<div>Greetings,</div><div><br></div><div>I am pleased to announce the release of HC 1.0. HC is a 1D global mantle circulation solver following Hager & 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 is by Thorsten Becker and Craig O'Neill. </div><div><br></div><div>You can download binaries or the source code from</div><div><br></div><div> <a href="http://geodynamics.org/cig/software/packages/mc/hc">http://geodynamics.org/cig/software/packages/mc/hc</a></div><div><br></div><div>Installation instructions are in the bundled README.TXT file.</div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><br></font></div><div>If you encounter any problems or issues, please report them using our Bug Tracker at</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">        </span><a href="http://www.geodynamics.org/roundup/issues/">http://www.geodynamics.org/roundup/issues/</a></div><div><br></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000">If you have questions or wish to provide feedback or suggestions on HC, please e-mail the CIG Mantle Convection mailing list at <a href="mailto:cig-mc@geodynamics.org">cig-mc@geodynamics.org</a>.</font></div><div><br></div><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div>Sue Kientz</div><div>---------------------------</div><div>Technical Writer/Web Manager</div><div>Computational Infrastructure for Geodynamics (CIG)</div><div> <a href="http://www.geodynamics.org">http://www.geodynamics.org</a>/</div><div><a href="mailto:sue@geodynamics.org">sue@geodynamics.org</a></div><div>ofc: (626) 395-1694</div><div>cell: (626) 616-1955</div><div>skype: suekientz</div><div> ~Metaphors Be With You~</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span></span></span> </div><br></body></html>
