10 Model Acoustic Problem Given a bounded domain Ω R N, N = 2, 3, find u such that u + κ 2 n 2 u = 0 in Ω u iκu n = g on Γ := Ω. Assume the wave number κ is real. Important parameter: the wavelength (of a plane wave solution) is 2π/(κn), so large κ corresponds to short wavelength.

11 Standard Finite Elements Weak form: find u h S h H 1 (Ω) such that u h ξ κ 2 n 2 u h ξ dv iκ u h ξ da = Ω for all ξ S h. This gives rise to a matrix problem (S κ 2 M iκb) u = g Γ Ω gξ da The matrix is complex symmetric (not Hermitian) with eigenvalues having positive and negative real parts if k is large so The linear system is hard to solve efficiently. and the matrix has to be large...

12 High frequency: many DoF The discretization must become finer at high wave number κ Suppose n is constant. Melenk and Sauter 1 show, under several non-restrictive assumptions, that for a conforming hp finite element approximation of our model boundary value problem, a quasi-optimal error estimate holds with constant independent of κ if h p = δ and p = 1 + C ln(κ) nκ 1 Vienna University: ASC Report No. 31/2009, Wave-Number Explicit Convergence Analysis for Galerkin Discretizations of the Helmholtz Equation, J.M.

14 Other methods We will now look at a DG method using non-standard shape functions called the Ultra Weak Variational Formulation 2 (UWVF) For an h version analysis of plane wave DG methods in general (but not UWVF) see [ 3 ] below. For other methods using special basis functions see for example Trefftz methods, PUFEM 4, Discontinuous Enrichment 5, Integral equations 6,... 2 O. Cessenat and B.

15 Time harmonic symmetric hyperbolic system 7 Given a domain Ω R N, N = 2, 3, and temporal frequency ω, we seek u = u(x) C m (so U(x, t) = R(u(x) exp( iωt))) such that N iωau + A j u xj + Bu = 0 in Ω j=1 where all the matrices are real symmetric. Also A(x) is positive definite, B(x) positive semidefinite and we assume that the A j are constant. Boundary condition: (D N)u = g on Γ := Ω where D = N j=1 A jn j and n is the unit outward normal to Ω. N is chosen to enforce the desired boundary condition. 7 G.Gabard. Discontinuous Galerkin methods with plane waves for time-harmonic problems. J. Comput. Phys., 225(2): , 2007.

16 Example: Helmholtz s equation in R 2 We seek to approximate the function p that satisfies p + (ω/c) 2 n(x)p = 0 in Ω and ( ) c p c iω n + σp = Q p iω n σp + g on Γ Introduce v such that i(ω/c)v = p. Define k = ω/c. Then if u = (p, v 1, v 2 ) T, we see that u satisfies the hyperbolic system with B = 0 and A 1 = A = n(x)/c /c /c, A 2 =, ,

17 Boundary conditions for the 2D example The boundary condition matrix D = n 1 A 1 + n 2 A 2 0 n 1 n 2 D = n 1 0 0, n Let L ± = 1 2σ (±σ, n 1, n 2 ). Note that L ± u = (±σp n 1 v 1 n 2 v 2 )/ 2σ corresponds to an impedance boundary condition. We set D + = (L + ) T L + and D = (L ) T L so that D = D + + D On the boundary Γ we can choose N = D 2(D + QL (L + ) T ), Q 1.

18 The Mesh Approximate the domain Ω by a tetrahedral finite element mesh consisting of N h tetrahedra K m, m = 1,, N h of maximum diameter h. N iωau + A j u xj + Bu = 0 j=1 in Ω

19 Derivation of the UWVF Let K denote an element in the mesh with faces f K and outward normal n K. Let u K = u K. Multiply the equation by a smooth function φ K on K and integrate by parts: iω + K f K Au K φ K dv f K N j=1 D K u K φ K da = 0 ( A j u φ K x j + Bu φ K ) dv Here the overbar represents complex conjugation, and we use D K to denote D on K.

20 Derivation continued Splitting the flux D K = D K,+ + D K, and using the boundary condition and symmetry of the matrices we get N u K iωaφ K A j φ K x j + Bφ K dv K + K f K K Γ K j=1 ( (D K,+ u K ) φ K da + f ((D K + N)u K + g) φ K da = 0. f ) (D K, u K ) φ K da

21 Non standard basis Given Y K X K (L 2 ( K )) m we choose φ K to be a solution of the adjoint equation with impedance boundary condition iωaφ K N A j φ K x j + Bφ K = 0 on K j=1 We obtain (D K,+ u K ) φ K da + (D K, u K ) φ K da K K K Γ f K K ((D K + N)u K + g) φ K da = 0. f

22 We can write D K,± = ±L K,± (L K,± ) T and N = D K 2(D K, + QL K, (L K,+ ) T ). Using also L K, = L K,+ we get: (L K,+ ) T u K (L K,+ ) T φ K da K + ((L K,+ ) T u K ) (L K, ) T φ K da K f K K f Q((L K,+ ) T u K + g) (L K, ) T φ K da = 0. Γ K Set Y K = (L K,+ ) T φ K. Define the unknown impedance flux and operator F K : X K X K by X K = (L K,+ ) T u K and F K (Y K ) = (L K, ) T φ K.

