BEM-based fast frequency sweep for acoustic scattering by periodic slab

This paper presents a boundary element method (BEM) for computing the energy transmittance of a singly-periodic grating in 2D for a wide frequency band, which is of engineering interest in various fields with possible applications to acoustic metamaterial design. The proposed method is based on the Pad\'e approximants of the response. The high-order frequency derivatives of the sound pressure necessary to evaluate the approximants are evaluated by a novel fast BEM accelerated by the fast-multipole and hierarchical matrix methods combined with the automatic differentiation. The target frequency band is divided adaptively, and the Pad\'e approximation is used in each subband so as to accurately estimate the transmittance for a wide frequency range. Through some numerical examples, we confirm that the proposed method can efficiently and accurately give the transmittance even when some anomalies and stopband exist in the target band.
