Bayliss-Turkel-like radiation conditions on surfaces of arbitrary shape (Q1276335)

The authors apply the pseudo-differential calculus to extend the Bayliss-Turkel second-order radiation condition to an arbitrary shaped surface. To this end, they use the Nirenberg factorization theorem which allows to calculate recursively symbols of pseudo-differential operators entering into an asymptotic expansion for the basic boundary pseudo-differential operator. As a by-product, known radiation conditions of order less that or equal to 2 are recovered, and their accuracy is discussed.
