Boundary regularized integral equation formulation of the Helmholtz equation in acoustics

A boundary integral formulation for the solution of the Helmholtz equation is developed in which all traditional singular behaviour in the boundary integrals is removed analytically. The numerical precision of this approach is illustrated with calculation of the pressure field owing to radiating bodies in acoustic wave problems. This method facilitates the use of higher order surface elements t...

Dispersion analysis of the meshless local boundary integral equation (LBIE) method for the Helmholtz equation

Numerical solutions of the Helmholtz equation suffer from numerical pollution especially for the case of high wavenumbers. The major component of the numerical pollution is, as has been reported in the literature, the dispersion error which is defined as the phase difference between the numerical and the exact wave. The dispersion error for the meshless methods can be a priori determined at an ...

A fast numerical solution for the first kind boundary integral equation for the Helmholtz equation

The main purpose of this paper is to develop a fast numerical method for solving the first kind boundary integral equation, arising from the two-dimensional interior Dirichlet boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation with a smooth boundary. This method leads to a fully discrete linear system with a sparse coefficient matrix. We observe that it requires a nearly linear computational cos...

Fast integral equation methods for the modified Helmholtz equation

Talk Abstract We present an efficient integral equation method approach to solve the forced heat equation, ut(x) − ∆u(x) = F (x, u, t), in a two dimensional, multiply connected domain, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We first discretize in time, which is known as Rothe’s method, resulting in a non-homogeneous modified Helmholtz equation that is solved at each time step. We formulate the sol...
