Description

SeisSol is a sophisticated software package designed for simulating seismic wave propagation and dynamic rupture processes. It utilizes the arbitrary high-order accurate derivative discontinuous Galerkin method (ADER-DG) to allow precise approximations in time and space. The software supports complex 3D model geometries using tetrahedral meshes and handles various material models including elastic, viscoelastic, and viscoplastic to reflect realistic geological conditions. SeisSol is capable of running on large-scale parallel computing architectures, ensuring efficiency in processing and accuracy in seismological data simulation.

Key Features:

  • High-order accurate ADER-DG method for precise time and space approximations.
  • Support for complex 3D tetrahedral meshes.
  • Capable of handling elastic, viscoelastic, and viscoplastic material models.
  • Optimized for large-scale parallel computing environments.
