[aspect-devel] Traction b.c.

Hi everyone,

I was running models with traction b.c. and I'm a bit confused with the
"Representative point" parameter. I know it has to do with the point above
where density is integrated, but is it only integrated before the 1st
timestep or every timestep? And is the resulting pressure then applied to
the entire face? And how is the pressure at a certain depth calculated - is
it just linearly interpolated or does it take the density variance into
account?

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Lev Karatun.
