Modeling seismic wave propagation using staggered-grid mimetic finite differences
Journal Title: Bulletin of Computational Applied Mathematics (Bull CompAMa) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Mimetic finite difference (MFD) approximations of continuous gradient and divergence operators satisfy a discrete version of the Gauss-Divergence theorem on staggered grids. On the mimetic approximation of this integral conservation principle, an unique boundary flux operator is introduced that also intervenes on the discretization of a given boundary value problem (BVP). In this work, we present a second-order MFD scheme forseismic wave propagation on staggered grids that discretized free surface and absorbing boundary conditions (ABC) with same accuracy order. This scheme is time explicit after coupling a central three-level finite difference (FD) stencil for numerical integration. Here, we briefly discuss the convergence properties of this scheme and show its higher accuracy on a challenging test when compared to a traditional FD method. Preliminary applications to 2-D seismic scenarios are also presented and show the potential of the mimetic finite difference method.

Linear programming model for solution of matrix game with payoffs trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy number
In this work, we considered two-person zero-sum games with fuzzy payoffs and matrix games with payoffs of trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TrIFNs). The concepts of TrIFNs and their arithmetic operations were use...
Matrix completion via a low rank factorization model and an Augmented Lagrangean Succesive Overrelaxation Algorithm
The matrix completion problem (MC) has been approximated by using the nuclear norm relaxation. Some algorithms based on this strategy require the computationally expensive singular value decomposition (SVD) at each iter...
Transitivity of parametric family of cardinality-based fuzzy similarity measures using Lukasiewicz t-norm
In fuzzy logic, where members of a set might be linguistic terms, the degree of reflexivity might be in unit interval [0,1] instead of {0,1}. This behaviour of a fuzzy set plays an important role especially in the field...
On solution of a nonlocal problem with dynamic boundary conditions for a loaded linear parabolic equation by straight-line methods
We consider a nonlocal problem with dynamic boundary conditions for a loaded linear parabolic equation. For this problem we prove the unique solvability in Sobolev's spaces and the maximum principle under some natural c...

Formal Concept Analysis and Rough Set Theory provide two mathematical frameworks in information management which have been developed almost independently in the past. Currently, their integration is revealing very intere...
