Closed access Metadata (CSL-JSON)
DOI 10.1145/3410352.3410774
Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this article we demonstrate an application of an advanced geophysical software tool to simulate wave propagation and generate shot records. Simulation of seismic wave propagation was performed using eScript, a partial differential equation solver based on the finite element method. We solved the 2D acoustic wave equation for P-wave propagation by applying the partial differential equation to eScript. Model tests prove that eScript is a user-friendly software platform which allows rapid development of numerical seismic modeling using python.
