The Boundary Element Method sets out a simple, efficient and cost
effective computational technique which provides numerical
solutions -- for objects of any shape -- for a wide range of
scientific and engineering problems. The Boundary Element Method
provides a complete approach to formulating boundary integral
equations for scientific and engineering problems and solving them
numerically using an element approximation. Only a knowledge of
elementary calculus is required, since the text begins by relating
familiar differential equations to integral equations and then
moves on to the simple solution of integral equations. From this
starting point, the mathematics of formulation and numerical
approximation are developed progressively with every mathematical
step being provided. Particular attention is paid to the problem of
accurate evaluation of singular integrands and to the use of
increasing levels of accuracy provided by constant, linear and
quadratic approximations. This enables a full solution to be given
for both two dimensional and three dimensional potential problems
and finally, for the two dimensional elastostatics problem. The
Boundary Element Method develops the mathematics of the text
progressively both within chapters and from chapter to chapter. It
is a self-contained, step by step, exposition of the boundary
element method, leading to its application to the key problem of
elastostatics. The Boundary Element Method may be used as a
standard introductory reference text for the mathematics of this
method and is ideal for final year undergraduate study as well as
for postgraduates, scientists and engineers new to the subject.
Worked examples and exercises are providedthroughout the text.
