This book was released on 1992 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The boundary integral equation/boundary element method (BIE/BEM) has emerged as a powerful alternative tool to other numerical methods for many problems in engineering. The hypersingular BIE's, which are derivatives of conventional BIE's, are indispensable for the analyses of many problems in mechanics by BIE/BEM, such as wave scattering, crack problems, plate bending, thin body and thin inclusion problems, for which the conventional BIE's are insufficient or fail. However, the application of hypersingular BIE's had been very limited because of the difficulty in dealing with the hypersingular integrals involved. In this thesis, the hypersingular BIE's for 3-D acoustic and elastic wave problems are presented in weakly-singular forms. For this purpose, three integral identities for the fundamental solutions of both potential and elastostatic problems are established and employed. These weakly-singular forms of the hypersingular BIE's can be handled easily and no special quadratures are needed in the numerical computation. The composite BIE formulations, which use a linear combination of the conventional and hypersingular BIE's, are applied to overcome the fictitious eigenfrequency difficulty (nonunique solutions) existing in the conventional BIE formulations of exterior acoustic and elastic wave problems. Overhauser $Csp1$ continuous boundary elements, which satisfy the smoothness requirement of the hypersingular BIE's, are implemented for these composite BIE formulations and compared with the traditional $Csp0$ conforming quadratic and non-conforming quadratic elements. Numerical examples of scattering in both acoustic and elastic media clearly demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the developed formulations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains edited papers from IABEM-90, the 1990 Symposium of the Interna tional Association for Boundary Element Methods (IABEM). As stated in the By-Laws of the Association, the purposes of IABEM are: 1. to promote the international exchange of technical information related to the devel opment and application of boundary-integral equation (BIE) formulations and their numerical implementation to problems in engineering and science, commonly referred to as the boundary element method (BEM); 2. to promote research and development activities for the advancement of boundary integral equation methods and boundary element solution algorithms; 3. to foster closer personal relationships within the BEM community of researchers. The objectives of the Symposium, in line with those of the Association, was to provide a forum where the two "souls" of the Association, i. e. , (i) mathematical foundations and numerical aspects, and (ii) engineering applications could be integrated. We believe that the first aspect has been neglected in too many of the BEM Symposia held in the past, which, with a few exceptions (notably, the IUTAM Symposia on the subject) have emphasized the practical aspects of the method. As a consequence, we have tried to give a stronger emphasis to the more theoretical issues: this is attested for instance, by the fact that the two general lectures were given by Prof. Gaetano Fichera, of the University of Rome "La Sapienza," and Prof.

This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: by the author to the English edition The book aims to present a powerful new tool of computational mechanics, complex variable boundary integral equations (CV-BIE). The book is conceived as a continuation of the classical monograph by N. I. Muskhelishvili into the computer era. Two years have passed since the Russian edition of the present book. We have seen growing interest in numerical simulation of media with internal structure, and have evidence of the potential of the new methods. The evidence was especially clear in problems relating to multiple grains, blocks, cracks, inclusions and voids. This prompted me, when preparing the English edition, to place more emphasis on such topics. The other change was inspired by Professor Graham Gladwell. It was he who urged me to abridge the chain of formulae and to increase the number of examples. Now the reader will find more examples showing the potential and advantages of the analysis. The first chapter of the book contains a simple exposition of the theory of real variable potentials, including the hypersingular potential and the hypersingular equations. This makes up for the absence of such exposition in current textbooks, and reveals important links between the real variable BIE and the complex variable counterparts. The chapter may also help readers who are learning or lecturing on the boundary element method.
Download or read book Singular Integral Equations written by E.G. Ladopoulos and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-06-06 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book deals with the finite-part singular integral equations, the multidimensional singular integral equations and the non-linear singular integral equations, which are currently used in many fields of engineering mechanics with applied character, like elasticity, plasticity, thermoelastoplasticity, viscoelasticity, viscoplasticity, fracture mechanics, structural analysis, fluid mechanics, aerodynamics and elastodynamics. These types of singular integral equations form the latest high technology on the solution of very important problems of solid and fluid mechanics and therefore special attention should be given by the reader of the present book, who is interested for the new technology of the twentieth-one century. Chapter 1 is devoted with a historical report and an extended outline of References, for the finite-part singular integral equations, the multidimensional singular integral equations and the non-linear singular integral equations. Chapter 2 provides a finite-part singular integral representation analysis in Lp spaces and in general Hilbert spaces. In the same Chapter are investigated all possible approximation methods for the numerical evaluation of the finite-part singular integral equations, as closed form solutions for the above type of integral equations are available only in simple cases. Also, Chapter 2 provides further a generalization of the well known Sokhotski-Plemelj formulae and the Nother theorems, for the case of a finite-part singular integral equation.

