⁠ASPECT - Advanced Solver for Problems in Earth's ConvecTion

⁠About

ASPECT is a code to simulate convection in Earth's mantle and elsewhere. It has grown from a pure mantle-convection code into a tool for many geodynamic applications including applications for inner core convection, lithospheric scale deformation, two-phase flow, and numerical methods development. The project is supported by CIG (http://geodynamics.org⁠).

• For questions on the source code of ASPECT, portability, installation, new or existing features, etc., use the ASPECT forum⁠. This forum is where the ASPECT users and developers all hang out. Archived discussions from the inactive aspect-devel mailing list can be downloaded at aspect-devel archives⁠.

• ASPECT is primarily based on the deal.II library. If you have particular questions about deal.II, contact the deal.II discussion groups⁠.

• In case of more general questions about mantle convection, you can contact the CIG mantle convection mailing lists⁠.

• A complete and growing list of the many authors that have contributed over the years can be found at github⁠

• If you have specific questions about ASPECT that are not suitable for public and archived mailing lists, feel free to contact the maintainers or principal developers.
