GLACIER
Steady 2D Stokes Model of a Glacier


GLACIER is a FENICS script which defines the steady 2D Stokes equations for a model of the motion of ice in a glacier, by William Mitchell.

Since this example was published, FENICS has changed, and several commands used in the example no longer work. This seems to happen A LOT.
