University of Pittsburgh offers many academic skills workshops.Disability Resource ServicesIf you have a disability for which you are or may be requesting an accommodation, you are encouraged to contact both your instructor and Disability Resources and Services (DRS), 140 William Pitt Union, 412-648-7890, drsrecep@pitt.edu, (412) 228-5347 for P3 ASL users, as early as possible in the term. DRS will verify your disability and determine reasonable accommodations for this course.Academic IntegrityThe University of Pittsburgh Academic Integrity Code is available at -integrity-freedom/academic-integrity-guidelines. The code states that "A student has an obligation to exhibit honesty and to respect the ethical standards of the academy in carrying out his or her academic assignments."The website lists examples of actions that violate this code. Students are expected to adhere to the Academic Integrity Code, and violations of the code will be dealt with seriously.On homework, you may work with other students or use library resources,but each student must write up his or her solutions independently.Copying solutions from other students will be considered cheating,and handled accordingly.

We develop a stable finite difference method for the elastic wave equation in bounded media, where the material properties can be discontinuous at curved interfaces. The governing equation is discretized in second order form by a fourth or sixth order accurate summation-by-parts operator. The mesh size is determined by the velocity structure of the material, resulting in nonconforming grid interfaces with hanging nodes. We use order-preserving interpolation and the ghost point technique to couple adjacent mesh blocks in an energy-conserving manner, which is supported by a fully discrete stability analysis. In our previous work for the wave equation, two pairs of order-preserving interpolation operators were needed when imposing the interface conditions weakly by a penalty technique. Here, we only use one pair in the ghost point method. In numerical experiments, we demonstrate that the convergence rate is optimal and is the same as when a globally uniform mesh is used in a single domain. In addition, with a predictor-corrector time integration method, we obtain time stepping stability with stepsize almost the same as that given by the usual Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy condition. 2ff7e9595c
