Abstract

This paper outlines a Finite Element modelling workflow using the software package ‘Underworld’ that is applied to sedimentary basin undergoing multiple rifting events. The evolution of the resulting strain rate, viscosity structure, temperature field, and sedimentary structures can be tracked. Application to the Ceduna Sub-basin is discussed.
