Discrete Element Method model results of laccolith intrusion inflation on the Moon, Mars, and Earth

This data set provides the results of two-dimensional (2D) Discrete Element Method (DEM) modeling of magmatic laccolith intrusion inflation performed by Poppe et al. (2024), with the commercial Particle Flow Code 2D version 7.0 (PFC2D 7.0) under a restricted educational license from Itasca Consultants GmbH.

This data set contains:

1. The compressed folder “Poppe_etal_2024_Raw_data.zip”: .txt files containing numerical model properties directly exported from DEM model results. Raw data are listed and described in sections 2.1 and 3.

2. The compressed folder “Poppe_etal_2024_Processed_data.zip”: .txt files of output from processing of PFC DEM output. Processed data are listed and described in sections 2.2 and 4.

3. The compressed folder “Poppe_etal_2024_Scripts.zip”: .py Python scripts used to process PFC DEM output or plot figures in Poppe et al. (2024). Scripts are listed and described in section 5.

4. The explanatory notice “Poppe_etal_2024_Explanatory_Notice_Data_Publication.pdf”.
