AuScope Underworld Archive

The Underworld framework has been developed to produce a suite of tools that can be used by researchers to simulate large-scale earth processes, such as plate/mantle interaction and basin development. The Underworld collection details the core set of phenomena modelled and distributed with Underworld, including lithospheric deformation, slab subduction, mantle convection, heat flow at the regional scale, crustal heat transport by fluid flow at low temperature, a hot-dry rock simulator and geothermal, multiphase-fluid-transport engineering models. The collection also includes a suite of benchmarks and verification models.

Underworld框架（Underworld framework）旨在开发一套工具集，供研究人员用于模拟大规模地球过程，例如板块-地幔相互作用与盆地演化。Underworld工具集（Underworld collection）详细介绍了随Underworld一同分发的核心建模现象集合，涵盖岩石圈变形（lithospheric deformation）、板片俯冲（slab subduction）、地幔对流（mantle convection）、区域尺度热流、低温流体流动驱动的地壳热输运、干热岩模拟器（hot-dry rock simulator）以及地热、多相流体输运（multiphase-fluid-transport）工程模型。该工具集还包含一系列基准测试与验证模型。
