Numerical simulations of the interaction between
convection and pulsation in stars

The interaction between convection and pulsation allows access to the physics of convection by detailed studies of their pulsation properties. Both high precision data and numerical simulations of the stars are tools which allow a better understanding of these processes. In this talk I present applications of the ANTARES simulation code used to study the convection-pulsation interaction, chiefly of p-modes in main sequence stars, though also results on other objects will be considered. Investigations of the so-called near-surface effect, mode damping, and overshooting will be considered.
