A fourth-order accurate finite-difference program for the simulation of SH-wave propagation in het- erogeneous viscoelastic medium

چکیده
This article presents a staggered grid time-domain finite-difference (FD) program for the simulation of sH-wave propagation in a viscoelastic heterogeneous medium. The incorporation of realistic damping in FD program is based on a rheological model widely known as generalized maxwell body (gmB-EK). The accuracy of implementation of realistic damping is validated by comparing the numerically computed frequency dependent quality factors and phase velocity with the same computed using gmB-EK rheological model and the Futterman’s relationship. The accuracy was also validated by comparing the numerically computed soil amplification at resonance frequency for different damping with the analytical solutions. The stability and grid dispersion are also studied in details.

Among different discretization approaches, Finite Difference Method (FDM) is widely used for acoustic and elastic full-wave form modeling. An inevitable deficit of the technique, however, is its sever requirement to computational resources. A promising solution is parallelization, where the problem is broken into several segments, and the calculations are distributed over different processors. ...
