Constructing non-reflecting boundary conditions using summation-by-parts in time

In this paper we provide a new approach for constructing non-reflecting boundary conditions. The boundary conditions are based on summation-by-parts operators and derived without Laplace transformation in time. We prove that the new non-reflecting boundary conditions yield a well-posed problem and that the corresponding numerical approximation is unconditionally stable. The analysis is demonstrated on a hyperbolic system in two space dimensions, and the theoretical results are confirmed by numerical experiments.
