I started working on subductions with Mark Simons two months ago, and I'm now trying to set up an earthquake cycle model.</div><div><br></div><div>My problem, for now, is very simple: I have a dipping fault embedded in a 2D elastic homogeneous medium. The deeper part of the dislocation creeps at 4 cm/yr, while the upper part does rupture every 100 years. I managed to do it over a few hundred years: following the pylith manual, I create an array containing each rupture in the cfg file:</div><div><br></div><div>bc = [creep,one,two,three,four]</div><div><br></div><div>Then, I just copy the conditions for each rupture. However, as my ruptures happen every 100 years, and are all the same, is it possible to specify it in a more clever way (with a TIME HISTORY spatialdb file, for instance)?</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you very much,</div><div><br></div><div>Romain</div><div><br><div><div apple-content-edited="true">
