Abstract

A modified dual-level algorithm is proposed in the article. By the help of the dual level structure, the fully-populated interpolation matrix on the fine level is transformed to a local supported sparse matrix to solve the highly ill-conditioning and excessive storage requirement resulting from fully-populated interpolation matrix. The kernel-independent fast multipole method is adopted to expediting the solving process of the linear equations on the coarse level. Numerical experiments up to 2-million fine-level nodes have successfully been achieved. It is noted that the proposed algorithm merely needs to place 2–3 coarse-level nodes in each wavelength per direction to obtain the reasonable solution, which almost down to the minimum requirement allowed by the Shannon’s sampling theorem. In the real human head model example, it is observed that the proposed algorithm can simulate well computationally very challenging exterior high-frequency harmonic acoustic wave propagation up to 20,000 Hz.
