Imposing boundary conditions in the meshless local Petrov–Galerkin method
A particular meshless method, named meshless local Petrov–Galerkin is investigated. To treat the essential boundary condition problem, an alternative approach is proposed. The basic idea is to merge the best features of two different methods of shape function generation: the moving least squares (MLS) and the radial basis functions with polynomial terms (RBFp). Whereas the MLS has lower computa...
متن کاملExact Boundary Conditions for Periodic Waveguides Containing a Local Perturbation
We consider the solution of the Helmholtz equation−∆u(x)−n(x)ωu(x) = f(x), x = (x, y), in a domain Ω which is infinite in x and bounded in y. We assume that f(x) is supported in Ω := {x ∈ Ω |a− < x < a} and that n(x) is x-periodic in Ω\Ω. We show how to obtain exact boundary conditions on the vertical segments, Γ− := {x ∈ Ω |x = a−} and Γ := {x ∈ Ω |x = a}, that will enable us to find the solut...
متن کاملLocal Absorbing Boundary Conditions for a Finite Element Discretization of the Cubic Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation
We consider in this work the initial value problem for the one dimensional cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. In order to integrate it numerically, one option frequently used, is to impose local absorbing boundary conditions. A finite element discretization in space of the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation is considered along with the absorbing boundary conditions obtained for an analogou...
متن کاملClassical and enriched finite element formulations for Bloch-periodic boundary conditions
In this paper, classical and enriched finite element formulations to impose Bloch-periodic boundary conditions are proposed. Bloch-periodic boundary conditions arise in the description of wave-like phenomena in periodic media. We consider the quantum-mechanical problem in a crystalline solid, and derive the weak formulation and matrix equations for the Schrödinger and Poisson equations in a par...
متن کاملOn the issue of imposing boundary conditions on quantum fields
An interesting example of the deep interrelation between Physics and Mathematics is obtained when trying to impose mathematical boundary conditions on physical quantum fields. This procedure has recently been re-examined with care. Comments on that and previous analysis are here provided, together with considerations on the results of the purely mathematical zeta-function method, in an attempt ...
