Abstract A new definition of the interaction list in the fast multipole method (FMM) is introduced in this paper, which can reduce the moment-to-local (M2L) translations by about 30-40% and therefore improve the efficiency for the FMM. In addition, an adaptive tree structure is investigated, which is potentially more efficient than the oct-tree structure for thin and slender domains as in the case of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). A combination of the modified interaction list (termed L2 modification in the adaptive fast multipole BEM) and the adaptive tree structure in the fast multipole BEM has been implemented for both 3-D potential and… More >
