Discontinuous Galerkin methods for solving the acoustic wave equation
In this work we develop a numerical simulator for the propagation of elastic waves by solving the one-dimensional acoustic wave equation with Absorbing Boundary Conditions (ABC’s) on the computational boundaries using Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Methods (DGFEM). The DGFEM allows us to easi...

| Sumario: | In this work we develop a numerical simulator for the propagation of elastic waves by solving the one-dimensional acoustic wave equation with Absorbing Boundary Conditions (ABC’s) on the computational boundaries using Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Methods (DGFEM). The DGFEM allows us to easily simulate the presence of a fracture in the elastic medium by means of a linear-slip model. We analize the behaviour of our algorithm by comparing its results against analytic solutions. Furthermore, we show the frequency-dependent effect on the propagation produced by the fracture as appears in previous works. Finally, we present an analysis of the numerical parameters of the method. |
