Stability of boundary element methods for the two dimensional wave equation in time domain revisited. (English) Zbl 1464.65104

Summary: This study considers the stability of time domain BEMs for the wave equation in 2D. We show that the question of stability of time domain BEMs is reduced to a nonlinear eigenvalue problem related to frequency domain integral equations. We propose to solve this non-linear eigenvalue problem numerically with the Sakurai-Sugiura method. After validating this approach numerically in the exterior Dirichlet problem, we proceed to transmission problems in which we find that some time domain counterparts of “resonance-free” integral equations in frequency domain lead to instability. We finally show that the proposed stability analysis helps to reformulate these equations to obtain stable numerical schemes.
