| Abstract | We present a new version of panel clustering for the boundary element method. The intention of this method is to substantially reduce the work for solving boundary integral equations on complicated two-dimensional manifolds in R 3. The method is based upon a hierarchical structuring of the surface and an approximative factorization of the kernel of the associate integral operator in terms of spherical harmonics. We provide a detailed description of the algorithm together with a rigorous error and complexity analysis. The resulting algorithm reduces the computational cost from O(n 2) down to O(n log 3 n). Finally, several numerical results for various boundary integral equations demonstrate the feasibility of our method. |
