The deadline is rapidly approaching! When: May 21 - June 1 Where: Heber City, Utah Application deadline: March 31 As in previous years, the hackathon is a venue for those with experience developing models with ASPECT and ASPECT itself, to get together and make major progress in a short amount of time. Hackathons have no formal program, with almost all time set aside to work on coding, learning, mentoring, and enjoying a community of fellow hackers. CIG will provide travel support and cover group ground costs (e.g. group transportation, lodging, and meals). Participation is limited. If you are interested in participating, you must apply before March 31. Application and full event details are available at: https://geodynamics.org/cig/events/calendar/2019-aspect-hackathon/?eID=1444 Best, The Organizing Committee Wolfgang Bangerth, Juliane Dannberg, Rene Gassmoeller, Timo Heister, Lorraine Hwang, and John Naliboff -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Other related topics, such as the mechanical properties of the lithosphere will also be discussed. The workshop will blend science talks on case studies from particular faulting environments and on key rheological behavior with discussions of current obstacles to crustal deformation modeling. As in previous years, topics will also span a variety of computational issues including how to go from a geologic structural model to a finite-element model, various numerical issues such as choosing discretization schemes and meshing strategies, and consideration of different bulk and fault zone rheologies. Another explicit goal of this workshop is to provide basic training in the installation, use, and customization of existing, freely available modeling software for crustal deformation. There will be dedicated time throughout the workshop for hands-on interaction with other users and developers of existing tools. More details of the agenda will be posted in the next month. This year's workshop will be held June 10-14, 2019, in Golden, Colorado on the campus of the Colorado School of Mines. The first two days of the workshop will be tutorials (Day 1: intermediate, Day 2: intermediate/advanced) on PyLith followed by three days of science talks, discussions, and informal tutorials and collaboration. We expect beginner modelers to make use of the extensive online training materials before the workshop. We expect to be able to provide reimbursement for a portion of the travel costs incurred for registered attendees with official appointments at U.S. institutions.

If you have any feedback to the white paper, please send it by March 25 to mesp.workshop at gps.caltech.edu . After that date, the writing group will consider the comments and finalize the report by early April; the draft will also undergo further formatting for style.
