This volume reviews and discusses the main numerical methods used today for solving problems in infinite domains. It also presents in detail one very effective method in this class, namely the Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) finite element method. The book is intended to provide the researcher or engineer with the state-of-the-art in numerical solution methods for infinite domain problems, such as the problems encountered in acoustics and structural acoustics, fluid dynamics, meteorology, and many other fields of application. The emphasis is on the fundamentals of the various methods, and on reporting recent progress and forecasting future directions. An appendix at the end of the book provides an introduction to the essentials of the finite element method, and suggests a short list of texts on the subject which are categorized by their level of mathematics.

Since the middle of the last century, computing power has increased sufficiently that the direct numerical approximation of Maxwell's equations is now an increasingly important tool in science and engineering. Parallel to the increasing use of numerical methods in computational electromagnetism there has also been considerable progress in the mathematical understanding of the properties of Maxwell's equations relevant to numerical analysis. The aim of this book is to provide an up to date and sound theoretical foundation for finite element methods in computational electromagnetism. The emphasis is on finite element methods for scattering problems that involve the solution of Maxwell's equations on infinite domains. Suitable variational formulations are developed and justified mathematically. An error analysis of edge finite element methods that are particularly well suited to Maxwell's equations is the main focus of the book. The methods are justified for Lipschitz polyhedral domains that can cause strong singularities in the solution. The book finishes with a short introduction to inverse problems in electromagnetism.

A balanced guide to the essential techniques for solving elliptic partial differential equations Numerical Analysis of Partial Differential Equations provides a comprehensive, self-contained treatment of the quantitative methods used to solve elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs), with a focus on the efficiency as well as the error of the presented methods. The author utilizes coverage of theoretical PDEs, along with the nu merical solution of linear systems and various examples and exercises, to supply readers with an introduction to the essential concepts in the numerical analysis of PDEs. The book presents the three main discretization methods of elliptic PDEs: finite difference, finite elements, and spectral methods. Each topic has its own devoted chapters and is discussed alongside additional key topics, including: The mathematical theory of elliptic PDEs Numerical linear algebra Time-dependent PDEs Multigrid and domain decomposition PDEs posed on infinite domains The book concludes with a discussion of the methods for nonlinear problems, such as Newton's method, and addresses the importance of hands-on work to facilitate learning. Each chapter concludes with a set of exercises, including theoretical and programming problems, that allows readers to test their understanding of the presented theories and techniques. In addition, the book discusses important nonlinear problems in many fields of science and engineering, providing information as to how they can serve as computing projects across various disciplines. Requiring only a preliminary understanding of analysis, Numerical Analysis of Partial Differential Equations is suitable for courses on numerical PDEs at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels. The book is also appropriate for students majoring in the mathematical sciences and engineering.

The engineering problems in Geomechanics and Geotechnical fields are commonly treated through the infinite or semi-infinite media. The best approach to solve these problems numerically is by coupling a finite element or a finite difference with boundary element numerical methods. Coupling the bounded domain modelled by Flac3D, a well-known program that implements an explicit finite difference method, with the boundary element method, which satisfies exactly the governing Partial Differential Equations (PDE) in the surrounding infinite or semi-infinite medium, combines the capabilities and the advantages of both methods. The Domain Decomposition Method (DDM) partitions the task of solving the PDE into separate computations over the coupled sub-domains. This method allows the FDM (Flac3D program) and the Boundary Element Method (BEM) program to work independently and interactively. In contrast, at the level of discretized equations, the coupling method requires building a complicated unified system of equations. Therefore, a Domain Decomposition Sequential Dirichlet-Neumann Iterative Coupling Method is developed in this thesis to couple both programs. The method is applied in four cases, 2D and 3D infinite and semi-infinite domains, using the appropriate fundamental solutions in the Boundary Integral Equation required for each case. After applying this method, the mechanical responses computed by Flac3D is corrected and the same responses far from the bounded domain are computed with less computer runtime (CPU) compared with the uncoupled Flac3D solution. The method is also verified by comparing the obtained numerical results with the corresponding analytical solutions. Two BEM pre and post processing intrinsic plug-ins are created, which provide access to the data of Flac3D, as well as the internal structure of the programming language embedded within Flac3D program. These intrinsics are 10 to 100 times faster to execute than the functions created using the Flac3D embedded language. Furthermore, the complementary part of the Kernels is derived based on Mindlin's fundamental solutions. These Kernels are required to compute the stress inside the 3D semi-infinite domain.

This contributed volume honors the 80th birthday of Frank Stenger who established new Sinc methods in numerical analysis.The contributions, written independently from each other, show the new developments in numerical analysis in connection with Sinc methods and approximations of solutions for differential equations, boundary value problems, integral equations, integrals, linear transforms, eigenvalue problems, polynomial approximations, computations on polyhedra, and many applications. The approximation methods are exponentially converging compared with standard methods and save resources in computation. They are applicable in many fields of science including mathematics, physics, and engineering.The ideas discussed serve as a starting point in many different directions in numerical analysis research and applications which will lead to new and unprecedented results. This book will appeal to a wide readership, from students to specialized experts.
