Abstract: Numerical computation of wave propagation in a large
domain usually requires significant computational effort. Hence, the
considered domain must be truncated to a smaller domain of interest.
In addition, special boundary conditions, which absorb the outward
travelling waves, need to be implemented in order to describe the
system domains correctly. In this work, the linear one dimensional
wave equation is approximated by utilizing the Fourier Galerkin
approach. Furthermore, the artificial boundaries are realized with
absorbing boundary conditions. Within this work, a systematic work
flow for setting up the wave problem, including the absorbing
boundary conditions, is proposed. As a result, a convenient modal
system description with an effective absorbing boundary formulation
is established. Moreover, the truncated model shows high accuracy
compared to the global domain.
Abstract: The generalized wave equation models various
problems in sciences and engineering. In this paper, a new three-time
level implicit approach based on cubic trigonometric B-spline for the
approximate solution of wave equation is developed. The usual finite
difference approach is used to discretize the time derivative while
cubic trigonometric B-spline is applied as an interpolating function in
the space dimension. Von Neumann stability analysis is used to
analyze the proposed method. Two problems are discussed to exhibit
the feasibility and capability of the method. The absolute errors and
maximum error are computed to assess the performance of the
proposed method. The results were found to be in good agreement
with known solutions and with existing schemes in literature.
Abstract: This paper deals with the formulation of Maxwell-s equations in a cavity resonator in the presence of the gravitational field produced by a blackhole. The metric of space-time due to the blackhole is the Schwarzchild metric. Conventionally, this is expressed in spherical polar coordinates. In order to adapt this metric to our problem, we have considered this metric in a small region close to the blackhole and expressed this metric in a cartesian system locally.
