slabs in 3D spherical model

[ZonglinGuo]

Hi, in my spherical 3D model, I intented to set a trench form (30,-15) to (30,15). When I run "gwbgrid this.wb 3D.grid" to do a test, the result is perfect, however there are some anomaly for slabs when I run in supercomputer, as shown in attached file and code. Any suggestion? { "model":"oceanic plate", "name":"Subducting Oceanic plate", "max depth":100e3, "coordinates":[[-30,-15],[30,-15],[30,15],[-30,15]],

   "composition models":[{"model":"uniform", "compositions":[0], "max depth":100e3}]
},
{ 
  "model":"subducting plate", "name":"Slab2", "dip point":[50,0],
  "coordinates":[[30,-15],[30,15]],
  "segments":
    [
      {"length":300e3, "thickness":[100e3],  "angle":[0,60],
       "composition models":[
        {"model":"uniform", "compositions":[0], "max distance slab top":100e3}]},
      {"length":600e3, "thickness":[100e3], "angle":[60],
       "composition models":[
        {"model":"uniform", "compositions":[0], "max distance slab top":100e3}]}
    ]
}

Thanks for reporting the issue. Can you post the whole world builder file (.wb) and your grid file (.grid)? Thanks!

Yes, this is my .wb file,both of two slabs are tricky as shown in my previous figure. { "version": "0.6", "coordinate system":{"model":"spherical", "depth method":"begin segment", "radius":1.0}, "features": [

Here is 3D grid file:

grid_type = chunk dim = 3 compositions = 4

domain of the grid

x_min = -180 x_max = 180 y_min = -90 y_max = 90 z_min = 5771e3 z_max = 6371e3

low res grid properties

n_cell_x = 720 n_cell_y = 360 n_cell_z = 40

I can get the model throught the gwb-grid which you showed in the top image. Is the bottom image run through aspect? If so, can you provide the top part of the log.txt file and if possible the .prm file?
