Galerkin - finite element method for elastic wave equations with interface

In this dissertation an elastic parabolic wave equation which approximates the linear elastic wave equations in a depth-dependent medium with fluid/solid interface is considered. A Galerkin Finite Element Method is developed for the discretization in the depth dimension with particular emphasis on t...
