Abstract
investigated in this work for wave problems in elastic solids. The DtN method defines
an exact relation between the displacement field and its normal and tangential
series. The DtN boundary conditions are shown to be non-reflective, thus uniqueness
of the solution is guaranteed. For practical purposes the full DtN operator is truncated.
The truncated DtN operator fails to completely inhibit reflections of higher modes,
retain uniqueness of the solution at any given wave number are derived. The validity
boundary conditions are also investigated, and it is shown that local boundary
conditions guarantee uniqueness of the solution for all wave numbers, regardless of
the number of terms in the operator. This property is used here to modify the truncated
modified DtN operator, combining the truncated operator with the local one, is
