Dirichlet To Neumann Map

This work offers some contributions to the numerical study of acoustic waves propagating in the Sun and its atmosphere. The main goal is to provide boundary conditions for outgoing waves in the solar atmosphere where it is assumed that the sound speed is constant and the density decays exponentially with radius. Outgoing waves are governed by a Dirichlet-to-Neumann map which is obtained from the factorization of the Helmholtz equation expressed in spherical coordinates. For the purpose of extending the outgoing wave equation to axisymmetric or 3D cases, different approximations are implemented by using the frequency and/or the angle of incidence as parameters of interest. This results in boundary conditions called atmospheric radiation boundary conditions (ARBC) which are tested in ideal and realistic configurations. These ARBCs deliver accurate results and reduce the computational burden by a factor of two in helioseismology applications.

AbstractLocal approximate radiation boundary conditions of optimal efficiency for the convective wave equation and the linearized Euler equations in waveguide geometry are formulated, analyzed, and tested. The results extend and improve for the convective case the general formulation of high-order local radiation boundary condition sequences for anisotropic scalar equations developed in [4].

We describe the construction, analysis, and implementation of arbitrary-order local radiation boundary condition sequences for Maxwell’s equations. In particular we use the complete radiation boundary conditions which implicitly apply uniformly accurate exponentially convergent rational approximants to the exact radiation boundary conditions. Numerical experiments for waveguide and free space problems using high- order discontinuous Galerkin spatial discretizations are presented.

One of the most popular radiation boundary conditions for the Helmholtz equation in exterior 3-D regions has been the sequence of operators developed by Bayliss et al.1 for computational domains with spherical exterior boundaries. The present paper extends those spherical operators to triaxial ellipsoidal boundaries by utilizing two mathematical constructs originally developed for ellipsoidal acoustic infinite elements.2 The two constructs are: (i) a radial/angular coordinate system for ellipsoidal geometry, and (ii) a convergent ellipsoidal radial expansion for exterior fields, analogous to the classical spherical multipole expansion. The ellipsoidal radial and angular coordinates are smooth generalizations of the traditional radial and angular coordinates used in spherical, prolate spheroidal and oblate spheroidal systems. As a result, all four coordinate systems and their corresponding radiation boundary conditions are included within this single ellipsoidal system, varying smoothly from one to the other. The geometric flexibility of this system enables the exterior boundary of the computational domain to closely circumscribe objects with a wide range of aspect ratios, thereby reducing the size and cost of 3-D computational models.

Homogeneous Media

Optimized local radiation boundary conditions to truncate the computational domain by a rectangular boundary have been constructed for acoustic waves propagating into a homogeneous, isotropic far field. Here we try to achieve comparable efficiencies in stratified media and cylindrical coordinates. We find that conditions constructed for homogeneous media are highly effective in the stratified case. On the circle we derive boundary conditions by optimizing a semidiscretized perfectly matched layer. Though we are unsuccessful in matching the accuracies of the Cartesian case, our experiments show that older sequences based on the progressive wave expansion are surprisingly efficient.
