Project: "Bayesian - Reduced-Order inversion scheme for nonlinear problems with applications to lithospheric structure"
The idea of the project is to solve an inverse problem regarding the lithospheric structure parameters. To this end, a large number of results of the forward Stokes flow problem in a three-dimensional domain are required. Solving the problem at an affordable computational cost, the full order finite element method and reduced-order approaches are used. A smart implementation of the nonlinear rheological parameter description is aimed, for physical completeness, at both the full and reduced-order approaches.
