Perfectly Matched Layers (PMLs)
Care should be taken when setting up perfectly matched layers (PMLs) in multiphysics models where different waves propagate. A discussion about the Acoustic-Structure interaction situation is given in
Configuration of Perfectly Matched Layers (PMLs) for Acoustic-Structure Interaction Models
in
Modeling with the Acoustic-Structure Interaction Branch
. The approach described is valid in general for models where several sound speeds are present.
