Classical, quantum and numerical aspects of modified theories of gravity by Beckering Vinckers, Ulrich Karoo

“…Lastly, we consider the application of numerical relativity techniques to f(R) gravity models. It is well-known that the Baumgarte-Shapiro-Shibata-Nakamura (BSSN) modification of the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formulation of General Relativity is suitable for the construction of numerical relativity codes. …”
