مستخلص: In this paper, we consider 3D wave propagation problems in unbounded domains, such as those of acoustic waves in non viscous fluids, or of seismic waves in (infinite) homogeneous isotropic materials, where the propagation velocity c is much higher than 1. For example, in the case of air and water c ≈ 343 m / s and c ≈ 1500 m / s respectively, while for seismic P-waves in linear solids we may have c ≈ 6000 m / s or higher. These waves can be generated by sources, possible away from the obstacles. We further assume that the dimensions of the obstacles are much smaller than that of the wave velocity, and that the problem transients are not excessively short. For their solution we consider two different approaches. The first directly uses a known space–time boundary integral equation to determine the problem solution. In the second one, after having defined an artificial boundary delimiting the region of computational interest, the above mentioned integral equation is interpreted as a non reflecting boundary condition to be coupled with a classical finite element method. For such problems, we show that in some cases the computational cost and storage, required by the above numerical approaches, can be significantly reduced by taking into account a property that till now has not been considered. To show the effectiveness of this reduction, the proposed approach is applied to several problems, including multiple scattering. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
