[CIG-SHORT] Drucker-Prager Plasticity model

[Brad Aagaard]

Xiao,

Yes, PyLith can model regions with different bulk constitutive models. 
Most of th examples use an elastic layer over a viscoelastic layer. It 
can handle an elastoplastic layer surrounded by an elastic material.

I am not aware of any existing parameter file and/or mesh for the 
Templeton-Rice simulations.

Regards,
Brad
