An effective iterative approach is proposed to localize the global DtN boundary condition, which facilitates the implementation of multi-domain methods, and the treat- ment for complex geometry of the scatterers.

文摘This paper is concerned with a multi-domain spectral method, based on an interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin （IPDG） formulation, for the exterior Helmholtz problem truncated via an exact circular or spherical Dirichlet-to-Neumann （DtN） boundary con- dition. An effective iterative approach is proposed to localize the global DtN boundary condition, which facilitates the implementation of multi-domain methods, and the treat- ment for complex geometry of the scatterers. Under a discontinuous Galerkin formulation, the proposed method allows to use polynomial basis functions of different degree on dif- ferent subdomains, and more importantly, explicit wave number dependence estimates of the spectral scheme can be derived, which is somehow implausible for a multi-domain continuous Galerkin formulation.
