Acoustic waves interacting with non--locally reacting surfaces in a Lagrangian framework (2501.04590v1)

Abstract: The paper deals with a family of evolution problems arising in the physical modeling of small amplitude acoustic phenomena occurring in a fluid, bounded by a surface of extended reaction. They are all derived in a Lagrangian framework. We study well-posedness of these problems, their mutual relations, and their relations with other evolution problems modeling the same physical phenomena. They are those introduced in an Eulerian framework and those which deal with the (standard in Theoretical Acoustics) velocity potential. The latter reduce to the well--known wave equation with acoustic boundary conditions. Finally, we prove that all problems are asymptotically stable provided the system is linearly damped.
