Abstract The boundary element method is an established numerical tool for the analysis of acoustic pressure fields in an infinite domain. There is currently no well established method of estimating the surface pressure error distribution for an arbitrary three dimensional body. Hierarchical shape functions have been used as a highly effective form of p refinement in many finite and boundary element applications. Their ability to be used as an error estimator in acoustic analysis has never been fully exploited. This paper studies the influence of mesh density and interpolation order on several acoustic scattering problems. A hierarchical error estimator is implemented and its effectiveness verified against the spherical problem. A coarse cylindrical mesh is then refined using the new error estimator until the solution has converged. The effectiveness of this analysis is shown by comparing the error indicators derived during the analysis to the solution generated from a very fine cylindrical mesh.

AbstractThis paper extends the applicability of the combined use of the virtual element method (VEM) and the boundary element method (BEM), recently introduced to solve the coupling of linear elliptic equations in divergence form with the Laplace equation, to the case of acoustic scattering problems in 2D and 3D. The well-posedness of the continuous and discrete formulations are established, and then Cea-type estimates and consequent rates of convergence are derived.

In the present work creeping three-dimensional flows of a viscous liquid in a cylindrical tube and a channel of variable cross-section are studied. A qualitative triangulation of the surface of a cylindrical tube, a smoothed and experimental channel of a variable cross section is constructed. The problem is solved numerically using boundary element method in several modifications for a periodic and non-periodic flows. The obtained numerical results are compared with the analytical solution for the Poiseuille flow.

In this work the 3D dynamics of two immiscible liquids in unbounded domain at low Reynolds numbers is considered. The numerical method is based on the boundary element method, which is very efficient for simulation of the three-dimensional problems in infinite domains. To accelerate calculations and increase the problem size, a heterogeneous approach to parallelization of the computations on the central (CPU) and graphics (GPU) processors is applied. To accelerate the iterative solver (GMRES) and overcome the limitations associated with the size of the memory of the computation system, the software component of the matrix-vector product
