Effective Computational Methods for Wave Propagation

This volume presents several modern valuable computational methods used to describe wave propagation phenomena in selected areas of physics and technology. It begins with the simulation of nonlinear dispersive waves from nonlinear optics and the theory and numerical analysis of Boussinesq systems. The next section focuses on computational approaches for mathematical models of underwater sound propagation and scattering. The book then offers a comprehensive introduction to modern numerical methods for time-dependent elastic wave propagation. The final part supplies an overview of high-order low diffusion numerical methods for complex compressible flows of aerodynamics.
