Description
In this seminar we address numerical methods for hyperbolic partial differential equations. We discuss important examples of governing equations, namely the elastic wave equations (earthquakes) and shallow water equations (tsunamis). In this context challenges typical for hyperbolic PDEs are tackled: Non-linearities, Riemann solvers, dimensional splitting, high-order discretization.. Besides numerical theory a strong focus of the seminar is given by application and implementation of the learned concepts: Each participant works during the seminar on a small project, which requires extensive use of the learned theory.
