In noise source identification based on the inverse boundary element method (IBEM), the boundary vibration velocity is predicted based on the field pressure through a transfer matrix of the vibration velocity and field pressure established on the Helmholtz integral equation. Because
the matrix is often ill-posed, it needs to be regularized before reconstructing the vibration velocity. Two regularization methods and two methods of selecting the regularization parameter are investigated through the simulation analysis of a pulsating sphere. The result of transfer matrix
regularization is further verified through the reconstruction of the vibration of an aluminum plate. Additionally, to reduce the large errors at some frequencies in the reconstruction result, increasing the number of measuring points is more effective than reducing the distance between the
measurement plane and the sound source.
