This is work in progress towards adding PREM

stdye commented 8 months ago

Now that the code for calculating the PREM density (rho) is working, the next task is to add code that calculates: 1) the volume of each shell [ vol_shell = 4/3 pi ( r_out^3 - r_in^3) ] 2) the mass of each shell [ mass_shell = rho_shell * vol_shell ] 3) the masses of each PREM layer (i.e. inner core, outer core, lower mantle, transition zone, LVZ, LID, Crust), where mass_layer = sum(mass_shell)

This works. Just need to replace the entered constants MANTLE_MASS and MANTLE_GEOPHYSICAL_RESPONSE with values calculated internally with the now added PREM model