This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Boundary Integral Equation (BIE) or the Boundary Element Method is now well established as an efficient and accurate numerical technique for engineering problems. This book presents the application of this technique to axisymmetric engineering problems, where the geometry and applied loads are symmetrical about an axis of rotation. Emphasis is placed on using isoparametric quadratic elements which exhibit excellent modelling capabilities. Efficient numerical integration schemes are also presented in detail. Unlike the Finite Element Method (FEM), the BIE adaptation to axisymmetric problems is not a straightforward modification of the two or three-dimensional formulations. Two approaches can be used; either a purely axisymmetric approach based on assuming a ring of load, or, alternatively, integrating the three-dimensional fundamental solution of a point load around the axis of rotational symmetry. Throughout this ~ook, both approaches are used and are shown to arrive at identi cal solutions. The book starts with axisymmetric potential problems and extends the formulation to elasticity, thermoelasticity, centrifugal and fracture mechanics problems. The accuracy of the formulation is demonstrated by solving several practical engineering problems and comparing the BIE solution to analytical or other numerical methods such as the FEM. This book provides a foundation for further research into axisymmetric prob lems, such as elastoplasticity, contact, time-dependent and creep prob lems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation deals with sound radiated from vibrating structures, both internal as well as external to the structure. Novel non-hyper-singular [i.e. only stronglysingular] boundary-integral-equations for the gradients of the acoustic velocity potential, involving only O(r-2) singularities at the surface of a 3-D body, are derived, for solving problems of acoustics governed by the Helmholtz dierential equation. The gradients of the fundamental solution to the Helmholtz dierential equation for the velocity potential, are used in this derivation. Several basic identities governing the fundamental solution to the Helmholtz dierential equation for velocity potential, are also derived. Using these basic identities, the strongly singular integral equations for the potential and its gradients [denoted here as -BIE, and q-BIE, respectively], are rendered to be only weakly-singular [i.e. possessing singularities of O(r-1) at the surface of a 3-D body]. These weakly-singular equations are denoted as R-phi-BIE, and R-q-BIE, respectively. General Petrov-Galerkin weak-solutions of R-phi-BIE, and R-q-BIE are discussed; and special cases of collocation-based boundary-element numerical approaches [denoted as BEM-R-phi-BIE, and BEM-R-q-BIE], Symmetric Galerkin Boundary Element approaches [denoted as SGBEM-R-phi-BIE and SGBEM-R-q-BIE], as well as Meshless Local Petrov Galerkin approaches [denoted as MLPG-R-phi-BIE and MLPG-R-q-BIE, respectively] are also presented as a family. The superior accuracy and efficiency of the BEM-R-phi-BIE and BEM-R-q-BIE, SGBEM-R-phi-BIE and SGBEM-R-q-BIE, MLPG-R-phi-BIE and MLPG-R-q-BIE are illustrated, through examples involving acoustic radiation as well as scattering from 3-D bodies possessing smooth surfaces, as well as surfaces with sharp corners. In addition, a kernel independent fast multipole method is introduced further to overcome the drawback of fully populated system matrices in BEM, and denoted here as FMM-BEM. The computational costs of FMM-BEM are at the scale of O(nN), which makes it much faster than the matrix based operation, and suitable for large practical problems of acoustics. The method relies on Chebyshev polynomials for the interpolation part to further reduce the computational cost. Examples are used to demonstrate the improvement.
Download or read book Integral Equation Methods for Acoustic Scattering by Infinite Obstacles and Surfaces written by Andrew Tristan Peplow and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the mathematical and numerical modelling of sound propagation over infinite surfaces in two and three-dimensions. In particular we consider the prediction, in a homogeneous medium, of sound propagation from a source in a cutting out onto flat surrounding ground, and scattering by an infinite rigid obstacle in three dimensions. In Chapter 2 a boundary integral formulation for the two-dimensional Helmholtz equation in a locally-perturbed half-plane with impedance boundary condition is developed to calculate sound propagation out of a cutting onto the surrounding terrain. A main result in this chapter is to show that the integral equation is uniquely solvable. A simple but robust boundary element method is developed and experimental convergence rates and numerical predictions are presented. Chapter 3 is concerned with the asymptotic behaviour of solutions at infinity to multidimensional second kind integral equations. A general second kind integral equation set on an infinite cylindrical surface is analysed in Chapter 4. Under certain conditions it is shown that an approximate solution, obtained by solving an integral equation on a finite cylindrical surface of length 2a, converges to the original solution, as a tends to infinity. Uniform stability and convergence results for a piecewise constant boundary element method for the truncated equations are also obtained. A boundary integral equation, which models three-dimensional acoustic radiation from an infinite rigid cylinder, illustrating the results of Chapters 3 and 4, is examined in Chapter 5.
