Review text

This paper presents classical and well-known calculations of acoustic fields by boundary element method. This method is based on solutions to the classical wave equation, treated directly in the time domain by a time stepping scheme, or, after a transformation into frequency domain assuming harmonic time-dependence, by solving the classical Helmholtz equation. In the first case, acoustic wave propagation in homogeneous media is described by Kirchhoff's integral equation. Comparison is made with `point collocation' and `Galerkin method'. In the second case, the Helmholtz equation yields a unique solution provided smooth boundary conditions and Sommerfeld radiation conditions. Boundary integral formulation leads to the classical direct method, implemented numerically by using a multigrid solver. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0877.00013].