23 The UWVF Summarizing, we see that X K X K (L 2 ( K )) m satisfies X K Y K da + X K F K (Y K ) da K K f K K f Q(X K + g) F K (Y K ) da = 0. K Γ for all Y K X K (L 2 ( K )) m and all tetraheda K in the mesh. This is the UWVF of Cessenat and Després before discretization Note that for the acoustic case m = 1, X K = L 2 ( K ), and for electromagnetism m = 3, while X K = L 2 t ( K ). Cessenat and Després prove existence of a unique solution for acoustics and electromagnetism.

24 Useful result Lemma (Isometry Lemma) For all Y K X K, F K (Y K ) L 2 ( K ) YK L 2 ( K ) with equality if B = 0. To see this: let Y K = (L K,+ ) T φ K. Then using the adjoint equation and integration by parts D K φ K φ K da = 2 φ K Bφ K dv. K Splitting D K = D K,+ + D K, and using the definition of F K completes the demonstration. K

25 The discrete UWVF Let Vp K denote a finite dimensional space of p := p(k ) solutions of the adjoint problem on an element K. Let { } Xp K = v X K : v = (L K,+ ) T φ K for some φ K Vp K The discrete problem is to seek X K h X K p such that K X K h YK da + K Γ K f K K f X K h Q(X K h + g) F K (Y K ) da = 0 for all Y K X K p and all elements K. F K (Y K ) da

26 Model Acoustic Problem Given a bounded domain Ω R N, N = 2, 3, find u such that Assume κ is real. u + κ 2 n 2 u = 0 in Ω u iκu n = g on Γ := Ω.

27 2D acoustic plane wave basis Let n K = n K assumed piecewise constant. Using p directions d K m = (cos(θ m ), sin(θ m )) T, θ m = 2πm/p we set { } = span exp(ikn K x d K m), 1 m p V K p A function Y K X K p can then be written Y K = 1 ( ) 1 p + I ym K exp(ikn K x d K 2 ik ν m). K m=1 Then F K (Y K ) is easy to compute since F K (Y K ) = 1 ( ) 1 p I ym K exp(ikn K x d K 2σ ik ν m). K m=1 X K h is expanded in the same way as YK.

28 Some comments on plane wave bases On straight tets/triangles, the UWVF integrals can be computed in a closed form, therefore assembly is rapid and we avoid the need for complicated quadratures (c.f. PUFEM). Ill-conditioning may occur when elements are small or at low frequencies since exp(ikx d) = 1 + ikx d +... Fourier-Bessel functions offer an attractive alternative.

39 Required continuity between elements Let E k = E Ωk and E j = E Ωj (similarly for H) then if E, H is to be a solution of the Maxwell s equations we need E k n K k = E j n K j and H k n K k = H j n K j on Σ j,k In the Ultra Weak Variational Formulation (UWVF) this is achieved by demanding that impedance data agree on the interfaces, so on Σ j,k E k n K k + η(h k n K k ) n K k = E j n K j + η(h j n K j ) n K j E k n K k η(h k n K k ) n K k = E j n K j η(h j n K j ) n K j where η > 0 is a parameter (function) on Σ j,k (e.g. η = R( µ r /ɛ r )).

41 The Discrete UWVF: plane waves For each element Ω k we choose p k directions d j, j = 1,..., p k on the unit sphere [Sloan et al.] and for each direction two polarizations q (1,2) j then define (choosing κ = ɛ r µ r ) X h k = 2 p k s=1 j=1 ( x j,s q s j n K k ηκ ) (d j q s j kµ ) T r exp(iκd j x) The test function is, for 1 r p k, 1 t 2 ( Yk h = q t r nk k ηκ ) (d r q t r kµ ) T exp(iκd r x) r Ωk In this case F k (Yk h ) is easy to compute: ( F k (Yk h ) = q t r nk k ηκ ) (d r q t r kµ ) T exp(iκd r x) r Ωk Ωk

45 Elastic UWVF: Navier s equation The elasticity problem: Navier s equation with boundary conditions µ u + (λ + µ) ( u) + ω 2 ρu = 0 T (n) (u) iσu = Q( T (n) (u) iσu) + g in Ω on Γ where the traction operator T (n) (u) is defined by T (n) (u) = 2µ u + λn u + µn u. n where n is an outward unit normal, g is the source term, ω is the angular frequency of the field, u is the time-harmonic displacement vector, λ and µ are the Lamé constants and ρ is the density of the medium.

46 The Elastic UWVF 14 [T. Luostari] We can derive the following UWVF of finding X k such that k k σ 1 X k ( T (n k ) (e k ) iσe k ) Ω k k Γ k Qσ 1 X k (T (n k ) (e k ) iσe k ) = k j k,j σ 1 X j (T (n k ) (e k ) iσe k ) Γ k σ 1 g (T (n k ) (e k ) iσe k ) (1) for all plane wave (S- or P-wave) test functions e k. Here X k = T (n k ) (u k ) iσu k on Ω k. So far, in 3D numerical simulations we use an ad hoc choice for coupling parameter (flux parameter) where I is the unit matrix. σ = ωρr{c P }I (2) 14 2D: T.
