Asymptotic expansions of the eigenvalues of a 2-D boundary-value problem relative to two cavities linked by a hole of small size
Abstract
This note presents the derivation of the second-order asymptotic expansion of the eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions of the operator associated to an interior elliptic equation supplemented by a Dirichlet boundary condition on a domain consisting of two cavities linked by a hole of small size. The asymptotic expansion is carried out with respect to the size of the hole. The main feature of the method is to yield a robust numerical procedure making it possible to compute the eigenvalues without resorting to a refined mesh around the hole.
