Abstract

In Grote and Sim (Efficient PML for the wave equation. Preprint, arXiv:1001.0319 [math:NA], 2010; in: Proceedings of the ninth international conference on numerical aspects of wave propagation (WAVES 2009, held in Pau, France, 2009), pp 370–371), a PML formulation was proposed for the wave equation in its standard second-order form. Here, energy decay and \(L^2\) stability bounds in two and three space dimensions are rigorously proved both for continuous and discrete formulations with constant damping coefficients. Numerical results validate the theory.
