No-net-rotation Frame

No-Net-Rotation Frame is a reference frame in plate tectonics that belongs to the class of kinematic reference frames and is distinguished by the condition that the sum of the torques due to the horizontal velocities of all tectonic plates is zero, thereby ensuring no net rotation of the lithosphere relative to the mantle.
