Boundary Integral Equation Formulations for Piezoelectric Solids Containing Thin Shapes

A weakly-singular form of the piezoelectric boundary integral equation (BIE) formulation is introduced in this paper, which eliminates the calculation of any singular integrals in the piezoelectric BIE. The crucial question of whether or not the piezoelectric BIE will degenerate when applied to crack and thin shell-like problems is discussed. It can be shown analytically that the conventional B...

Boundary temperature reconstruction in an inverse heat conduction problem using boundary integral equation method

‎In this paper‎, ‎we consider an inverse boundary value problem for two-dimensional heat equation in an annular domain‎. ‎This problem consists of determining the temperature on the interior boundary curve from the Cauchy data (boundary temperature and heat flux) on the exterior boundary curve‎. ‎To this end‎, ‎the boundary integral equation method is used‎. ‎Since the resulting system of linea...

On the Boundary Integral Equation Method for a Mixed Boundary Value Problem of the Biharmonic Equation

This paper is concerned with weak solution of a mixed boundary value problem for the biharmonic equation in the plane. Using Green’s formula, the problem is converted into a system of Fredholm integral equations for the unknown data on different part of the boundary. Existence and uniqueness of the solutions of the system of boundary integral equations are established in appropriate Sobolev spa...

A Numerical Boundary Integral Equation Method for Elastodynamics

The boundary initial value problems of elastodynamics are formulated as boundary integral equations. It is shown that these integral equations may be solved by time-stepping numerical methods for the unknown boundary values, A specific numerical scheme is presented for antiplane strain problems and a numerical example is given,
