finite and boundary element methods have been used by many authors to solve mathematicalphysics problems. however, the coupling of these two methods happens to be more efficient as it combinestheir merits. in this paper, the mathematical analysis of the coupling of finite and boundary element methodsfor the helmholtz equation is presented.

in this study, focuses on applying the hp-version for forward modeling. the eit forward solver is normally based on the conventional finite element method (hfem). in h-fem, the polynomial order p of the element shape functions is constant and the element size h, is decreased. to accurately simulate the forward solution with the hfem, a mesh with large number of nodes and elements is usually need...

An iterative coupling of finite element and boundary element methods for the investigation of coupled fluid-solid systems is presented. While finite elements are used to model the solid, the adjacent fluid is represented by boundary elements. In order to perform the coupling of the two numerical methods, a successive renewal of the variables on the interface between the two subdomains is perfor...

We derive and implement boundary integral methods for axisymmetric liquid bridge problems in the presence of an axial electric field. The liquid bridge is bounded by solid parallel electrodes placed perpendicular to the axis of symmetry and held at a constant potential difference. The fluid is assumed to be nonconducting and has permittivity different from that of the passive surrounding medium...
