Abstract

In the present paper, we generalize the conservative space-time mesh refinement presented in [6] to the elastodynamic equations. We also propose a post-treatement of the solution, introduced in [13], that reduces the spurious phenomena due to the nonconformity between the time meshes. A reinterpretation of the equations in terms of new unknowns leads to a new scheme with second order consistent coupling equations. Numerical experiments in the 1D and 2D cases and a plane wave analysis for the 1D model show that the method is second order accurate for an arbitrary refinement.
