Some Formulations Coupling Nite Element and Integral Equation Methods for Helmholtz Equation and Electromagnetism

چکیده
In this paper a study of the coupling between integral equations and nite element methods is presented for two problems of propagation in frequency domain. It is shown that these problems can be viewed as multidomain problems and treated by the mean of the Schur complement technique. The complement coming from the integral equation part is expressed with the integral operators of the scattering theory. This allows to predict the behaviour of the Schur method, either primal or dual, as far as its convergence speed is concerned. Furthermore, the diierence of behaviour between electromagnetism and acoustics from this point of view is explained.

A Least Squares Method for the Helmholtz Equation
We investigate the use of least squares methods to approximate the Helmholtz equation. The basis used in the discrete method consists of solutions of the Helmholtz equation (either consisting of plane waves or Bessel functions) on each element of a nite element grid. Unlike previous methods of this type, we do not use polynomial based nite elements. The use of small elements (and relatively few...
متن کاملCubic spline Numerov type approach for solution of Helmholtz equation
We have developed a three level implicit method for solution of the Helmholtz equation. Using the cubic spline in space and finite difference in time directions. The approach has been modied to drive Numerov type nite difference method. The method yield the tri-diagonal linear system of algebraic equations which can be solved by using a tri-diagonal solver. Stability and error estimation of the...
متن کاملAccurate computation of Galerkin double surface integrals in the 3-D boundary element method
Many boundary element integral equation kernels are based on the Green’s functions of the Laplace and Helmholtz equations in three dimensions. These include, for example, the Laplace, Helmholtz, elasticity, Stokes, and Maxwell’s equations. Integral equation formulations lead to more compact, but dense linear systems. These dense systems are often solved iteratively via Krylov subspace methods, ...
متن کاملStabilized boundary element methods for exterior Helmholtz problems
In this paper we describe and analyze some modified boundary element methods to solve exterior boundary value problems for the Helmholtz equation with either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. The proposed approach avoids spurious modes even in the case of Lipschitz boundaries. Moreover, the regularisation is done based on boundary integral operators which are already available in standa...
متن کاملApplication of Decoupled Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method to Solve Eigenvalue Helmholtz Problems (Research Note)
A novel element with arbitrary domain shape by using decoupled scaled boundary finite element (DSBFEM) is proposed for eigenvalue analysis of 2D vibrating rods with different boundary conditions. Within the proposed element scheme, the mode shapes of vibrating rods with variable boundary conditions are modelled and results are plotted. All possible conditions for the rods ends are incorporated ...
