Problems
The aim of this Section is to describe which solvers and user functions can be used to solve a given type of glaciological problems.
Elmer/Ice capabilities are listed below:
-
-
Various
rheology (Glen’s law, firn/snow, two anisotropic flow laws, Damage)
-
Evolution equations for density,
fabric, …
-
Evaluation of the
eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a tensor (strain-rate, stress)
-
-
-
-
Inverse methods (linear adjoint and Arthern and Gudmundsson's 2010 methods)
Different solvers to
read and interpolate data on the mesh
-
-
The table below summarizes the Elmer/Ice capabilities for forward and inverse problems.
