[CIG-SHORT] Topology error

Dear Renuhaa,

It appears that you have not marked the buried edges of your fault.  You will need to provide a separate nodeset for each fault that describes the buried edges.  Please see Section 6.4.2 and 6.4.3 of the PyLith User Manual.  Note that slip along the buried edges will be set to zero.  Your mesh is very coarse, so you will likely need a mesh with much better resolution to resolve your imposed slip.

Cheers,
Charles
