Precorrected-FFT Accelerated Singular Boundary Method for High-Frequency Acoustic Radiation and Scattering

This paper presents a precorrected-FFT (pFFT) accelerated singular boundary method (SBM) for acoustic radiation and scattering in the high-frequency regime. The SBM is a boundary-type collocation method, which is truly free of mesh and integration and easy to program. However, due to the expensive CPU time and memory requirement in solving a fully-populated interpolation matrix equation, this method is usually limited to low-frequency acoustic problems. A new pFFT scheme is introduced to overcome this drawback. Since the models with lots of collocation points can be calculated by the new pFFT accelerated SBM (pFFT-SBM), high-frequency acoustic problems can be simulated. The results of numerical examples show that the new pFFT-SBM possesses an obvious advantage for high-frequency acoustic problems.

The Local Singular Boundary Method for Solution of Two-Dimensional Advection–Diffusion Equation

This work focuses on the derivation of the local variant of the singular boundary method (SBM) for solving the advection-diffusion equation of tracer transport. Localization is based on the combination of SBM and finite collocation. Unlike the global variant, local SBM leads to a sparse matrix of the resulting system of equations, making it much more efficient to solve large-scale tasks. It also allows solving velocity vector variable tasks, which is a problem with global SBM. This paper compares the results on several examples for the steady and unsteady variant of the advection-diffusion equation and also examines the dependence of the accuracy of the solution on the density of the nodal grid and the size of the subdomain.
