Optimized wavelet-Galerkin templates

We compare the Acousmod2d and optimized wavelet-Galerkin methods. These solutions are for the one-dimensional wave equation with periodic boundary conditions on a line size $ N=1024$. The wave speed and density are $ 1$ in the low speed region, and $ 4$ and $ 1/4$ in the high speed region, resp. The high speed region extends from grid points $ 32$ to $ 198$. The interface conditions are nonreflecting. The source term is a second derivative Ricker wavelet. The grid points per median wavelength range through $ 12.5$, $ 10$, $ 8$, $ 6$, $ 4$, $ 3$, and $ 2$. The solutions are plotted as the evolve with time. The right moving wave quickly enters and exits the high speed region. Then both waves propagate in the low speed to the right and left. The calculation is continued until the two waves nearly meet.
