The stochastic perturbation theory of Papanicolaou and Keller [SIAM J. Appl. Math. 21, 287 (1971)] is applied directly in the space-time regime to derive transport equations for the first and second moments of the solution. These equations are solved in special cases.application/pdfenIn Copyrightinitial value problemsnumerical modellingperturbation theorywave equationswave propagationA multiple-scales space-time analysis of a randomly perturbed one-dimensional wave equationArticle - Refereedhttp://scitation.aip.org/content/aip/journal/jmp/18/10/10.1063/1.523155Journal of Mathematical Physicshttps://doi.org/10.1063/1.523155
