Application of the finite difference method in seismic source and wave diffraction simulation
Geophysical Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society
(1986)
Abstract
The simulation of seismic sources and the interaction of the resulting elastic waves and topography is discussed for an explosive source in a half-space and in a half-space containing a slot or a step using the finite difference method. Displacement fields (numerical visualisations), synthetic seismograms, relative intensities and wave spectral analyses are the main data produced.
