Boundary element acoustics is a technology used to simulate radiated acoustics. This webex will explain the basic differences between the finite element method and the boundary element method. The Boundary Element Method (BEM) effectively reduces complex 3D geometry to 2D surface dimensions. Only the surface areas of the structural systems that are vibrating or scattering sound need to be modeled. The BEM model sizes are typically limited to a few thousand elements, resulting in relatively small, easy-to-create, easy-to-check and easy-to-handle models, as opposed to the complexity of full 3D Finite Element models. These reduced models also deliver results in a shorter timeframe, allowing users to quickly get insights in the acoustic performance of their designs.
Once a basic understanding is obtained some application examples will be shown both in the presentation and then backed up by a short demonstration using LMS Virtual.Lab. 15 minutes will also be reserved for a question and answer session and there is also time available after the webex to talk to the presenter to get further information on Virtual.Lab acoustics and it’s technology.
