Introduction to Finite Element Modeling Techniques - Deformation of the Lithosphere under Extension with Examples from Rifts and Ridges

Lecturers: Marta Pérez Gussinyé

Content:

This course is oriented to introduce the students in numerical modelling in Geosciences using finite element techniques. Modelling problems range from simple diffusion equations to more sophisticated modelling of deformation of Earth`s materials.

Competences:

Introduction and application to finite element modelling in Geosciences

Assessment:

Oral presentation

Exam Form:

colloquium

Literature:

1) Practical finite element modelling in Earth Science using Matlab - Guy Simpson
2) Gerya: Introduction to numerical geodynamic modelling
