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 …

In recent years, boundary element method (BEM) and finite element method (FEM)
implementations of acoustics in fluids with viscous and thermal losses have been …

Sound waves in fluids are subject to viscous and thermal losses, which are particularly
relevant in the so-called viscous and thermal boundary layers at the boundaries, with …

The Helmholtz equation is a reliable model for acoustics in inviscid fluids. Real fluids,
however, experience viscous and thermal dissipation that impact the sound propagation …

In recent years, the boundary element method has shown to be an interesting alternative to
the finite element method for modeling of viscous and thermal acoustic losses. Current …

There is an increasing need in industry for numerical acoustic models including viscous and
thermal losses of sound in air. Small devices such as couplers, microphones, mobile phones …

This paper presents an equivalent source method (ESM) for analyzing sound propagation in
small-scale acoustic structures with thermoviscous effects. The formulations that describe …

The implementation of viscous and thermal losses using the Boundary Element Method
(BEM) is based on the Kirchhoff's dispersion relation and has been tested in previous work …

This chapter is devoted to study the contribution of viscothermal effects in some specific
acoustic metamaterials. Particularly, in those whose negative effective parameters are a …

A range of acoustic engineering problems require the inclusion of viscous and thermal
dissipation to be modelled accurately. The dissipative effects are especially relevant when …
