AbstractIn this paper, the numerical solution to the Helmholtz equation with impedance boundary condition, based on the Finite volume method, is discussed. We used the Robin boundary condition using exterior points. Properties of the weak solution to the Helmholtz equation and numerical solution are presented. Further the numerical experiments, comparing the numerical solution with the exact one, and the computation of the experimental order of convergence are presented.

The impedance boundary condition for the parabolic approximation is derived in the case of a sea bottom profile sloping at a constant angle, as a non-local boundary condition imposed exactly at the interface. This condition is integrated into the IFD code for the numerical computation of the pressure field and implemented to test its accuracy in some benchmark cases, for which the backscattered field is negligible. It is shown that by avoiding the sloping interface, the results obtained are closer to the benchmark results given by normal mode codes solving the full Helmholtz equation, such as the 2-way COUPLE code, than those of the standard IFD or other 1-way codes, at least for problems that do not have significant backscattering effects.

The paper presents local quasigeoid modelling in Slovakia using the finite volume method (FVM). FVM is used to solve numerically the fixed gravimetric boundary value problem (FGBVP) on a 3D unstructured mesh created above the real Earth's surface. Terrestrial gravimetric measurements as input data represent the oblique derivative boundary conditions on the Earth's topography. To handle such oblique derivative problem, its tangential components are considered as surface advection terms regularized by a surface diffusion. The FVM numerical solution is fixed to the GOCE-based satellite-only geopotential model on the upper boundary at the altitude of 230 km. The horizontal resolution of the 3D computational domain is 0.002 × 0.002 deg and its discretization in the radial direction is changing with altitude. The created unstructured 3D mesh of finite volumes consists of 454,577,577 unknowns. The FVM numerical solution of FGBVP on such a detailed mesh leads to large-scale parallel computations requiring 245 GB of internal memory. It results in the disturbing potential obtained in the whole 3D computational domain. Its values on the discretized Earth's surface are transformed into the local quasigeoid model that is tested at 404 GNSS/levelling benchmarks. The standard deviation of residuals is 2.8 cm and decreases to 2.6 cm after removing 9 identified outliers. It indicates high accuracy of the obtained FVM-based local quasigeoid model in Slovakia.

In this paper we present a robust, high order method for numerical solution of multidimensional compressible inviscid flow equations. Our scheme is based on Nodal Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Method (NDG-FEM). This method utilizes the favorable features of Finite Volume Method (FVM) and Finite Element Method (FEM). In this method, space discretization is carried out by finite element discontinuous approximations. The resulting semi discrete differential equations were solved using explicit Runge-Kutta (ERK) method. In order to compute fluxes at element interfaces, we have used Roe Approximate scheme. In this article, we demonstrate the use of exponential filter to remove Gibbs oscillations near the shock waves. Numerical predictions for two dimensional compressible fluid flows are presented here. The solution was obtained with overall order of accuracy of 3. The numerical results obtained are compared with experimental and finite volume method results.
