We introduce a Pseudo-Spectral Time-Domain (PSTD) method to simulate acoustic wave propagation in soft biological tissues, incorporating frequency-dependent power-law absorption and dispersion. A comprehensive Von-Neumann ...

The main objective of this work is to effectively design an apriori Reduce Order Method solver to solve parametric high dimensional geophysical problems in a cost effective and fast manner.

We have developed a von Neumann stability and dispersion analysis of two time-integration techniques in the framework of Fourier pseudospectral (PS) discretizations of the second-order wave equation. The first technique ...

In Finite Element Methods for solving electromagnetic problems, the use of Nédélec Elements has become very popular. In fact, Nédélec Elements are often said to be a cure to many difficulties that are encountered, particularly ...

This book brings together a series of theory and practice essays on risk management and adaptation in urban contexts within a resilient and multidimensional perspective. The book proposes a transversal approach with regard ...

Nowadays, the electromagnetic modelling are a fun-damental tool in geophysics due to their wide field of application: hydrocarbon and mineral exploration, reservoir monitoring, CO􀀀 storage characterization, geothermal ...

One of the most common ways to represent results of the probabilistic seismic hazard assessments (PSHA) are maps of seismic hazard, which usually show values of Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) in a region for a return period. ...

Deadly earthquakes are events that are unpredictable, relatively rare and have a huge impact upon the lives of those who suffer their consequences. Furthermore, each earthquake has specific characteristics (location, ...
