Construction and Numerical Assessment of Local Absorbing Boundary Conditions for Heterogeneous Time-Harmonic Acoustic Problems
Résumé
This article is devoted to the derivation and assessment of local Absorbing Boundary Conditions (ABCs) for numerically solving heterogeneous time-harmonic acoustic problems. To this end, we develop a strategy inspired by the work of Engquist and Majda to build local approximations of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator for heterogeneous media, which is still an open problem. We focus on three simplified but characteristic examples of increasing complexity to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the proposed ABCs: the propagation in a duct with a longitudinal variation of the speed of sound, the propagation in a non-uniform mean flow using a convected wave operator, and the propagation in a duct with a transverse variation of the speed of sound and density. For each case, we follow the same systematic approach to construct a family of local ABCs and explain their implementation in a high-order finite element context. Numerical simulations allow to validate the accuracy of the ABCs, and to give recommendations for the tuning of their parameters.
