Description
This release includes the following changes:
- New: Choice between different formulations for the governing equations including Boussinesq and anelastic liquid approximation.
- New: Melt transport (two-phase flow).
- Particles: new generators, ghost exchange, performance improvements, interpolation to fields.
- New: Nondimensional material model for incompressible (using the Boussinesq approximation) and compressible computations (with ALA or TALA) for nondimensionalized problems. This can be used for benchmark problems like Blankenbach, King, etc..
- New: Optional DG method for temperature/composition.
- Adiabatic conditions: rework, now includes a reference density profile
- Free surface: overhaul.
- New cookbooks: continental extension, finite strain.
- New benchmarks: TanGurnis, Blankenbach, King.
- New: viscoplastic material model.
- Material model interface cleanup.
- Assembly performance improvements.
- New: memory statistics postprocessor.
- New: initial topography plugins.
- Many other fixes and small improvements.
