Synopsis

In recent years, the application of Boundary Element Methods to acoustical problems has gained much popularity. The methodology is particularly effective and accurate if sound radiation and unbounded acoustic media are involved.

Bringing together chapters from leading university researchers, as well as researchers in industry, this book provides state-of-the-art reports on all aspects of BEM calculations in acoustics. Special attention is paid to efficiency and accuracy issues, frequency and time domain procedures, direct and indirect formulations, hybrid as well as inverse techniques. Emphasis is also placed on applications in different fields, such as vehicle acoustics, engine noise, electroacoustic transducers, optimization of musical instruments, environmental protection, and underwater acoustics.
