Applying suitable quadrature rules produces a second-order numerical method for the spatial discretization. Boundedness results are proved for the semi-discrete solution, providing the supporting tools needed for the energy, stability and convergence estimates. Consequences of semi-discrete convergence are explored for both the semi-discrete and continuous problems.

In practical simulations, this PML model demonstrates excellent capability in absorbing the outgoing waves.

In this paper, by using the classic energy method with carefully constructed test functions, we successfully establish the stability for this PML model. Building upon this analysis, we develop a finite element scheme to solve this PML model and rigorously prove both discrete stability and optimal-order error estimates. Finally, we present numerical results to support our theoretical analysis and to demonstrate the effectiveness of this PML model in absorbing outgoing waves.","PeriodicalId":55218,"journal":{"name":"Computers & Mathematics with Applications","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148883792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For standard finite element pairs, a robust inf-sup condition is required to show the robustness of the discretization error with respect to the discontinuous viscosity, which has only been proven for the two-subdomain case in the paper [Numer. Math. (2006) 103: 129–149]. To avoid the robust inf-sup condition of a discrete finite element pair for multiple subdomains, we propose an ultra-weak augmented mixed finite element formulation. By adopting a Galerkin-least-squares method, the augmented mixed formulation can achieve stability without relying on the inf-sup condition in both continuous and discrete settings. The key step to have the robust a priori error estimate is that two norms, one energy norm and one full norm, are used in the robust continuity. The robust coercivity is proved for the energy norm. A robust a priori error estimate in the energy norm is then derived with the best approximation property in the full norm for the case of multiple subdomains. Additionally, the paper introduces a singular Kellogg-type example with exact solutions for the first time.
