3) A work in progress: Elastic waves (displayed only for t in [0, 20], the whole time interval is [0, 100]): the right edge is accelerated in the right direction 

and its velocity is v=a*t, where a is a constant acceleration. The left edge is fixed.  

    von Mises stress                       kinetic energy

At the time t_stop=100/3 the right edge is held still and the continuum has therefore a permanent stress field and keeps on vibrating in its domain.

The sum of the stored elastic and the kinetic energy is preserved after the time t_stop thanks to the (Crank-Nicolson) numerical scheme.
