Abstract: An atomic-based finite element method is developed,spanning from atomic scale to macroscopic one. With theoretical deduction dispersion relation and dynamic scattering behavior are calculated. For spurious reflection caused by non-uniform grid,lowpass filter boundary condition is designed to effectively eliminate the reflection of high-frequency phonons,while keeping low-frequency ones transparent. These schemes are demonstrated with numerically calculating reflection and transmission coefficients in onedimensional modeling.

Key words: finite element, filter, reflection coefficient
