In noise source identification based on the inverse boundary element method (IBEM), the boundary vibration velocity is predicted based on the field pressure through a transfer matrix of the vibration velocity and field pressure established on the Helmholtz integral equation. Because the matrix is often ill-posed, it needs to be regularized before reconstructing the vibration velocity. Two regularization methods and two methods of selecting the regularization parameter are investigated through the simulation analysis of a pulsating sphere. The result of transfer matrix regularization is further verified through the reconstruction of the vibration of an aluminum plate. Additionally, to reduce the large errors at some frequencies in the reconstruction result, increasing the number of measuring points is more effective than reducing the distance between the measurement plane and the sound source.

The purpose of the paper is to apply two methods to groundwater pollution in porous media. The methods are the weighted finite difference method and the boundary element method, which were proposed or developed by Kanoh et al. (1986,1988) for advective diffusion problems. Numerical modeling of groundwater pollution is also investigated in this paper. By subdividing the domain into subdomains, the nonlinearity is localized to a small region. Computational time for groundwater pollution problems can be saved by the boundary element method; accurate numerical results can be obtained by the weighted finite difference method. The computational solutions to the problem of seawater intrusion into coastal aquifers are compared with experimental results.
