We use a hybrid PSM/FDM method on staggered grids to solve the wave equations and implement the calculation on a parallel PC cluster to improve the computing efficiency. Features of global SH-wave propagation are firstly discussed for a 100-km shallow and900-km deep moonquakes, respectively. Effects of frequency range and lateral variation of crust thickness are then investigated with various models. Our synthetic waveforms are finally compared with observed Apollo data to show the features of wave propagation that were produced by our model and those not reproduced by our models. Our numerical modeling show that the low-velocity upper crust plays significant role in the development of reverberating wave trains. Increasing frequency enhances the strength and duration of the reverberations.Surface multiples dominate wavefields for shallow event.Core–mantle reflections can be clearly identified for deep event at low frequency. The layered whole Moon model and the low-velocity upper crust produce the reverberating wave trains following each phases consistent with observation. However, more realistic Moon model should be considered in order to explain the strong and slow decay scattering between various phases shown on observation data.展开更多

But broadcast-class problems, existing only on parallel computer system, have no sequential algorithms at all. Speedup standard becomes invalid here. Through this research on broadcast algorithms under several typical parallel computation models,a model-independent evaluation standard min C2 is developed, which can be not only used to determine an optimal broadcasting algorithm, but also normalized to apply to any parallel algorithm. As a new idea, min C2 will lead to a new way in this field.展开更多
