[CIG-SEISMO] SPECFEM3D - Creating a mesh with topography and variable element size

[emanuele casarotti]

in the examples that I sent you you can find the topographic examples....
examples are here... https://www.dropbox.com/sh/oswn6fov5bb9c5d/yHw5yEn4oT
the script for running is there (create_mesh.py)

if you need more layers looks at the manual
https://github.com/casarotti/GEOCUBIT--experimental/tree/master/doc
for more on cfg configuration

but consider that
1) the manual is for the version 1.0 of the geocubit script but for
your case it should be perfect.
2) soon we will move in a new example structure...
3) depending of the size and resolution of your topography you could
probably need a parallel approach to the mesh (the manual require
pympi but you can use more efficiently a job array parallel execution
(qsub -J in “pbs”) see the util
https://github.com/casarotti/GEOCUBIT--experimental/blob/master/utility/jq_single.sh)

let's me know if you need more
