Abstract

In a series of two talks we are going to give a detailed introduction into some of the more technical aspects of the mantel convection simulation code Terra. The plan is to deal with the mathematical-physical model, numerical treatment of the PDEs and especially to consider details of the algorithmics and their implementation. Part 3 focusses on details of the Finite Element discretisation of the generalised Stokes problem and its solution.
