[CIG-SHORT] Uniform time-stepping for long runs on viscoelastic domain (Brad Aagaard)

[Michal Dichter]

Dear Brad,


Please disregard my last response. It seems that the cause of the problem that I have been describing has been with the nondimensionalization of time. (I stumbled upon a PyLith FAQ sort-of page where the importance of nondimensionalization was emphasized.) I changed my "relaxation_time" parameter to be equal to dt rather than to the minimum relaxation time. This enabled my code to run to completion and output the expected number of files. Thank you again for your help in this matter.


All the best,


Michal
