These two problems have a strong practical application background and important theoretical research value. It is shown that such problems can be transformed into a series of sum-type and bottleneck-type continuous knapsack problems respectively.Based on the property of the optimal solution two O n2 algorithms for solving the two problems are proposed where n is the number of vertices on the tree.展开更多

The kernel function expansion theory is summarized, and four building blocks of the FMBEM are described in details. They are moment calculation, moment to moment translation, moment to local translation, and local to local translation. A data structure for the quad-tree construction is proposed which can facilitate implementation. An analytical moment expression is derived, which is more accurate, stable, and efficient than direct numerical computation. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the FMBEM, and radiation of a 2D vibration rail mode is simulated using the FMBEM.展开更多
