✦ Synopsis

An efficient indirect boundary element solution procedure for the analysis of multi-frequency acoustic problems is developed by incorporating techniques that improve the efficiency of the integration and matrix solution phases of the computing process. The integration phase is made efficient by computing the system matrices at few predetermined key frequencies only and then evaluating the matrices at other intermediate frequencies by quadratic interpolation. The matrix solution process is made efficient by iterating the solutions using the factored form of the key frequency matrices. The effectiveness of the present development is confirmed by solving a number of example problems.
