Boundary Integral Methods in Low Frequency Acoustics

چکیده
Abstract This expository paper is concerned with the direct integral formulations for boundary value problems of the Helmholtz equation. We discuss unique solvability for the corresponding boundary integral equations and its relations to the interior eigenvalue value problems of the Laplacian. Based on the integral representations, we study the asymptotic behaviors of the solutions to the boundary value problems when the wave number tends to zero. We arrive at the asymptotic expansions for the solutions, and show that in all the cases, the leading terms in the expansions are always the corresponding potentials for the Laplacian. Our integral equation procedures developed here are general enough and can be adapted for treating similar low frequency scattering problems.

A low-frequency fast multipole boundary element method based on analytical integration of the hypersingular integral for 3D acoustic problems
A low-frequency fast multipole boundary element method (FMBEM) for 3D acoustic problems is proposed in this paper. The FMBEM adopts the explicit integration of the hypersingular integral in the dual boundary integral equation (BIE) formulation which was developed recently by Matsumoto, Zheng et al. for boundary discretization with constant element. This explicit integration formulation is analy...

A collocation method with the modified equilibrium on line method (ELM) forimposition of Neumann and Robin boundary conditions is presented for solving the two-dimensionalacoustical problems. In the modified ELM, the governing equations are integrated over the lines onthe Neumann (Robin) boundary instead of the Neumann (Robin) boundary condition equations. Inother words, integration domains are...

The aim of the present paper is, to employ the Hybrid Stress Boundary Element Method for the computation of acoustic scattering and radiation in innnite domains. The introduced method is based on multi-eld variational principles and leads to symmetric matrices. Starting from Hellinger-Reissner's principle in the frequency domain a two-eld hybrid principle for acoustics is developed allowing for...
متن کاملComputing diffraction integrals with the numerical method of steepest descent
A common type of integral to solve numerically in computational room acoustics and other applications is the diffraction integral. Various formulations are encountered but they are usually of the Fourier-type, which means an oscillating integrand which becomes increasingly expensive to compute for increasing frequencies. Classical asympotic solution methods, such as the stationary-phase method,...
متن کاملThe Acoustic Diffusion Model for Single and Coupled Interior Volumes Using the Boundary Element Method
Recently, a new model for the propagation of sound in interior volumes known as the acoustic diffusion model has been explored as an alternative method for acoustic predictions and analysis. The model uses statistical methods standard in high frequency room acoustics to compute a spatial distribution of acoustic energy over time as a diffusion process. For volumes coupled through a structural p...
