| Abstract: | In the numerical computation of hyperbolic equations it is not practical to use infinite domains. Instead, one truncates the domain with an artificial boundary. In this study we construct a sequence of radiating boundary conditions for wave-like equations. We prove that as the artificial boundary is moved to infinity the solution approaches the solution of the infinite domain as O(r?m?1/2) for the m-th boundary condition. Numerical experiments with problems in jet acoustics verify the practical nature and utility of the boundary conditions. |
