Abstract
A coupling algorithm based on the finite element method (FEM) and the wideband fast multipole boundary element method (wideband FMBEM) is proposed for acoustic fluid–structure interaction simulation and structural–acoustic design sensitivity analysis by using the direct differentiation method. The wideband fast multipole method (FMM), which is developed by combining the original FMM and the diagonal form FMM, is used to accelerate the calculation of the matrix–vector products in boundary element analysis. The iterative solver generalized minimal residual method is applied to accelerate the calculation of the solution to the linear system of equations. The FEM/wideband FMBEM algorithm makes it possible to predict the effects of arbitrarily shaped vibrating structures on the sound field numerically. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the validity and efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
