Abstract


The finite difference method is quite extensively used to obtain the approximate solutions of many equations of mathematical physics. In this study, the precise algorithm in the time domain is combined with the generalized finite difference method to solve dynamic viscoelasticity problems. The numerical results obtained are satisfactory, and they are presented together with finite difference and finite element solutions.
