Objective
The objective of the project is to formulate and improve mathematical models for certain problems in geosciences and to develop numerical methods and software packages for these, which can be implemented efficiently on parallel computers.
The problems will be formulated in mathematical form as two- and three-dimensional partial differential equations as used in elasticity and plasticity. The models will be written in numerical form and implemented on high performance computers. The software so developed will be tested on real sized problems and the tests will be analysed and compared with in situ observations and experience to make further improvements to the models.
INFORMATION DISSEMINATION ACTIVITIES
Results of the project will be used by one industrial partner in designing new mine technologies, and by another in construction of highways, bridges and tunnels.
