Boundary Element Methods in Acoustics

by C.A. Brebbia, R D Ciskowski

This book focuses exclusively on research and applications involving the use of boundary elements to solve problems in acoustics. It gives basic finite formulations, organization of computations, symmetry considerations, new techniques for improving computational efficiency while maintaining accuracy, validation of the model and illustrations of its generality with specific examples, and techniques for generating and interpreting surface motions.
