Advances in Numerical Methods

Abstract

This report summarizes work conducted over a two year period to improve numerical methods. The report has three main sections. Section 2 covers work on synthetics for layered earth models. Section 3 reports on three-dimensional (3D) elastic finite difference calculations and the relationship between one-dimensional (1D) (layered earth) and 3D laterally heterogeneous wavefields. Section 4 reports on development of a finite difference program to model the response of permeable hoses to atmospheric pressure fluctuations from wind turbulence.
