On the coupling of BEM and FEM for exterior problems for the Helmholtz equation

چکیده

This paper deals with the coupled procedure of the boundary element method (BEM) and the finite element method (FEM) for the exterior boundary value problems for the Helmholtz equation. A circle is selected as the common boundary on which the integral equation is set up with Fourier expansion. As a result, the exterior problems are transformed into nonlocal boundary value problems in a bounded domain which is treated with FEM, and the normal derivative of the unknown function at the common boundary does not appear. The solvability of the variational equation and the error estimate are also discussed.

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...

Numerical Solution of Helmholtz Equation by Boundary Elements Method

Boundary elements method is well-suited for computational acoustics. The main profit it brings is reduction in number of unknowns compared to FEM. However, application of BEM to sound scattering problems has shown, that this advantage is lost in case of high frequency waves. High frequencies require larger number of elements which contradicts the initial purpose of using BEM in solvers and may ...

Comparing FEM-BEM and FEM-DBCI for open-boundary electrostatic field problems

This paper compares the hybrid FEM-BEM and FEM-DBCI methods for the solution of openboundary electrostatic field problems. Both methods couple a differential equation for the interior problem with an integral equation for the exterior one. The comparison shows that FEM-BEM is more accurate than FEM-DBCI but requires more computing time. PACS. 41.20.Cv Electrostatics; Poisson and Laplace equatio...

A new method for true and spurious eigensolutions of arbitrary cavities using the combined Helmholtz exterior integral equation formulation method.

Integral equation methods have been widely used to solve interior eigenproblems and exterior acoustic problems (radiation and scattering). It was recently found that the real-part boundary element method (BEM) for the interior problem results in spurious eigensolutions if the singular (UT) or the hypersingular (LM) equation is used alone. The real-part BEM results in spurious solutions for inte...
