Recently, a novel prediction technique has been developed based on the indirect Trefftz approach. This new wave based method is computationally more efficient than the element based methods and, as a consequence, can tackle problems also at higher frequencies. This paper discusses the basic principles of the new method and illustrates its performance for the two-dimensional radiation analysis of a bass-reflex loudspeaker.}, DOI = {10.3970/cmes.2005.007.173} }
