Abstract

Herein, we mainly develop a new reduced-dimension method for the unknown finite element (FE) solution coefficient vectors to the elastic wave equation containing the known singular source term, the unknown displacement vector, and the unknown stress tensor matrix. For this end, we need first to develop the Crank-Nicolson (CN) FE (CNFE) method with unconditional stability, unconditional convergence, and second-order time accuracy for the elastic wave equation and analyze the existence, unconditional stability, and errors of the CNFE solutions. After that we employ a proper orthogonal decomposition to lower the dimensionality of the unknown FE solution coefficient vectors in the CNFE method for the elastic wave equation and to design a new reduced-dimension extrapolated CNFE (RDECNFE) method. Subsequently, we employ matrix analysis to discuss the existence, unconditional stability, unconditional convergence, and errors of the RDECNFE solutions. Finally, we use two numerical examples to show the superiority of the RDECNFE method and our theoretical results. It is also shown that the RDECNFE method is feasible and effective for solving the elastic wave equation.
