An Efficient Method for Solving Problems of Acoustic Scattering on Three-Dimensional Transparent Structures

Abstract

The article contains a study of methods for solving integral equations in the context of acoustic problems. The methodology considered is applied to describe acoustic wave propagation and scattering. Efficient discretization methods are used together with iterative methods to solve the operator equations, including an apparatus for fast multiplication of the resulting post-discretization Toeplitz matrices by a vector using the fast Fourier transform. The theoretical analysis of the proposed numerical algorithm demonstrates its efficiency in terms of the required number of arithmetic operations and the memory footprint of the computing system. The presented numerical simulation demonstrates the possibility of solving the problem of acoustic wave propagation in transparent media using the proposed methods. A visualization of the obtained solutions for a practical problem with a high level of discretization of the solution volume domain is also presented.
