Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Our focus in this paper is on the fundamental system of partial differential equation with boundary conditions (the continuous problem) that all types of numerical methods must respect. First, a constant coefficient hyperbolic system of equations which turns into a variable coefficient system of equations by transforming to a non-cartesian domain is considered. We discuss possible formulations of time-dependent boundary conditions leading to well-posed or strongly well-posed problems. Next, we re-use the previous theoretical derivations for the problem with boundary conditions applied at the wrong position and/or with an incorrect normal (a typical result with a less than perfect mesh generator). Possible error sources are discussed and a crude error estimate is derived.
