An elastodynamic Galerkin Boundary Element Formulation for semi-infinite domains in time-domain

Galerkin Boundary Element Methods for Electromagnetic Scattering

Methods based on boundary integral equations are widely used in the numerical simulation of electromagnetic scattering in the frequency domain. This article examines a particular class of these methods, namely the Galerkin boundary element approach, from a theoretical point of view. Emphasis is put on the fundamental differences between acoustic and electromagnetic scattering. The derivation of...

The Finite Element Method for Infinite Domains

Numerical methods (finite element methods) for the approximate solution of elliptic partial differential equations on unbounded domains are considered, and error bounds, with respect to the number of unknowns which have to be determined, are proven.

Axisymmetric Scaled Boundary Finite Element Formulation for Wave Propagation in Unbounded Layered Media

Wave propagation in unbounded layered media with a new formulation of Axisymmetric Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method (AXI-SBFEM) is derived. Dividing the general three-dimensional unbounded domain into a number of independent two-dimensional ones, the problem could be solved by a significant reduction in required storage and computational time. The equations of the corresponding Axisymmetri...

Time Domain Boundary Element Method for Room Acoustics

seismic waves scattering in three-dimensional homogeneous media using time-domain boundary element method

it is well established that the seismic ground response of surface topographies may differ from those of free field motion during earthquakes. complex nature of seismic wave scattering by topographical structures can only be solved accurately and economically using advanced numerical methods under realistic conditions. among the numerical methods, the boundary element is a powerful numerical te...
