Abstract:
This paper deals with the convergence analysis of
the fictitious domain method used for taking into account the Neumann
boundary condition on the surface of a crack (or more generally an
object) in the context of acoustic and elastic wave propagation.
For both types of waves we consider the first order in time formulation
of the problem known as mixed velocity-pressure formulation for
acoustics and velocity-stress formulation for elastodynamics. The
convergence analysis for the discrete problem depends on the mixed finite
elements used. We consider here two families of mixed finite elements
that are compatible with mass lumping. When using the first one which is less
expensive and corresponds to the choice made in a previous paper, it
is shown that the fictitious domain method does not always
converge. For the second one a theoretical convergence analysis is
presented in the acoustic case and numerical convergence is shown
both for acoustic and elastic waves.
