ABSTRACT = {This paper completes a preceeding paper on the algebraic formulation of elastostatics [Tonti, Zarantonello (2009)]. It shows how to obtain a numerical formulation for elastodynamics by avoiding any process of discretization of differential equations, i.e. PDE-free formulation. To this end, we must analyse in more detail the discretization of time by highlighting the need to introduce a dual subdivision of the time axis, as we did for a space cell complex. The mass matrix obtained with the direct algebraic formulation is diagonal.},
