This release<br>features checkpointing, deformed lower boundaries, multigrid, and a<br>robust yielding rheology.<br><br>You can download binaries or the source code from<br><br> http://geodynamics.org/cig/software/gale/<br><br>Installation instructions are in the bundled README and INSTALL files.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Walter Landry<br>walter@geodynamics.org<br><br>1.5.0<br>----------------------------------<br><br>* The input file format has changed. See UPGRADE for how to upgrade<br> your input files.<br><br>* The code from Underworld has been merged in and Gale now uses<br> Underworld's build system.<br><br>* Checkpoint and restart works.<br><br>* Multigrid is available as an optional solver.<br><br>* The bottom of the mesh can now be deformed. <br><br>* There is a new script to convert VTK files to CSV (comma separated<br> values), which can be easily read by a number of programs.<br><br>* There is a new program to generate VTK movie files.<br><br>* A new example of a dike was added, and the tibet models removed.<br><br>* The Drucker-Prager rheology now has two parameters,<br> minimumViscosity and maxStrainRate, which greatly improve the<br> robustness and speed.<br><br>* The NonNewtonian rheology now has a melting temperature, above which<br> the viscosity is constant and independent of strain.<br><br>* Inflow boundary conditions work a little better.<br><br>* StrainWeakening now takes a shape strainLimitedShape and a parameter<br> strainLimit.<br><br>* HRS_Erosion, a new surface process, has been added.<br><br>* A number of StandardConditionFunctions have been added.<br><br><br><br>------------------------------<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>CIG-LONG mailing list<br>CIG-LONG@geodynamics.org<br>http://geodynamics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cig-long<br><br><br>End of CIG-LONG Digest, Vol 44, Issue 21<br>****************************************<br></div></blockquote></div><br><div>
