Abstract
We demonstrate the stable boundary closure of difference methods of order up through 16 for the solution of wave equations in second order form. Our method combines the introduction of 1–2 judiciously placed subcell grid points near the boundary with minimal-stencil, one-sided difference operators of the same order as the interior scheme. The method is tested on a variety of problems including the scalar wave equation discretized on mapped grids and overlapping composite grids, as well as an integrable nonlinear system.
