About this Item

Fine. 406pp. RRP at time of listing £226.00. Illustrated within text. Published by the Wit Press, Southampton, 2009. First edition, first printing. 8vo; 9 1/4". WIT Transactions on Modelling and Simulation, Volume 49. This book contains papers from the thirty-first conference on the Boundary Element Method and other meshless techniques. The major motivation behind the Boundary Element Method (BEM) was to reduce the dependency of analysis on the definition of meshes. This has allowed the method to expand naturally into new techniques such as Dual Reciprocity. Mesh Reduction Methods (MRM) and BEM continue to be very active areas of research with many of the resulting techniques being successfully applied to solve increasingly complex problems. The topics of the thirty-first conference included: Advanced Meshless and Mesh Reduction Methods; Heat and Mass Transfer; Electrical Engineering and Electromagnetics; Fluid Flow; Advanced Formulations; Computational Techniques; Advanced Structural Applications; Dynamics and Vibrations; Damage Mechanics and Fracture; Material Characterisation; Financial Engineering Applications; Stochastic Modelling; Emerging Applications.

About this title

Synopsis

The Conference on Mesh Reduction Methods and Boundary Elements (MRM/BEM) is recognised as the international forum for the latest advances of these methods and their applications in sciences and engineering. Since the first conference took place in Southampton UK in 1978, the success of the meeting is an indication of the strength of the research being carried out by many different groups around the world. This continuous growth is a result of the evolution of the techniques from methods based on classical integral equations to techniques covering now a wide variety of mathematical approaches, the main objective of which is to reduce or eliminate the mesh. The mesh, a concept inherited from more primitive methods such as finite differences and finite elements, is alien to the solution of the problem and dictated only by the limitations of first-generation analysis techniques. This volume contains papers presented at the Thirty-first conference in the series, and topics include: Advanced Formulations; Advanced Meshless and Mesh Reduction Methods; Computational Methods; Advanced Structural Applications; Damage Mechanics and Fracture; Dynamics and Vibrations; Fluid Flow; Electrical Engineering and Electromagnetics.
