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.

A 3D boundary element method for the determination of the acoustic eigenfrequencies of car compartments, characterized by a unified treatment of Robin, Dirichlet, and Neumann boundary conditions, is presented. The drawback of frequency-dependent matrices of the eigenvalue problem is overcome by means of the Particular Integral Method. Thus, the standard numerical algorithms for the extraction of eigenvalues can be applied. The numerical study contains both a comparison of numerical results with analytical solutions of a simple problem with different types of boundary conditions and a comparison of numerical results of a large-scale problem with respective numerical results, computed on the basis of the finite element method. In addition, for the latter example, different numerical algorithms for the eigenvalue extraction are examined.

The fast multipole boundary element method (FMBEM) is an advanced BEM, with which both the operation count and the memory requirements are O(Na log b N) for large-scale problems, where N is the degree of freedom (DOF), a ≥ 1 and b ≥ 0. In this paper, an efficient technique for analyses of plane-symmetric sound fields in the acoustic FMBEM is proposed. Half-space sound fields where an infinite rigid plane exists are typical cases of these fields. When one plane of symmetry is assumed, the number of elements and cells required for the FMBEM with this technique are half of those for the FMBEM used in a naive manner. In consequence, this technique reduces both the computational complexity and the memory requirements for the FMBEM almost by half. The technique is validated with respect to accuracy and efficiency through numerical study.

Experimental observations and numerical simulations (based on the boundary element method) concerning an oscillating bubble near a flexible (thin) membrane are presented in this paper. The bubbles are created using an underwater electrical spark discharge. It is shown that the presence of a membrane can have a profound influence on the behavior of a bubble.
