Elmer Ice Sheet modeling

From Elmer Wiki

Currently, the largest homogeneous user group of Elmer is within Glaciology, which deals with all aspects of frozen water, commonly known as ice. Especially the dynamics of ice masses (ice-sheets and -shelves, glaciers) have been/are objects of investigations using Elmer as the numerical tool.
