Abstract
The simulation of wave propagation through highly heterogeneous media is important in many applications, e.g., seismic and ultrasound modeling and imaging. In these applications, material parameters may vary widely over short length scales. In practice, these rapid variations are often modeled with hyperbolic partial differential equations having discontinuous parameters.
