Modelling of the isostatic loading of the earth's crust in three dimensions is a difficult problem due to the length scales involved, the lack of scalability of the underlying equations and the slow convergence of the solution under conventional techniques. In this paper, a new method to solve the three-dimensional (3D) flexure equation has been developed. The long-standing challenge in numerically modelling flexural isostasy at large scale and high rigidity is addressed. The program is capable of modelling both local and regional isostatic compensation. Compared with other schemes, the isostatic model presented here is more robust and computationally efficient. |
