Element Method

This paper presents a Galerkin boundary element method for solving crack problems governed by potential theory in nonhomogeneous media. In the simple boundary element method, the nonhomogeneous problem is reduced to a homogeneous problem using variable transformation. Cracks in heat conduction problem in functionally graded materials are investigated. The thermal conductivity varies parabolically in one or more coordinates. A three dimensional boundary element implementation using the Galerkin approach is presented. A numerical example demonstrates the eáciency of the method. The result of the test example is in agreement with ßnite element simulation results.

Element Method

In this paper, a new and simple boundary element method without internal cells is presented for the analysis of elastoplastic problems, based on an effective transformation technique from domain integrals to boundary integrals. The strong singularities appearing in internal stress integral equations are removed by transforming the domain integrals to the boundary. Other weakly singular domain integrals are transformed to the boundary by approximating the initial stresses with radial basis functions combined with polynomials in global coordinates. Three numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Element Method

In the present work creeping three-dimensional flows of a viscous liquid in a cylindrical tube and a channel of variable cross-section are studied. A qualitative triangulation of the surface of a cylindrical tube, a smoothed and experimental channel of a variable cross section is constructed. The problem is solved numerically using boundary element method in several modifications for a periodic and non-periodic flows. The obtained numerical results are compared with the analytical solution for the Poiseuille flow.

Element Method

In this work the 3D dynamics of two immiscible liquids in unbounded domain at low Reynolds numbers is considered. The numerical method is based on the boundary element method, which is very efficient for simulation of the three-dimensional problems in infinite domains. To accelerate calculations and increase the problem size, a heterogeneous approach to parallelization of the computations on the central (CPU) and graphics (GPU) processors is applied. To accelerate the iterative solver (GMRES) and overcome the limitations associated with the size of the memory of the computation system, the software component of the matrix-vector product

Element Method

An approach to developing a general technique for constructing reduced-order models of unsteady flows about three-dimensional complex geometries is presented. The boundary element method along with the potential flow is used to analyze unsteady flows over two-dimensional airfoils, three-dimensional wings, and wing-body configurations. Eigenanalysis of unsteady flows over a NACA 0012 airfoil, a three-dimensional wing with the NACA 0012 section and a wing-body configuration is performed in time domain based on the unsteady boundary element formulation. Reduced-order models are constructed with and without the static correction. The numerical results demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the present method in reduced-order modeling of unsteady flows over complex configurations.
