Complete radiation boundary conditions for the Helmholtz equation. II: Domains with corners (Q6044434): Difference between revisions

This is a continuation of the authors' Part I [Numer. Math. 141, No. 4, 917--966 (2019; Zbl 1412.65187)] on the investigation of the complete radiation boundary condition (CRBC) for the Helmholtz equations in waveguides. Here the authors propose corner compatibility conditions for CRBC applied to the Helmholtz equation in \(\mathbb{R}^2\). Since CRBC is developed as a high-order absorbing boundary condition approximating the radiation condition by using rational functions via the cross-sectional Fourier analysis, it is well-studied and its accurate performance is validated on a straight/planar fictitious boundary in waveguides. However in the presence of corners on artificial absorbing boundaries such as boundaries of rectangular domains, a special treatment for corner conditions is required. The authors design and validate accurate CRBC with the corner compatibility conditions on rectangular domains, and analyze the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Helmholtz equation coupled with CRBC with the corner compatibility conditions. They provide numerical examples illustrating the performance of CRBC for time-harmonic wave propagation problems in \(\mathbb{R}^2\). They also note that CRBC requires somewhat elaborate variational problem in finite element implementations, and it may need more efforts for extension to the scattering problem in \(\mathbb{R}^3\).
