AbstractRecently in several papers the boundary element method has been applied to non-linear problems. In this paper we extend the analysis to strongly nonlinear boundary value problems. We shall prove the convergence and the stability of the Galerkin method in Lp spaces. Optimal order error estimates in Lp space then follow. We use the theory of A-proper mappings and monotone operators to prove convergence of the method. We note that the analysis includes the u4 -nonlinearity, which is encountered in heat radiation problems.

A new finite element method/boundary element method (FEM/BEM) scheme is proposed for the solution of the 2D magnetic static and quasi-static problems with unbounded domains. The novelty is an original approach in the treatment of the outer region. The related domain integral is eliminated at the discrete level by using the finite element approximation of the fundamental solutions (Green’s functions) at every node of the related mesh. This “FEM-Green” approach replaces the standard boundary element method. It is simpler to implement because no integration on the boundary of the domain is required. Then, the method leads to a substantially reduced computational burden. Moreover, the coupling with finite elements is more natural since it is based on the same Galerkin approximation. Some examples with open boundary and nonlinear materials are presented and compared with the standard finite element method.
