Abstract:
We present a Neumann-subproblem a posteriori finite element procedure for the efficient and accurate calculation of rigorous, constant-free upper and lower bounds for nonlinear outputs of the Helmholtz equation in two-dimensional exterior domains. We first formulate the bound procedure, with particular emphasis on appropriate extension to complex-valued equations; we then provide illustrative numerical examples for outputs such as the intensity of the scattered wave over a small segment of the domain boundary.
