geodynamics / sw4

SW4 (Seismic Waves, 4th order) implements substantial capabilities for 3-D seismic modeling, with a free surface condition on the top boundary, absorbing super-grid conditions on the far-field boundaries, and an arbitrary number of point force and/or point moment tensor source terms.

HELP-About the kind of waves #163

Closed BFF-LEI-Lei closed 1 year ago

BFF-LEI-Lei commented 1 year ago

Hi everyone, In sw4, I wonder how to define a source only producing a specific kind of wave, like P-waves, SV-waves, or SH-waves? Or perhaps, no matter a point source or a rupture just yields P-waves and S-waves simultaneously?

Point sources generate all kinds of waves according to the physics of seismic wave propagation.
