Analysis of dynamic ruptures generating seismic waves in a self-gravitating planet: an iterative coupling scheme and well-posedness

We study the solution of the system of equations describing the dynamical evolution of spontaneous ruptures generated in a prestressed elastic-gravitational deforming body and governed by rate and state friction laws. We propose an iterative coupling scheme based on a weak formulation with nonlinear interior boundary conditions, both for continuous time and with implicit discretization (backward Euler) in time. We regularize the problem by introducing viscosity. This guarantees the convergence of the scheme for solutions of the regularized problems in both cases. We also make precise the conditions on the relevant coefficients for convergence to hold.

A Discontinuous Galerkin method with a modified penalty flux for the propagation and scattering of acousto-elastic waves

We develop an approach for simulating acousto-elastic wave phenomena, including scattering from fluid-solid boundaries, where the solid is allowed to be anisotropic, with the Discontinuous Galerkin method. We use a coupled first-order elastic strain-velocity, acoustic velocity-pressure formulation, and append penalty terms based on interior boundary continuity conditions to the numerical (central) flux so that the consistency condition holds for the discretized Discontinuous Galerkin weak formulation. We incorporate the fluid-solid boundaries through these penalty terms and obtain a stable algorithm. Our approach avoids the diagonalization into polarized wave constituents such as in the approach based on solving elementwise Riemann problems.
