چکیده

The numerical solution of the time dependent wave equation in an unbounded domain generally leads to a truncation of this domain, which requires the introduction of an artificial boundary with associated boundary conditions. Such nonreflecting conditions ensure the equivalence between the solution of the original problem in the unbounded region and the solution inside the artificial boundary. We consider the acoustic wave equation and derive exact transparent boundary conditions that are local in time and can be directly used in explicit methods. These conditions annihilate wave harmonics up to a given order on a spherical artificial boundary, and we show how to combine the derived boundary condition with a finite difference method. The analysis is complemented by a numerical example in two spatial dimensions that illustrates the usefulness and accuracy of transparent boundary conditions.

Axisymmetric Scaled Boundary Finite Element Formulation for Wave Propagation in Unbounded Layered Media

Wave propagation in unbounded layered media with a new formulation of Axisymmetric Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method (AXI-SBFEM) is derived. Dividing the general three-dimensional unbounded domain into a number of independent two-dimensional ones, the problem could be solved by a significant reduction in required storage and computational time. The equations of the corresponding Axisymmetri...

Exact analytical approach for free longitudinal vibration of nanorods based on nonlocal elasticity theory from wave standpoint

In this paper, free longitudinal vibration of nanorods is investigated from the wave viewpoint. The Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory is used for nanorods modelling. Wave propagation in a medium has a similar formulation as vibrations and thus,  it can be used to describe the vibration behavior. Boundaries reflect the propagating waves after incident. Firstly, the governing quation of nanoro...

Simulation of static sinusoidal wave in deep water environment with complex boundary conditions using proposed SPH method

The study of wave and its propagation on the water surface is among significant phenomena in designing quay, marine and water structures. Therefore, in order to design structures which are exposed to direct wave forces, it is necessary to study and simulate water surface height and the wave forces on the structures body in different boundary conditions. In this study, the propagation of static ...

On Maxwell Equations with the Transparent Boundary Condition

Here D ⊂ R is a bounded domain with Lipschitz boundary ΓD, E is the electric field, H is the magnetic field, x̂ = x/|x|, and n is the unit outer normal to ΓD. The applied current J and the initial conditions E0,H0 are assumed to be supported in the circle BR = {x ∈ R : |x| < R} for some R > 0. The electric permittivity ε and magnetic permeability μ are assumed to be positive constants. We remark...

Absolute and convective instabilities of waves on unbounded and large bounded domains

Instabilities of nonlinear waves on unbounded domains manifest themselves in different ways. An absolute instability occurs if the amplitude of localized wave packets grows in time at each fixed point in the domain. In contrast, convective instabilities are characterized by the fact that even though the overall norm of wave packets grows in time, perturbations decay locally at each given point ...
