[Video available] Severo Ochoa Coffee Talk - "Development and implementation of 3D hybrid-Trefftz finite elements to model high-frequency wave propagation in saturated porous media", by Natàlia Climent
ABSTRACT
One of the main problems one can encounter when modelling wave propagation in saturated and solid media using Finite Element Model (FEM) is the link between the wavelength of the wave and the size of the elements. For example, in the conventional FEM at least 10 finite elements are needed ...
