast majority of scientists working in this area.
In the theory of plate tectonics the outermost part of the Earth's interior is made up of two layers, the outer lithosphere and the inner asthenosphere.
The relative motion of the two plates is either sinistral or dextral.

The Sunda Fault, which divides the Burma and Indian plates, was known to be accumulating strain, says Thorne Lay, of the earth sciences department at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
The Sumatra earthquake is now estimated at magnitude 9.0 to 9.3, but because magnitude is measured on a logarithmic scale, it was several times weaker than the monster that shook Chile in 1960, with an estimated magnitude of 9.5.
One can imagine all of the plate boundary along South American rupturing in a single, magnitude 9.8 to 10 earthquake, but it is extremely unlikely that the whole length would be ready to go at once." Eventually, the rupture will reach a section of fault where a recent earthquake has reduced the stress.
