Abstract

In this paper, we consider a source problem for a time harmonic acoustic wave in two-dimensional space. Based on the boundary integral equation method, a Dirichlet-to-Neumann map in terms of boundary integral operators on the boundary of the source is constructed to transform this problem into two boundary value problems for the Helmholtz equation.

Highlights

  • The realization of many physical phenomena mathematically leads to the resolution of the Helmholtz equation in a bounded or an unbounded domain with suitable conditions, for example, radiation or scattering of waves [1, 2] and swirling flow in the fluid mechanics [3].Using the boundary integral equation (BIE) approach, the above problems can be transformed into a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind or a system of the same kind

  • Unlike in the case of a homogeneous equation where only boundary integrals appear [4,5,6], using boundary integral equation methods in dealing with a source problem usually leads to some boundary integrals and a domain integral [7,8,9]

  • It is appropriate to draw some conclusive remarks for the proposed DtN method from our numerical experiments
