Exponential integrators for second-order in time partial differential equations (Q2103429)

The authors consider two types of second-order in time partial differential equations, namely semilinear wave equations and semilinear beam equations. To solve these equations with exponential integrators, an approach to compute efficiently the action of the matrix exponential as well as those of related matrix functions, is presented. Several numerical tests are presented to show the efficiency of the approach suggested in the paper.
