Stability of the free-surface problem arising in ice-sheet- and glacier modeling : Numerical investigation and stabilization
This thesis consists of two papers dealing with a stabilization method for free-surface flows. The method was initially developed to stabilize mantle-convection simulations, but is in this work extended to ice-sheet- and glacier modeling. The objective of this thesis is to assess the method when app...
