A preconditioner for the Helmholtz equation with perfectly matched layer

This paper discusses an iterative method for solving the Helmholtz equation with the perfectly matched layer (PML). The method consists of an outer and inner iteration process. The inner iteration is used to approximately solve a preconditioner, which in this case is based on a modified PML equation. The outer iteration is a Krylov subspace...

Some numerical aspects for solving sparse large linear systems derived from the Helmholtz equation

In this report, several numerical aspects and diculties for solving a linear system derived from the time-harmonic wave equations are overviewed. The presentation begins with the derivation of the governing equation for waves propagating in general inhomogeneous media. Due to the need of numerical solutions, various discretizations based on...
