Here the D'Alembert formula with initial velocity becomesWhen $t>1$ andthe integration interval contains the whole support $[-1,1]$. Since $g$ is odd,Thus the requested region containing the line $x=0$ isThis is the central zero region for odd compactly supported initial velocity. The initial disturbance splits into left-moving and right-moving waves; after they pass, their opposite signed impulses cancel and leave an expanding undisturbed region around the origin.
