The boundary element method (BEM) in the context of acoustics or Helmholtz problems is
reviewed in this paper. The basis of the BEM is initially developed for Laplace's equation …

The modern scope of boundary element methods (BEM) for acoustics is reviewed in this
paper. Over the last decades the BEM has gained popularity despite suffering from …

Acoustic waves are fascinating phenomena in gases, liquids or solids with numerous
physical and technical aspects. Air is the medium of interest when it comes to audible sound …

Low noise constructions receive more and more attention in highly industrialized countries.
Consequently, decrease of noise radiation challenges a growing community of engineers …

The phenomenon of irregular frequencies or spurious modes when solving the Kirchhoff–
Helmholtz integral equation has been extensively studied over the last six or seven …

Brake squeal has become of increasing concern to the automotive industry but guidelines
on how to confidently predict squeal propensity are yet to be established. While it is standard …

This paper presents an efficient topology optimization procedure for exterior acoustic‐
structure interaction problems, in which the coupled systems are formulated by the boundary …

The commonly applied rule of thumb to use a fixed number of elements per wavelength in
linear time–harmonic acoustics is discussed together with the question of using either …

Continuous interpolation of the sound pressure is favored in most applications of boundary
element methods for acoustics. Few papers are known to the authors in which discontinuous …

Abstract Boundary Element Method frequency sweep analyses in acoustics are usually
accompanied by a vast numerical cost of assembling and solving numerous linear systems …
