Sluggish Lid Convection with Tracers
Finite-element simulations of solid state convection using the 2-dimensional Cartesian model CITCOM (Moresi & Solomatov 1995, Physics of Fluids). Simulations are performed in an 8x1 Cartesian domain. Simulation data includes: temperature, pressure, velocity, streamfunction, etc. at every node, plus locations of…
About
Finite-element simulations of solid state convection using the 2-dimensional Cartesian model CITCOM (Moresi & Solomatov 1995, Physics of Fluids). Simulations are performed in an 8x1 Cartesian domain. Simulation data includes: temperature, pressure, velocity, streamfunction, etc. at every node, plus locations of tracer particles at specified intervals.
