[aspect-devel] 3 composition/instability drip

Hi Payman,

I’m guessing the “scheming_empty.prm” model refers to the Scheling et al 2008 (Phys. Earth. Planet Inter.) subduction benchchmark?

To help diagnose the problem, can you send over the .prm you used and a file with the error messages you received.  If the input file is from 2014, a few things may have changed in ASPECT, but it is good to hear the model still runs.

Also, what version of ASPECT are you currently using (version 1.4, master branch from github, etc).

Material model - I think one the existing models should be able to accommodate the parameters used in the Schmeling et al. 2008 paper, especially the linear viscous case?

Cheers,
John
