[CIG-SHORT] Fault direction in 3D fault

[Charles Williams]

Hi Jiangzhi,

One problem that I see is that I think you’ve mixed up the bc_dof for your bottom boundary (should be 2) compared to your front and back boundaries (should be 1).  Let me know if this helps.

Cheers,
Charles

I have set fault_slabtop with reverse_slip of 8 cm/yr and fault_slabbot with reverse_slip of -8 cm/yr, and used the up_dir parameter [0,0,1], but still the subduction is in wrong direction. I am not sure what is wrong. The configuration files are attached. Thanks.
