|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 651-4008-00L | Dynamics of the Mantle and Lithosphere | 3 KP | 2G | A. Rozel | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | Das Ziel dieses Kurses ist, ein ausführliches Verständnis der physikalischen Eigenschaften, der Struktur und des dynamischen Verhaltens des Mantle-Lithosphäre Systems zu erreichen. Der Kurs fokussiert hauptsächlich auf die Erde aber bespricht auch wie diese Prozesse in anderen terrestrischen Planeten auftreten. | ||||
| Lernziel | Das Ziel dieses Kurses ist, ein ausführliches Verständnis der physikalischen Eigenschaften, der Struktur und des dynamischen Verhaltens des Umhang-Lithoshäre Systems zu erreichen, konzentriert, hauptsächlich auf Masse aber auch bespricht, wie diese Prozesse anders als in anderen terrestrischen Planeten auftreten. | ||||
| 651-4144-00L | Introduction to Finite Element Modelling in Geosciences  | 2 KP | 3G | A. Rozel, P. Sanan | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | Introduction to programming the Finite Element Method (FEM) in 1D and 2D. | ||||
| Lernziel | Topics covered include thermal diffusion, elasticity, Stokes flow, isoparametric elements, and code verification using the method of manufactured solutions. The focus is on hands-on programming, and you will learn how to write FEM codes starting with an empty MATLAB script. | ||||
| Inhalt | Course content includes brief derivation and implementation details for the Finite Element Method (FEM) for thermal diffusion, linear elasticity, and incompressible Stokes flow, using numerical quadrature and isoparametric elements. 1-dimensional examples are extended to 2 dimensions. Code verification is introduced, using the method of manufactured solutions. The focus is on hands-on programming; course exercises encourage development of a series of increasingly-complex codes, starting with an empty MATLAB script. A final project allows students flexibility to apply the method to an application of interest or to a standard problem. Note: proficient users of numerical Python are free to use that environment, instead of MATLAB. | ||||
| Skript | The script will be made available online. | ||||
| Literatur | There is no mandatory literature. Some recommended literature will be discussed and made available during the course. | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Good knowledge of MATLAB (or self-sufficiency with numerical Python), linear algebra, and knowledge of programming the finite difference method. The following courses are recommended before attending this course: 651-4241-00L Numerical Modelling I and II: Theory and Applications 651-4007-00L Continuum Mechanics 651-4003-00L Numerical Modelling of Rock Deformation | ||||
| 651-4228-00L | Topics in Planetary Sciences | 3 KP | 2G | H. Busemann, A. Rozel, M. Schönbächler, P. Tackley | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | The course is based on reading and understanding research papers. Topics vary and cover e.g. planetary geophysics, geochemistry and dynamics including new results from space missions or models of the dynamical evolution of planetary bodies as well as planet and solar system formation. Each selected research paper is presented by a student, who then also leads an open discussion on the topic. | ||||
| Lernziel | The goal of the course is to discuss topics in planetary sciences in-depth, which were not covered in the general planetary science courses. The course particularly aims at training the student's ability to critically evaluate research papers, to summarize the findings concisely in an oral presentation, to discuss the science in a group and give constructive feedback on presentations. The course should enable the students to better understand the presented research, even if not in their fields of expertise and to convey scientific results to students with a distinct study direction (geology, geochemistry or geophysics). | ||||
| Inhalt | Topics, relevant papers selected typically from the recent literature by the lecturers, will vary. Suggestions from students are welcome, but have to be discussed with a lecturer before the topics are listed and distributed. Special introductions are given to discuss good presentation practise. Topics could include, e.g.: - Formation of the solar system and the terrestrial planets - Evolution of terrestrial bodies (Mercury, Venus, Moon, Mars, Vesta and the other asteroids) - Active asteroids/main-belt comets, icy moons (Ganymede, Callisto, Enceladus), comets and the outer solar system - Geophysical, geomorphologic and geochemical exploration of planetary bodies (e.g., remote sensing, meteorite studies, seismology, modelling) - exoplanets and transiting bodies from outside the solar system | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | The students are expected to have passed either course 651-4010-00L Planetary Physics and Chemistry or course 651-4227-00L Planetary Geochemistry. | ||||
