Abstract:

We study finite element methods for the wave equation in a rectangular domain with a second-order absorbing boundary condition imposed on the boundary. For this problem there seems to be no known finite element method, although many finite difference methods have been proposed. A third-order energy, however, will be introduced which will be utilized to reduce our original second-order problem to a first-order symmetric dissipative hyperbolic system. Then, for this first-order system a weak formulation will be given and continuous-time and discrete-time Galerkin procedures will be investigated. Error estimates will also be given.
