Title: IUTAM Symposium on Computational Methods for Unbounded Domains
Description: This volume constitutes the Proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium held in Boulder, Colorado, on 27-31 July, 1997. Invited researchers in acoustics, aeronautics, elastodynamics, electromagnetics, hydrodynamics and mathematics discussed non-reflecting computational boundaries. Thirty-three papers were presented. About two-thirds of these focused on the classical wave equation of acoustics; however, three papers dealt with hydrodynamic surface waves, two with electromagnetic waves, three with elastodynamic waves, and four with waves in aerodynamics. Approximately two-thirds of the papers addressed steady-state problems, with the rest treating problems in the time domain. A unique aspect of the symposium involved the formulation by the participants of benchmark problems for evaluating computational boundaries, as described in the first article. The volume should be of interest to analysts working on wave problems in unbounded domains.
