Coupling of BEM and FEM for elastic structures

From MaRDI portal





The paper presents a numerical method for the solution of elliptic boundary value problems. As an application, the authors analyse the problems in linear elasticity. Especially, the zones with high stress gradients arround notches are resolved. The BEM substructures are interpreted as special finite elements in coupling of BEM and FEM. This strategy allows the implementation of the coupling method as an extension module in existing FEM computer code. A special characteristic of coupling algorithm is the non-conformity of the discretizations. Besides the larger flexibility concerning the mesh generation, the strategy is important for the parallelization of the algorithm. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0877.00013].
