In this paper, we firstly derive the stability conditions of high-order staggered-grid schemes for the three-dimensional (3D) elastic wave equation in heterogeneous media based on the energy method. Moreover, the plane wave analysis yields a sufficient and necessary stability condition by the von Neumann criterion in homogeneous case. Numerical computations for 3D wave simulation with point source excitation are given.
