摘　　要：The exact boundary condition on a spherical artificial boundary is derived for the three-dimensional exterior problem of linear elasticity in this paper. After this boundary condition is imposed on the artificial boundary, a reduced problem only defined in a bounded domain is obtained. A series of approximate problems with increasing accuracy can be derived if one truncates the series term in the variational formulation, which is equivalent to the reduced problem. An error estimate is presented to show how the error depends on the finite element discretization and the accuracy of the approximate problem. In the end, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.The exact boundary condition on a spherical artificial boundary is derived for the three-dimensional exterior problem of linear elasticity in this paper.
