Stability and convergence analysis of high-order numerical schemes with DtN-type absorbing boundary conditions for nonlocal wave equations
share
The stability and convergence analysis of high-order numerical approximations for the one- and two-dimensional nonlocal wave equations on unbounded spatial domains are considered. We first use the quadrature-based finite difference schemes to discretize the spatially nonlocal operator, and apply the explicit difference scheme to approximate the temporal derivative to achieve a fully discrete infinity system. After that, we construct the Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN)-type absorbing boundary conditions (ABCs) to reduce the infinite discrete system into a finite discrete system. To do so, we first adopt the idea in [Du, Zhang and Zheng, Commun. Comput. Phys., 24(4):1049–1072, 2018 and Du, Han, Zhang and Zheng, SIAM J. Sci. Comp., 40(3):A1430–A1445, 2018] to derive the Dirichlet-to-Dirichlet (DtD)-type mappings for one- and two-dimensional cases, respectively. We then use the discrete nonlocal Green's first identity to achieve the discrete DtN-type mappings from the DtD-type mappings. The resulting DtN-type mappings make it possible to perform the stability and convergence analysis of the reduced problem. Numerical experiments are provided to demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed approach.
