"FARMS" : Fault And Rupture Mechanics Simulations

Description

FARMS is a MOOSE-based application (https://github.com/idaholab/moose.git) for simulating dynamic rupture and earthquake problem.

Features

• Various Frictional Laws: Slip Weakening, Rate-and-State Friction with SCEC Benchmark Verification.

• Complex Fault Geometry: Nonplanar Fault (main fault with branches / branch network).

• Kinematics: Small-strain and Finite deformation

• Additional Constitutive Law: Continuum Damage-Breakage Rheology Model.

• Multphysics Coupling: Poroelasticity

Compile and Run

1. Install MOOSE: https://mooseframework.inl.gov/getting_started/installation/

2. Inside ~/projects/ folder, clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/chunhuizhao478/farms.git

3. Inside ~/projects/farms folder, run the code: make -j8

4. To run code, for example:

For single core: ./farms-opt -i examples/benchmark_tpv2052D/tpv2052D.i

For multiple cores: mpirun -np #[num of cores] ./farms-opt -i examples/benchmark_tpv2052D/tpv2052D.i
