[CIG-SHORT] use pylith to model magma chamber

[Brad Aagaard]

Xiaopeng,

We tend to focus on earthquake related examples because those are the 
types of problems most of our users are interested in. It is possible to 
model inflation of magma chambers, but we don't have a good example. I 
will try to find one that I created a few years ago and have it 
available for the workshop.

Charles has done some volcano modeling with PyLith and can probably 
answer your questions in more detail.

Regards,
Brad
