HI,

I'm trying to simulate the Doppler effect. Currently I am simply
changing the frequency of the source before it reaches the observer
and after appropriately using the standard Doppler effect. However,
this is not sufficient as the transition from one frequency to another
happens instantaneously as supposed to gradually i.e the Doppler
effect. I would like to know how to model the Doppler effect correctly
if anyone can help.

You might check Wikipedia which has a pretty good description of the Doppler frequency as a function of velocity...
