1 | == Work Plans == | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
2 | === !CitcomS/CitcomCU === | |||
3 | * Continue code improvements to !CitcomS | |||
4 | * Add PETSc as a solver option | |||
5 | * Develop 3D spherical benchmarks in conjunction with ASPECT subgroup | |||
6 | === ASPECT === | |||
7 | * Explore options for improving the energy solver, | |||
8 | * Develop and deliver tutorials, | |||
9 | * Replicate existing benchmarks; develop 3D shell benchmark | |||
10 | * Improve temperature/composition stabilization scheme, | |||
11 | * Add active tracers, | |||
12 | * Provide better support for levelset-like compositional field, | |||
13 | * Parallel benchmarking of deal.II and ASPECT to find bottlenecks, | |||
14 | * Work with members of the community to get their patches into ASPECT | |||
15 | The group anticipates: more cookbooks, nonlinear models: more testing and bug fixing, porting to new platforms (e.g., the Bluegene/Q machine at Texas A&M and the machines at the German High Performance Computing Centers), continued work on improving the manual, new ASPECT releases, work on a second ASPECT publication detailing, among other topics, how ASPECT treats compressible models. | |||

+ | [/events/details/46 CIG Mantle and Lithospheric Dynamics Workshop, Joint with the Canadian Geophysical Union] in Banff, Canada, May 4-7, 2014. Participants came together during 3 science sessions:
|
21 | ||||
22 | * '''Computational Methods''': Advancing the state of the art in computational modeling of mantle and lithosphere dynamics | |||
23 | * '''Mantle Convection:''' New insights from mantle convection modeling: Exploring mantle dynamics from the lithosphere to the base of the mantle | |||
24 | * '''Lithospheric Evolution:''' Geodynamics of lithosphere evolution: Numerical models and observational constraints | |||
25 | [/events/details/45 ASPECT Hackathon], May 14-23, 2014. Fourteen participants converged on Texas A&M in College Station, Texas for 10 days of code development while improving their coding skills and practices. | |||
26 | ||||
27 | '''Code Release:''' ASPECT 1.0 & 1.1. The ASPECT developers group has added many new features including performance improvements, new and improved cookbooks, an improved temperature/composition stabilization scheme and active tracers. | |||
28 | ||||
29 | The Citcom development group is also working on 3D spherical benchmarking with the ASPECT group as well as other research groups around the world. | |||
