Boundary Elements, 20th - International Conference Proceedings (Hardcover, illustrated edition)

Features the papers presented at the Twentieth World Conference on the Boundary Element Method. A joint meeting of the largely theoretical BEM (Boundary Element Method) series and the more practically oriented BETECH (Boundary Element Technology) series, the Conference blended both of these aspects together to push back the frontiers of BEM still further. Topics covered include fracture mechanics and fatigue, inelastic problems, contact mechanics, electromagnetics, fluid dynamics and aerodynamics, acoustics, corrosion, elastodynamics and thermal problems. Recent advances in general computational techniques of BEM, development of fundamental solutions and the application of inverse problems are also reviewed.
