Perfectly matched layers

Submitted by setareh on

Hello,

 

I am looking for a practical reference/example on how to implement the perfectly matched layers for mechanical problems in a Finite Element code. I want to model a plate where it is surrounded by the PML from all sides, like a piece of earth crust surrounded by the land. The sources which I see for PML, are mostly in the area of electromagnetics.

 

Your inputs are appreciated.
