Specfem3D Globe

DOI

SPECFEM3D_GLOBE simulates global and regional (continental-scale) seismic wave propagation. The program xspecfem3D from SPECFEM3D_GLOBE is a 3-D spectral-element solver for the Earth, Moon or Mars. It uses a conforming cubed-sphere mesh of hexahedra generated by program xmeshfem3D.

SPECFEM3D_GLOBE was founded by Dimitri Komatitsch and Jeroen Tromp, and is now being developed by a large, collaborative, and inclusive community. A complete list of authors can be found at https://specfem3d-globe.readthedocs.io/en/latest/authors/

Installation

Instructions on how to install and use SPECFEM3D_GLOBE are available in the

For a quick test, run the default example with these commands:

./configure FC=gfortran CC=gcc MPIFC=mpif90
make all
cd EXAMPLES/regional_Greece_small/
./run_this_example.sh

and check the output files in ./OUTPUT_FILES/

NOTE: Do not modify the 'configure' script directly. Please modify the 'configure.ac' file instead, and generate a new 'configure' script with the command: autoreconf -i
