Abstract

The paper presents solutions of a two-dimensional wave equation by using Trefftz functions. Two ways of obtaining different forms of these functions are shown. The first one is based on a generating function for the wave equation and leads to recurrent formulas for functions and their derivatives. The second one is based on a Taylor series expansion and additionally uses the inverse Laplace operator. Obtained wave functions can be used to solve the wave equation in the whole considered domain or can be used as base functions in FEM. For solving the problem three kinds of modified FEM are used: nodeless, continuous and discontinuous FEM. In order to compare the results obtained with the use of the aforementioned methods, a problem of membrane vibrations has been considered.
