The boundary element method of peridynamics [PDF]
AbstractThe peridynamic theory brings advantages in dealing with discontinuities, dynamic loading, and nonlocality. The integro‐differential formulation of peridynamics poses challenges to numerical solutions of complicated and practical problems. Some important issues attract much attention, such as the computation of infinite domains, the treatment ...

Experimental Analysis and Simulation of a Porous Absorbing Layer for Noise Barriers
Noise barriers are common noise mitigation measures usually implemented near roads or railways, with proven efficiency. This work presents a study of a porous concrete material incorporating expanded clay as aggregate, to be used on the sound-absorption ...

Mortar Boundary Elements [PDF]
We establish a mortar boundary element scheme for hypersingular boundary integral equations representing elliptic boundary value problems in three dimensions. We prove almost quasi-optimal convergence of the scheme in broken Sobolev norms of order 1/2.

HIERARCHICAL BOUNDARY ELEMENTS [PDF]
In this paper we show the possibility of applying adaptive procedures as an alternative to the well-known philosophy of standard Boundary Elements. The three characteristic steps of adaptive procedures, i.e. hierarchical shape functions families, indicator criteria, and a posteriori estimation, can be defined in order to govern an automatic refinement ...

An Optimization Strategy to Position CHIEF Points in Boundary-Element Acoustic Problems
The use of boundary elements in the analysis of exterior acoustic problems poses challenges at specific frequencies, since fictitious eigenfrequencies may arise at the internal resonances of cavities, leading to inaccurate results or even unstable ...

Experimental Study of Supersonic Boundary Layer Transition Induced by Cylindrical Roughness Elements
The boundary layer transition process induced by different heights and quantities of the cylindrical roughness elements at Mach 3.0 is investigated experimentally by using the nano-tracer-based planar laser scattering (NPLS) technique. Fine structures of

A modified scaled boundary method to analyze structural elements [PDF]
It is possible to resolve numerical issues by utilizing a method known as the conventional scaled boundary finite element method (also known as SBFEM), which is a dimension reduction technique.

Coarsening of Boundary-element Spaces [PDF]
In this paper, we will present composite boundary elements (CBE) for classical Fredholm boundary integral equations. These new boundary elements allow the low-dimensional discretisation of boundary integral equations where the minimal number of degrees of freedom is independent of the, possibly, huge number of charts which are necessary to describe a ...
