Hello everyone!<br><br>I am currently using Gale to run a 2D long-term extension model using very low velocities (~2 mm/year) over a ~40 million year time period, and with a resolution of 135 x 90.<br>I try to choose a dtFactor such that the amount of time in each timestep is roughly 100k.<br>
Everything runs smoothly until after only the first or second timestep, when Gale gives the following disheartening error:<br><br>"Something went horribly wrong in _PCDVC_Calculate2D: Problem has an under resolved cell (Cell Id = 738), check or tune your population control parameters"<br>
<br>No such error comes about when I leave the dtFactor as 1, so it would seem the problem is with increasing the dtFactor. Also, if I just use dt the same error comes about.<br>Increasing the resolution and number of particles seems to help, but I can only increase so much before I run out of memory (I am not using compiled version of Gale), so is this the only solution?<br>
<br>Has anyone come across this error?<br>If anyone can shed some light that'd be really great!<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Charmaine Thomas<br>M.Sc. Candidate<br>School of Geosciences | University of Sydney<br><br><br><br>
