Iterative coupling of FEM and BEM in 3D transient elastodynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
A domain decomposition approach is presented for the transient analysis of three-dimensional wave propagation problems. The subdomains are modelled using the FEM and/or the BEM, and the coupling of the subdomains is performed in an iterative manner, employing a sequential Neumann–Dirichlet interface relaxation algorithm which also allows for an independent choice of the time step length in each subdomain. The approach has been implemented for general 3D problems. In order to investigate the convergence behaviour of the proposed algorithm, using different combinations of FEM and BEM subdomains, a parametric study is performed with respect to the choice of the relaxation parameters. The validity of the proposed method is shown by means of two numerical examples, indicating the excellent accuracy and applicability of the new formulation. q 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Stiffeners Mechanical Effect Analysis by Numerical Coupling
Given any structure, we seek to find the solution of mechanical problem as precisely and efficiently as possible. Within this condition, the BEM is robust and promising development, standing out in the analysis of cases with occurrence of large stress gradients, as in problems of fracture mechanics. Moreover, in BEM the modeling of infinite means is performed naturally, without the use of appro...
متن کاملDomain decomposition with non-matching grids for coupling of FEM and natural BEM
In this paper, we introduce a domain decomposition method with non-matching grids for solving Dirichlet exterior boundary problems by coupling of finite element method (FEM) and natural boundary element method(BEM). We first derive the optimal energy error estimate of the nonconforming approximation generated by this method. Then we apply a Dirichlet-Neumann(D-N) alternating algorithm to solve ...

The purpose of this paper is to present an adaptive FEM-BEM coupling method that is valid for both twoand three-dimensional elasto-plastic analyses. The method takes care of the evolution of the elastic and plastic regions. It eliminates the cumbersome of a trial and error process in the identification of the FEM and BEM sub-domains in the standard FEM-BEM coupling approaches. The method estima...
متن کاملClassical FEM - BEM coupling methods : nonlinearities , well - posedness , and adaptivity
We consider a (possibly) nonlinear interface problem in 2D and 3D, which is solved by use of various adaptive FEM-BEM coupling strategies, namely the Johnson-Nédélec coupling, the Bielak-MacCamy coupling, and Costabel’s symmetric coupling. We provide a framework to prove that the continuous as well as the discrete Galerkin solutions of these coupling methods additionally solve an appropriate op...

An overlapping iterative domain decomposition approach for the coupling of the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM) is presented in this paper. In this proposed method, the domain of the original problem is subdivided into a FEM sub-domain and a BEM sub-domain, such that the two sub-domains partially overlap over a common region. The common region is modeled by both...
