One-way and one-return approximations (de Wolf approximation) for fast elastic wave modelling in complex media (R.S. Wu, X.B. Xie, X.Y. Wu). 6. Simulation of high-frequency wave propagation in complex crustal waveguides using generalized screen propagators (R.S. Wu, X.Y. Wu, X.B. Xie). 7. Spectral-element analysis in seismology (E. Chaljub, D. Komatitsch, et al.). 8. The finite-difference time-domain method for modeling of seismic wave propagation (P. Moczo, J. Robertson, L. Eisner). 9.
