Hi Raphael - If you write your time-dependent wave equation using a
second order time derivative you cannot use TimeLoopTheta. You can use
TimeLoopNewmark instead. (For TimeLoopTheta you should write the system
as coupled first-order equations instead).
There's a complete example with dissipation here:
