Boundary Integral Formulation (boundary + integral_formulation)
Selected AbstractsA fast boundary cloud method for 3D exterior electrostatic analysisINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR NUMERICAL METHODS IN ENGINEERING, Issue 15 2004Vaishali Shrivastava Abstract An accelerated boundary cloud method (BCM) for boundary-only analysis of 3D electrostatic problems is presented here. BCM uses scattered points unlike the classical boundary element method (BEM) which uses boundary elements to discretize the surface of the conductors. BCM combines the weighted least-squares approach for the construction of approximation functions with a boundary integral formulation for the governing equations. A linear base interpolating polynomial that can vary from cloud to cloud is employed. The boundary integrals are computed by using a cell structure and different schemes have been used to evaluate the weakly singular and non-singular integrals. A singular value decomposition (SVD) based acceleration technique is employed to solve the dense linear system of equations arising in BCM. The performance of BCM is compared with BEM for several 3D examples. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Wen Abstract A new boundary element formulation for analysis of curved cracked panels with adhesively bonded patches is presented in this paper. The effect of the adhesive layer is modelled by distributed body forces (i.e. two in-plane forces, two moments and one out-of-plane force). A coupled boundary integral formulation of a shear deformable plate and two-dimensional plane stress elasticity is used to determine bending and membrane forces along the adhesive layer taking into consideration the compatibility conditions in the patch area. Two numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method. It is shown that the out-of-plane bending behaviour and panel curvature have significant influence on the magnitude of the stress intensity factors. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source] A complete boundary integral formulation for compressible Navier,Stokes equationsINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR NUMERICAL METHODS IN FLUIDS, Issue 12 2005Yang ZuoshengArticle first published online: 29 DEC 200 Abstract A complete boundary integral formulation for compressible Navier,Stokes equations with time discretization by operator splitting is developed using the fundamental solutions of the Helmholtz operator equation with different order. The numerical results for wall pressure and wall skin friction of two-dimensional compressible laminar viscous flow around airfoils are in good agreement with field numerical methods.
