Abstract

The boundary integral equations derived from Kirchhoff’s formula and its normal derivative form are available for the numerical calculation of transient waves in rooms. The two equations are compared in view of the stability and accuracy in the numerical calculation of responses in a rigid cubic room in which rigorous responses can be obtained by the image method. Some source waves and some problems appear in the numerical implementation such as the singular integrals, and the treatment of absorbent surfaces is also investigated. Finally, it is shown that the boundary integral equation method is a powerful tool to obtain transient waves in rooms.
