S point 2 writes "Google has announced that they have hired Codeweavers, maker of the popular Wine software to make Photoshop run better on Linux. 'Photoshop is one of those applications that desktop Linux users are constantly clamoring for, and we're happy to say they work pretty well now...We look forward to further improvements in this area.' It is unknown whether or not the entire Creative Suite will be funded for support, but for the time being it seems Photoshop-on-Linux development is getting a new priority under Google."

I have experience is simulating elastic wave in solid (homogeneous) media. I've successfully used second order finite difference to simulate Lamb waves for a 2D case. My work was based on that by Lee and Staszewski http://www.iop.org/EJ/article/0964-1726/12/5/018/s ms3_5_018.pdf I've also heard of people using spectral elements for this. http://lsec.cc.ac.cn/~cjxu/SEM_mem.html P.S. I'm a /. lurker. Only created an account to post this, hope it helps.
