Abstract:
The boundary element method (BEM), along with the finite element and finite difference methods, is commonly used to carry out numerical simulations in a wide variety of subjects in science and engineering. The BEM, rooted in classical mathematics of integral equations, started becoming a useful computational tool around 50 years ago. Many researchers have worked on computational aspects of this method during this time.This paper presents an overview of the BEM and related methods. It has three sections. The first, relatively short section, presents the governing equations for classical applica

Abstract A FEM-BEM coupling approach is used for acoustic fluid-structure interaction analysis. The FEM is used to model the structure and the BEM is used to model the exterior acoustic domain. The aim of this work is to improve the computational efficiency and accuracy of the conventional FEM-BEM coupling approach. The fast multipole method (FMM) is applied to accelerating the matrix-vector products in BEM. The Burton-Miller formulation is used to overcome the fictitious eigen-frequency problem when using a single Helmholtz boundary integral equation for exterior acoustic problems. The contin

Abstract:
The subject of this paper is an analysis of metal extrusion processes by the boundary element method (BEM). It is demonstrated here that the BEM can be used to analyze, efficiently and accurately, this complicated class of problems including both material and geometrical nonlinearities. Numerical results for sample problems of plane extrusion of aluminum bars, obtained by the BEM, are presented and discussed in this paper. The BEM results are compared against FEM results for the same sample problems. The FEM results were reported by the authors in a previous publication.

Abstract:
A novel formulation of elastic multi-asperity contacts based on the boundary element method (BEM) is presented for the first time, in which the influence coefficients are numerically calculated using a finite element method (FEM). The main advantage of computing the influence coefficients in this manner is that it makes it also possible to consider an arbitrary load direction and multilayer systems of different mechanical properties in each layer. Furthermore, any form of anisotropy can be modelled too, where Green's functions either become very complicated or are not available at all. The res

Abstract:
A semi-analytic method based on the propagation matrix formulation of indirect boundary element method to compute response of elastic (and acoustic) waves in multi-layered media with irregular interfaces is presented. The method works recursively starting from the top-most free surface at which a stress-free boundary condition is applied, and the displacement-stress boundary conditions are then subsequently applied at each interface. The basic idea behind this method is the matrix formulation of the propagation matrix (PM) or more recently the reflectivity method as wide used in the geophysics

Wave field synthesis (WFS) is a spatial audio method that allows for auralization over an extended listening space and for a multi-listener experience. WFS is generally only suitable for simple compact sources and canonical extended virtual sources. It is not yet fully adapted to auralize complex radiating objects modeled via numerical methods, such as the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM). The authors propose an auralization workflow combining either FEM or BEM with WFS, for both coupled (vibroacoustic) and uncoupled (vibration) problems. General expressions ar

In this work the time-domain boundary element method (BEM) is applied to simulate dynamic fracture experiments. The fast fracture is modelled by adding new boundary elements at the crack tip. The direction of crack growth is perpendicular to the direction of maximum circumferencial stress. The time dependent loading of specimens and velocities of crack growth are taken from experiments as input data for computer simulations. The method is used to analyze: a short beam specimen, a special mixed-mode specimen and a three-point bend specimen subjected to impact loads. The dynamic stress intensity

Abstract:
Standard numerical models in acoustics rely on the isentropic Helmholtz equation. Its derivation assumes adiabatic and reversible, i.e., dissipation-free, wave propagation. Sound waves in fluids are, however, subject to viscous and thermal losses. These losses originate from viscous friction and heat conduction, leading to the formation of acoustic boundary layers. Considering these effects becomes significant in setups with acoustic cavities of similar dimension as the boundary layers. Recently, boundary element methods (BEM) accounting for the viscothermal dissipation have been proposed. The

Abstract:
Acoustic emissions play a major role in the usability of many product categories. Therefore, mitigating the emitted sound directly at the source is paramount to improve usability and customer satisfaction. To reliably predict acoustic emissions, numerical methods such as the boundary element method (BEM) are employed, which allow for predicting, e.g., the acoustic emission into the free field. BEM algorithms need appropriate boundary conditions to couple the sound field with the structural motion of the vibrating body. In this contribution, firstly, an interpolation scheme is presented, which

A code for the boundary element method (BEM) for two-dimensional acoustic radiation and scattering problems is developed. To overcome the singularity problem of the integral equations at characteristic frequencies, the Burton–Miller method is employed in the formulation. The integral equations are then discretized by using the two-nodal constant elements and a collocation procedure. The hyper and weakly singular integrals in each element containing the collocation points are computed analytically and numerically respectively (stark singularity does not appear).

Abstract:
The use of acoustic barriers has become a common solution to control and reduce the nuisance caused by transportation noise (e.g. highways, railroads, and aircraft). Acoustic barriers can be defined as any solid obstacle that blocks the straight line between sound source and receptor creating an acoustic shadow region behind. The precise prediction of acoustic barrier behaviour has been the goal of researchers, but the complexity of the phenomenon prevents generality. Many theoretical models are available but they are limited to particular cases. The main objective of this work is to carry out

Design/methodology/approach – The modification consists of overlapping the truncation and the integration boundaries of the standard method, so that the integral equation becomes singular as in the well-known Finite Element Method-Boundary Element Method (FEM-BEM) method. The new method is called FEM-SDBCI. Assuming an unknown Dirichlet condition on the truncation boundary, the global algeb

Abstract:
For problems with very fine surface meshes, typically the most time-consuming step of a boundary element method (BEM, also called a panel method) is solving the final linear system of equations. Many have already studied how to efficiently solve the dense, asymmetric systems which arise in elliptic BEMs. However, this has not been studied for a supersonic aerodynamic BEM, for which the governing PDE is hyperbolic. Due to this hyperbolic character, the matrix equation which arises from a supersonic BEM has a large number of identically zero elements. But the resulting linear system of equations

Abstract:
Recently, some new proposed methods for solving nonlinear eigenvalue problems (NEPs) have promoted the development of large-scale modal analysis using BEM. However, the efficiency and robustness of such methods are generally still dependent on input parameters, especially on the parameters related to the number of eigenvalues to be solved. This limitation obviously restricts the popularization of the practical engineering application of modal analysis using BEM. Therefore, this paper develops a numerical method for estimating the number of nonlinear eigenvalues of the boundary element method.
