Research Abstract |
In this study we have developed a suite of numerical programs for world-class simulations of three-dimensional mantle convection. The suite, including the models with Cartesian and spherical shell geometries, enables us to conduct simulation studies of mantle convection with extremely high spatial resolutions as well as those with physical properties of modeled fluid relevant to terrestrial mantle materials.
