A highly accurate boundary integral method for the elastic obstacle scattering problem

Boundary Integral Method for Thermoelastic Screen Scattering Problem in R

We investigate a three-dimensional mathematical thermoelastic scattering problem from an open surface which will be referred to as a screen. Under the assumption of the local "nite energy of the uni"ed thermoelastic scattered "eld, we give a weak model on the appropriate Sobolev spaces and derive equivalent integral equations of the "rst kind for the jump of some trace operators on the open sur...

A Volume Integral Equation Method for the Direct/Inverse Problem in Elastic Wave Scattering Phenomena

The analysis of elastic wave propagation and scattering is an important issue in fields such as earthquake engineering, nondestructive testing, and exploration for energy resources. Since the 1980s, the boundary integral equation method has played an important role in the analysis of both forward and inverse scattering problems. For example, Colton and Kress (1998) presented a survey of a vast ...

A Boundary Meshless Method for Neumann Problem

Boundary integral equations (BIE) are reformulations of boundary value problems for partial differential equations. There is a plethora of research on numerical methods for all types of these equations such as solving by discretization which includes numerical integration. In this paper, the Neumann problem is reformulated to a BIE, and then moving least squares as a meshless method is describe...

The singular function boundary integral method for an elastic plane stress wedge beam problem with a point boundary singularity

The singular function boundary integral method (SFBIM) is applied for the numerical solution of a 2-D Laplace model problem of a perfectly elastic wedge beam under plane stress conditions. The beam has a point boundary singularity, it includes a curved boundary part and is subjected to non-trivial distributed external loading. The implemented solution method converges for this special model pro...
