Starting from a recently developed energetic space-time weak formulation of boundary integral equations related to wave propagation problems defined on single and multidomains, a coupling algorithm is presented, which allows a flexible use of finite and boundary element methods as local discretization techniques, in order to efficiently treat unbounded multilayered media. Partial differential equations associated to boundary integral equations will be weakly reformulated by the energetic approach and a particular emphasis will be given to theoretical and experimental analysis of the stability of the proposed method.

Abstract Time-dependent problems modeled by hyperbolic partial differential equations can be reformulated in terms of boundary integral equations and solved via the boundary element method. In this context, the analysis of damping phenomena that occur in many physics and engineering problems is a novelty. Starting from a recently developed energetic space-time weak formulation for 1D damped wave propagation problems rewritten in terms of boundary integral equations, we develop here an extension of the so-called energetic boundary element method for the 2D case. Several numerical benchmarks, whose numerical results confirm accuracy and stability of the proposed technique, already proved for the numerical treatment of undamped wave propagation problems in several dimensions and for the 1D damped case, are illustrated and discussed.

Problems of wave propagation in poroelastic bodies and media are considered. The behavior of the poroelastic medium is described by Biot theory for partially saturated material. Mathematical model is written in term of five basic functions – elastic skeleton displacements, pore water pressure and pore air pressure. Boundary element method (BEM) is used with step method of numerical inversion of Laplace transform to obtain the solution. Research is based on direct boundary integral equation of three-dimensional isotropic linear theory of poroelasticity. Green’s matrices and, based on it, boundary integral equations are written for basic differential equations in partial derivatives. Discrete analogue are obtained by applying the collocation method to a regularized boundary integral equation. To approximate the boundary consider its decomposition to a set of quadrangular and triangular 8-node biquadratic elements, where triangular elements are treated as singular quadrangular. Every element is mapped to a reference one. Interpolation nodes for boundary unknowns are a subset of geometrical boundary-element grid nodes. Local approximation follows the Goldshteyn’s generalized displacement-stress matched model: generalized boundary displacements are approximated by bilinear elements whereas generalized tractions are approximated by constant. Integrals in discretized boundary integral equations are calculated using Gaussian quadrature in combination with singularity decreasing and eliminating algorithms.

Abstract Starting from a recently developed energetic space-time weak formulation of the Boundary Integral Equations related to scalar wave propagation problems, in this paper we focus for the first time on the 2D elastodynamic extension of the above wave propagation analysis. In particular, we consider elastodynamic scattering problems by open arcs, with vanishing initial and Dirichlet boundary conditions and we assess the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method, on the basis of numerical results obtained for benchmark problems having available analytical solution.
