One of the most interesting developments in engineering analysis
during the last few years has been the rapid growth of boundary
element methods. The first and second international conferences on
this topic held in 1978 and 1980 attracted approximately 30 papers
each, most of them from a few well known groups around the world.
The third meeting in 1981, produced instead approximately 40
papers, many of them from young investigators working in newly
created research groups. They have been attracted to boundary
elements by the many advantages of the technique and were able to
assimilate rapidly, the new ideas unencumbered by previous con
ceptions. That third conference held in 1981 constituted in many
ways a turning point for boundary elements and it indicated for the
first time a general awareness of the industry to the research
being carried out in the new technique. Engineering firms started
to appreciate the advantages of the method mainly from the computa
tional aided engineering point of view. The advantages of simple
data input and output was rapidly understood by those professional
engineers who were forced up to them to use cumbersome finite
element codes. Boundary element practitioners in close contacts
with the industry started to perceive that the method was gather
ing a critical momentum of its own. This is now more evident by the
diversity and quality of the papers in this volume, which are the
edited Proceedings of the 4th International Conference, held at the
University of Southampton in September 1982."
