    Notes: On the basis of the dispersion relation of the generalized linear wave equation we derive a radiation boundary condition (RBC) that explicitly incorporates the physical parameters of the governing equation into the form of the boundary condition. Using finite element techniques we investigate the properties of the generalized RBC by examining forced and unforced solutions to the telegraph and Klein-Gordon equations in one dimension. The results show that within the limits of the physical parameters of the problem the generalized RBC is an improvement over the Sommerfeld RBC when the governing equation contains additional terms that influence the propagation. These gains are achieved without introducing any computational overhead. A two-dimensional example suggests that the 1D findings can generalize to higher dimensions.

    Notes: A second-order radiation boundary condition (RBC) is derived for 2D shallow water problems posed in ‘wave equation’ form and is implemented within the Galerkin finite element framework. The RBC is derived by matching the dispersion relation for the interior wave equation with an approximate solution to the exterior problem for outgoing waves. The matching is correct to second order, accounting for curvature of the wave front and the geometry. Implementation is achieved by using the RBC as an evolution equation for the normal gradient on the boundary, coupled through the natural boundary integral of the Galerkin interior problem. The formulation is easily implemented on non-straight, unstructured meshes of simple elements. Test cases show fidelity to solutions obtained on extended meshes and improvement relative to simpler first-order RBCs.
