Grid Project: Reverse Fault Benchmark
|
|
Close up view of variable resolution mesh.
The finest cells have edge length of ~125m. The fault tip has increased
resolution. The slip distribution is mapped onto fault nodes as a floating
point attribute.
|
Cut away view of uniform resolution, 1000m
mesh. The slip distribution is mapped onto fault nodes as a floating
point attribute.
|
|
|
|
|
Purpose of Project
Build grids of various resolution (1000m, 500m, 250m, variable) for reverse
fault benchmark calculation.

Refine Faults, No Smoothing
|
|
|
|
This starts with a uniform
mesh of 1000 m resolution and then refines just the elements adjacent to
the fault to 125 m (res_03).

Refine Faults, With Smoothing
|
|
|
|
This starts with a uniform
mesh of 1000 m resolution and then refines just the elements adjacent to
the fault to 125 m (res_03). In addition, smoothing is applied to interior
nodes to produce a more isotropic mesh.

What is in the files?
*.gmv - this is a standard GMV file. Mostly for graphics if you use GMV to view grids.
*.inp - this is an AVS format file of the node coordinate list and the tet connectivity.
*.table - this is a table of node attributes for each mesh.
The first column is the node number.
The second column is a node attribute, 'if_fault'. It is 0 for nodes not on the fault
plane, it is > 0 for nodes on the fault plane.
The third column is a node attribute, 'slip', that is 1.0 and tapers to 0.0 according to the specifications of the benchmark description.
The fourth column is a node attribute, 'top', = 1 if a top node, = -5 if not a top node
The fifth column is a node attribute, 'bottom', = 2 if a bottom node, = -5 if not a bottom node
The sixth column is a node attribute, 'left_w', = 3 if a left side node, = -5 if not a left side node
The seventh column is a node attribute, 'right_e', = 5 if a right side node, = -5 if not a right side node
The eight column is a node attribute, 'back_n', = 6 if a back side node, = -5 if not a back side node
The ninth column is a node attribute, 'front_s', = 4 if a front side node, = -5 if not a front side node
*.zone - this is the same information as provide in the *.table file for the top, bottom, left, ... except
the list is not all nodes. There is a list of just top nodes (by node number), a list of just bottom nodes, etc.
NOTE: For *.table and *.zone there are some nodes that appear in more than one list. For example a corner node
may appear in the top,left and front list.
