Non-standard boundary conditions for the linearized Korteweg-de Vries equation

Abstract

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>This paper aims to solve numerically the linearized Korteweg-de Vries equation. We begin by deriving suitable boundary conditions then approximate them using finite difference method. The methodology of derivation, used in this paper, yields to Non-Standard Boundary Conditions (NSBC) that perfectly absorb wave reflections at the boundary. In addition, these NSBC are exact and local in time and space for non necessarily supported initial data and source terms. We finish with numerical examples that show the absorbing quality of these boundary conditions. Further comparisons are made using standard boundary conditions like, Dirichlet, Neumann and a variant of absorbing boundary conditions called discrete artificial ones.
