Abstract
The polynomial-based differential quadrature (PDQ) and the Fourier expansio n-based differential quadrature (FDQ) methods are applied in this work to s olve the two-dimensional Helmholtz equation. It is demonstrated through som e sample examples that accurate numerical solution can be obtained by using only 2 to 3 mesh points per wavelength. It was found that the FDQ approach is more suitable for solving the Helmholtz equation. (C) 1999 Elsevier Sci ence S.A. All rights reserved.
