Time Domain Scattering

This paper presents a class of boundary integral equation methods for the numerical solution of acoustic and electromagnetic time-domain scattering problems in the presence of unbounded penetrable interfaces in two spatial dimensions. The proposed methodology relies on convolution quadrature (CQ) schemes and the recently introduced windowed Green function (WGF) method. As in standard time-domain scattering from bounded obstacles, a CQ method of the user's choice is used to transform the problem into a finite number of (complex) frequency-domain problems posed, in our case, on the domains containing unbounded penetrable interfaces. Each one of the frequency-domain transmission problems is then formulated as a second-kind integral equation that is effectively reduced to a bounded interface by means of the WGF method—which introduces errors that decrease super-algebraically fast as the window size increases. The resulting windowed integral equations can then be solved by means of any (accelerated or unaccelerated) off-the-shelf Nyström or boundary element Helmholtz integral equation solvers capable of handling complex wavenumbers with large imaginary part. A high-order Nyström method based on Alpert's quadrature rules is used here. A variety of CQ schemes and numerical examples, including wave propagation in open waveguides as well as scattering from multiple layered media, demonstrate the capabilities of the proposed approach.

Abstract In previous papers the authors proposed a new experimental identification technique applicable to elastic structures. The proposed technique is based on the principle of harmonic balance, and can be classified as the frequency domain technique. The technique requires the excitation force to be periodic. This is in some cases a restriction. So another technique free from this restriction is of use. In this paper, as a first step for developing such techniques, a technique applicable to beams is proposed. The proposed technique can be classified as the time domain one. Two variations of the technique are proposed, depending on what methods are used for estimating the parameters of the governing equations. The first method is based on the usual least square method. The second is based on solving a minimization problem with constraints. The latter usually yields better results. But in this method, an iteration procedure is used, which requires initial values for the parameters. To determine the initial values, the first method can be used. So both methods are useful. Finally the applicability of the proposed technique is confirmed by numerical simulation and experiments.

In this paper, we propose and study the uniaxial perfectly matched layer (PML) method for three-dimensional time-domain electromagnetic scattering problems, which has a great advantage over the spherical one in dealing with problems involving anisotropic scatterers. The truncated uniaxial PML problem is proved to be well-posed and stable, based on the Laplace transform technique and the energy method. Moreover, the $L^2$-norm and $L^{\infty}$-norm error estimates in time are given between the solutions of the original scattering problem and the truncated PML problem, leading to the exponential convergence of the time-domain uniaxial PML method in terms of the thickness and absorbing parameters of the PML layer. The proof depends on the error analysis between the EtM operators for the original scattering problem and the truncated PML problem, which is different from our previous work (SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 58(3) (2020), 1918-1940).
