Igel, Heiner,
Computational seismology : a practical introduction / Heiner Igel, Department of Earth and Enviornmental Sciences, Ludwig-Maximilians-University of Munich. - First edition. - xv, 323 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 25 cm
Includes bibliographical references and index.
About computational seismology -- Part I. Elastic waves in the earth. Seismic waves and sources ; Waves in a discrete world -- Part II. Numerical methods. The finite-difference method ; The pseudospectral method ; The finite-element method ; The spectral-element method ; The finite-volume method ; The discontinuous Galerkin method -- Part III. Applications. Applications in earth sciences ; Current challenges in computational seismology ; Appendix A: Community software and platforms in seismology.
An introductory text to a range of numerical methods used today to simulate time-dependent processes in Earth science, physics, engineering and many other fields. It looks under the hood of current simulation technology and provides guidelines on what to look out for when carrying out sophisticated simulation tasks.
