Initial Stress Formulation for Three-Dimensional Elastoplastic Analysis by Triple-Reciprocity Boundary Element Method

A General Boundary-Integral Formulation for Zoned Three-Dimensional Media

A new boundary-integral formulation is proposed to analyze the heat transfer in zoned three-dimensional geometries. The proposed formulation couples the boundary formula, the gradient of the boundary formula, and the exterior formula. An advantage of this formulation over the traditional methods is that any linear condition at the interface between subdomains may be incorporated into the formul...

A coupled Element Free Galerkin / Boundary Element method for stress analysis of two-dimensional solids

(2001) A coupled Element Free Galerkin / Boundary Element method for stress analysis of two-dimensional solids. Abstract Element Free Galerkin (EFG) method is a newly developed meshless method for solving partial differential equations using Moving Least Squares interpolants. It is, however, computationally expensive for many problems. A coupled EFG/Boundary Element (BE) method is proposed in t...

Coupling of Natural Boundary Element Method and Finite Element Method for Three-dimensional Nonlinear Interface Problem

Coupling of Natural Boundary Element Method and Finite Element Method for Three-dimensional Nonlinear Interface Problem Hong-ying Huang2,1 and De-hao Yu 2 Summary In this paper, we apply the coupling of natural boundary element method and finite element method to solve a three-dimensional nonlinear interface problem. Two equations are coupled by interface conditions on the interface boundary. A...
