- CitcomCU — by admin — last modified 2008-01-15 01:42 PM
- CitcomCU is a finite element parallel code capable of modeling thermochemical convection in a three dimensional domain appropriate for convection within the Earth's mantle.
- CitcomS — by admin — last modified 2008-09-05 02:03 PM
- CitcomS is a finite element code designed to solve compressible thermal convection problems relevant to Earth's mantle.
- ConMan — by Sue Kientz — last modified 2008-09-18 03:37 PM
- ConMan is a finite element program for the solution of the equations of incompressible, infinite-Prandtl number convection in two dimensions, originally written by Scott King, Arthur Raefsky and Brad Hager.
- Ellipsis3d — by admin — last modified 2008-01-15 01:43 PM
- Ellipsis3d is a three-dimensional version of the particle-in-cell finite element code Ellipsis, a solid modeling codes for visco-elastoplastic materials.
- HC — by Sue Kientz — last modified 2009-04-15 02:10 PM
- HC is a global mantle circulation solver following Hager and O'Connell (1981) which can compute velocities, tractions, and geoid for simple density distributions and plate velocities. This particular implementation illustrates one possible way to combine the HC solver routines. Based on code by Brad Hager, Richard O'Connell, and Bernhard Steinberger. This version by Thorsten Becker and Craig O'Neill.
- Journal Articles Using CIG Mantle Convection Software Results — by Sue Kientz — last modified 2009-02-04 02:07 PM
- Journal articles which use results obtained (in nearly all cases) from CitcomS. One paper references HC (code under development).
