Numerical models allow us to gather new information on many natural processes that was not possible to obtain using only conventional field, theoretical and experimental approaches. In this chapter, simple 2D and 3D numerical models, based on iterated maps, are presented with the aim of defining a general numerical scheme containing the main building blocks of magma mixing processes. These numerical systems will be used as kinematic templates to study the topology of this process and will be used in the rest of this book as prototypical magma mixing systems.
