Book - Boundary Elements and Other Mesh Reduction Methods XXXIX (2016, Paperback) TXT, DJV, PDF
9781784661601 English 1784661600 The conference on Boundary Elements and other Mesh Reduction Methods, now in its 39th edition, covers the most recent advances in Boundary Elements and Mesh Reduction Methods and is recognised as THE international forum for the latest advances in these techniques and their applications in science and engineering. The proceedings of this conference series constitute a record of the development of BEM/MRM, running from the initial successful development of boundary integral techniques into the boundary element method, a technique that eliminates the need for an internal mesh, to the recent and most sophisticated Mesh Reduction and even Meshless Methods. Since the boundary elements, mesh reduction, and meshless methods are used in many engineering and scientific fields, the book will be of great interest to all engineers and scientists working within the areas of numerical analysis, boundary elements and meshless methods. The objective of the research papers included in this volume is the further development of techniques that reduce or eliminate the type of meshes required by first generation computational methods, such as finite differences or finite elements. Contributions deal with the use of BEM as well as: the description of new applications; processes such as finite elements; the solution of large systems of equations and the direct coupling of BEM to rapid manufacturing. This valuable collection of papers is an indication of the strength of the research being carried out all over the world. Topics covered include: Advanced formulations; Advanced meshless and mesh reduction methods; Structural mechanics applications; Solid mechanics; Heat and mass transfer; Electrical engineering and electromagnetics; Computational methods; Fluid flow modelling; Damage mechanics and fracture; Dynamics and vibrations; Engineering applications; Interfacing with other methods; Coupling with manufacturing and Solution of large systems of equations.
