Abstract
Numerical simulation of wave propagation in heterogeneous media is widely used in engineering and various applications. However, direct numerical simulation of wave propagation in such media is often impractical due to the need for extremely small time steps and fine spatial grids. In this paper, we propose a new multiscale model reduction method for solving the wave equation in heterogeneous media by combining the generalized multiscale finite element method (GMsFEM) with exponential integrators (EI). For spatial discretization, we construct local multiscale basis functions within the GMsFEM framework to capture microscopic behavior. EI enhances time integration stability, overcoming limitations of traditional finite difference schemes for time discretizations in high-contrast media. Three numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of our method.
