This book addresses students and young researchers who want to
learn to use numerical modeling to solve problems in geodynamics.
Intended as an easy-to-use and self-learning guide, readers only
need a basic background in calculus to approach most of the
material. The book difficulty increases very gradually, through
four distinct parts. The first is an introduction to the Python
techniques necessary to visualize and run vectorial calculations.
The second is an overview with several examples on classical
Mechanics with examples taken from standard introductory physics
books. The third part is a detailed description of how to write
Lagrangian, Eulerian and Particles in Cell codes for solving linear
and non-linear continuum mechanics problems. Finally the last one
address advanced techniques like tree-codes, Boundary Elements, and
illustrates several applications to Geodynamics. The entire book is
organized around numerous examples in Python, aiming at encouraging
the reader to le arn by experimenting and experiencing, not by
theory.
