add compensating vertical influx velocities #205

Hi @rbeucher

I want to use UEGeo to Investigate the process of fault formation at mid-ocean ridge. How can I add compensating vertical influx velocities which are constant along the whole upper and lower boundaries are derived from spreading to ensure conservation of model volume?

You are gonna have to work out the maths. If you define Dirichlet conditions on 3 out of 4 walls you will have conservation of mass as stokes is solving for it.
