Geodynamic modelling philosophies
The two overarching geodynamic modelling philosophies: Specific modelling and generic modelling.
The 101 Geodynamic Modelling effort brings the fundamental basics of numerical geodynamic modelling of the solid Earth to modelling experts as well as non-modellers to enable more effective cross-disciplinary modelling studies.

Effective visualisation (geodynamic modelling)
Effective visualisation through a scientific use of colours.
Geodynamic modelling kinematic descriptions
Kinematical descriptions for a compressed upper-mantle geodynamic numerical model setup.
Geodynamic modelling problems
