Topics
The seminar will deal with numerical methods, in particular with Finite Volume and discontinuous Galerkin methods, required for the simulation of earthquakes and tsunamis:
- Propagation of seismic waves and tsunamis
- Fundamentals of Finite Volume methods (fluxes, Riemann problems)
- Discontinuous Galerkin method
- FV and DG methods applied to wave propagation
- numerical problems for simulation of realistic problem settings
