To filter out these fictitious eigenfrequencies, a scheme based on the combined Helmholtz integral equation formulation (CHIEF) can be used to prevent the so-called non-uniqueness problem, although it requires additional equations and points. The BEM formulation final accuracy will, however, depend on the correct choice of these points. Here, a strategy to help in defining good approximations for the position and number of such points is proposed, based on an optimization process which maximizes the system matrix’s smallest singular value. The accuracy of the method for exterior radiation problems is investigated using different examples. With low computational cost and simple implementation, the two proposed algorithms automatically circumvent the non-uniqueness problem, aiding the implementation of more stable BEM codes. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/113665 | ISSN: | 2076-3417 | DOI: | 10.3390/app13064001 | Rights: | openAccess |
