Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

In this paper, the fast multipole boundary element method (BEM) for modeling acoustic wave problems in both 3-D full- and half-space domains will be discussed. First, the fast multipole BEM formulations will be presented and then improvements to the formulations and algorithms will be discussed. Examples with large-scale acoustic BEM models, with the DOFs above 2 millions and solved on desktop PCs, will be presented to demonstrate the potential of the fast multipole BEM for modeling large-scale structural acoustic problems.
