Computation of eigenfrequencies of an acoustic medium in a prolate spheroid by a modified abramov method

The method presented and studied in [1, 2] for solving self-adjoint multiparameter spectral problems for weakly coupled systems of ordinary differential equations is based on marching with respect to a parameter introduced into the problem. Although the method is formally applicable to systems of ordinary differential equations with singularities, its direct use for the numerical solution of the problem indicated in this paper's title is limited. A modification of the method is proposed that applies to the computation of various, including high-frequency, acoustic oscillations in both nearly spherical and strongly prolate spheroids.
