✦ Synopsis
We describe a new, efficient approach to the imposition of exact nonreflecting boundary conditions for the scalar wave equation. We compare the performance of our approach with that of existing methods by coupling the boundary conditions to finite-difference schemes. Numerical experiments demonstrate a significant gain in accuracy at no additional cost.

Exact nonreflecting boundary conditions are derived for the time dependent Maxwell equations in three space dimensions. These conditions hold on a spherical surface B, outside of which the medium is assumed to be homogeneous, isotropic, and source-free. They are local in time and nonlocal on B, and
Asymptotic and exact local radiation boundary conditions (RBC) for the scalar time-dependent wave equation, ÿrst derived by Hagstrom and Hariharan, are reformulated as an auxiliary Cauchy problem for each radial harmonic on a spherical boundary. The reformulation is based on the hierarchy of local b
## Abstract This paper develops a finite element scheme to generate the spatial‐ and time‐dependent absorbing boundary conditions for unbounded elastic‐wave problems. This scheme first calculates the spatial‐ and time‐dependent wave speed over the cosine of the direction angle using the Higdon's on
