✦ Synopsis

We use a one-dimensional model problem of advection-diffusion to investigate the treatment recently advocated by Papanastasiou and colleagues to deal with boundary conditions at artificial outflow boundaries.

Using finite elements of degree p, we show that their treatment is equivalent to imposing the condition that the (p 1)st derivative of the dependent variable should vanish at a point close to the outflow. This is then shown to lead to errors of order o((h1/Pe) p1 ) in the numerical solutions (where h is the maximum element size and Pe is the global Peclet number), which is superior to the errors of order o(h p 1 1=Pe) obtained using a standard no-flux outflow condition. These findings are verified by numerical experiments.

In recent work on outflow boundary conditions for Navier-Stokes equations by Papanastasiou et al. (Int. j. numer. methods fluids, 14, 587-608 (1992)) a choice has been proposed which can formally be described as imposing no boundary condition at all. This of course leads to an underdetermined proble

## In this work, we present a new absorbing boundary condi-( ) tion for the finite-difference time-domain FDTD method. This boundary condition is based on the use of chiral absorbers, which are well suited for this application. Further, we present se¨eral numerical examples to illustrate the effica
