+RELAX - time-dependent postseismic deformation with afterslip and viscoelastic flow.
+
+INSTALLATION:
+
+The code is written in Fortran90 and is optimized for the the gfortran and the 
+INTEL ifort compiler. The gmt 4.5+ library is required to export results to GMT 
+for post-processing.
+
+DOCUMENTATION:
+
+Generate a .pdf file of the documentation with the command:
+
+pdflatex latex/documentation.tex
+
+Generate a browsable version of the code with:
+
+doxygen .doxygen
+
+RUN:
+
+Some examples are available in the examples directory. Look up the *.sh files for
+comments and explanations.
+
+VISUALIZATION:
+
+Many outputs are exported in the General Mapping Tools (GMT) format, deformation
+maps can be obtained with typical GMT post-processing. Check the post-processing
+and visualization tools available in the 'util' directory.
+Make sure to have the .ps file viewer 'gv' or the .pdf file viewer 'xpdf' installed.
+Simulations can be visualized in 3D with the free software Paraview (paraview.org).
+
+PURPOSE:
+
+The program RELAX computes nonlinear time-dependent viscoelastic deformation with 
+powerlaw rheology and rate-strengthening friction in a cubic grid due to coseismic 
+stress changes, initial stress, surface loads, and/or moving faults.
+
+DESCRIPTION:
+
+Computation is done semi-analytically inside a cartesian grid. The grid is defined
+by its size sx1*sx2*sx3 and the sampling intervals dx1, dx2 and dx3. Rule of thumb
+is to allow for at least five samples per fault length or width, and to have the 
+tip of any fault at least 10 fault widths away from any edge of the computational
+grid.
+
+Coseismic stress changes and initial coseismic deformation results from the 
+presence of dislocations in the brittle layer. Fault geometry is prescribed 
+following Okada or Wang's convention, with the usual slip, strike, dip and rake and
+is converted to a double-couple equivalent body-force analytically. Current 
+implementation allows shear fault (strike slip and dip slip), dykes, Mogi source, 
+and surface traction. Faults and dykes can be of arbitrary orientation in the half
+space.
+
+
+INPUT:
+
+Static dislocation sources are discretized into a series of planar segments. Slip
+patches are defined in terms of position, orientation, and slip, as illustrated in
+the following figure:
+
+                     N (x1)
+                    /
+                   /| Strike
+       x1,x2,x3 ->@------------------------      (x2)
+                  |\        p .            \ W
+                  :-\      i .              \ i
+                  |  \    l .                \ d
+                  :90 \  S .                  \ t
+                  |-Dip\  .                    \ h
+                  :     \. | Rake               \
+                  |      -------------------------
+                  :             L e n g t h
+                  Z (x3)
+
+Dislocations are converted to double-couple equivalent body-force analytically.
+Solution displacement is obtained by application of the Green's functions in the 
+Fourier domain.
+
+For friction faults where slip rates are evaluated from stress and a constitutive 
+law, the rake corresponds to the orientation of slip. That is, if r_i is the rake
+vector and v_i is the instantaneous velocity vector, then r_j v_j >= 0.
