Introduction
●
Need of Artificial Boundary Conditions
●
Infinite/semi-infinite spatial domains.
●
One-way ABCs: allow outward going
waves to travel across the ABC without
bouncing back into the spatial domain.
●
Two-way ABCs: same as one-way ABCs
plus the capability of imposing ingoing
waves.

●
Conclusions
●
A new two-way artificial boundary
condition (2wABC) for wave
propagation was formulated for the
mixed wave equation.
●
The new 2wABC was tested analytically
under three conditions: one-way,
Dirichlet & two-way.
●
The new 2wABC is thought to be simple
to implement. 12

●
Conclusions
●
The new 2wABC does not require any
non-linear or iterative solver.
●
Next step: implement it into our HPC
distributed memory FEM code to see it
working computationally.
