SeisSol
Description
SeisSol is an open-source software for the simulation of seismic, acoustic, and tsunami wave propagation and earthquake rupture dynamics. The software utilizes the arbitrary high-order accurate derivative discontinuous Galerkin method (ADER-DG) to allow high-order accuracy in space and time. SeisSol supports complex 3D model geometries using tetrahedral meshes and handles various material models, including acoustic, elastic, viscoelastic, poroelastic, and viscoplastic rheologies. SeisSol is optimized for running on large-scale parallel computing architectures.
