Elastic wave propagation in complex geometries: A qualitative comparison between two high order finite difference methods

Kristoffer Virta, Christopher Juhlin, Gunilla Kreiss

We compare two high order finite-difference methods that solve the elastic wave equation in two dimensional domains with curved boundaries and material discontinuities. Two numeric…

High order finite difference methods for the wave equation with non-conforming grid interfaces

Siyang Wang, Kristoffer Virta, Gunilla Kreiss

We use high order finite difference methods to solve the wave equation in the second order form. The spatial discretization is performed by finite difference operators satisfying a…

Stable difference methods for block-oriented adaptive grids

Anna Nissen, Katharina Kormann, Magnus Grandin +1

In this paper, we present a block-oriented scheme for adaptive mesh refinement based on summation-by-parts (SBP) finite difference methods and simultaneous-approximation-term (SAT)…

Surface Waves in Almost Incompressible Elastic Materials

Kristoffer. Virta, Gunilla. Kreiss

A recent study shows that the classical theory concerning accuracy and points per wavelength is not valid for surface waves in almost incompressible elastic materials. The grid siz…
