Dear Aspect Development Team,
I hope this message finds you well. My name is Yuan, a novice Aspect user currently studying subduction dynamics through the Cookbook examples:
- Subduction initiation from Matsumoto and Tomoda (1983)
- Continental extension
While attempting to perform thermo-viscoelastic numerical simulations using 20 MPI cores, the computation persistently stagnates at the initial timestep (Timestep 0). I have carefully reviewed the .prm configuration parameters and verified MPI environment settings, but the issue remains unresolved.
For your reference, I have attached:

Please accept my sincere gratitude for your continued development of this outstanding geodynamic modeling tool. Any guidance you could provide would significantly advance my understanding of Aspect’s parallel computation workflow.
Thank you in advance for your time and expertise.
Kind regards,
Yuan
