Sponsored by the US National Science Foundation, a workshop on the boundary element
method (BEM) was held on the campus of the University of Akron during September 1–3 …

Boundary element methods for steady state problems have reached a state of maturity in
both analysis and efficient implementation and have become an ubiquitous tool in …

In this work, we study the accuracy and efficiency of hierarchical matrix (H-matrix) based fast
methods for solving dense linear systems arising from the discretization of the 3D …

Time domain boundary element formulations can be established either directly in time
domain or via Laplace or Fourier domain. Somewhere in between are the convolution …

Many applications lead to large systems of linear equations with dense matrices. Direct
matrix-vector products become prohibitive, since the computational cost increases …

This paper presents a numerical method based on a two-and-a-half dimensional (2.5 D)
boundary element-finite element (BEM-FEM) coupled formulation to study noise and …

We present a method for simulating brittle fracture under the assumptions of quasi-static
linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). Using the boundary element method (BEM) and …

We present a boundary element based method for fast simulation of brittle fracture. By
introducing simplifying assumptions that allow us to quickly estimate stress intensities and …

This article is mainly devoted to a review on fast BEMs for elastodynamics, with particular
attention on time-harmonic fast multipole methods (FMMs). It also includes original results …

The indirect boundary integral formulation is inspired by the potential theory which is usually
applied to Laplace's equation (scalar or vector). Considering the similarity between Laplace …
