This monograph describes the application of boundary element methods (BEM) in solid mechanics, beginning with basic theory and then explaining the numerical implementation of BEM in nonlinear stress analysis. In addition, the authors have developed state-of-the-art BEM source code, available for the first time on a CD-ROM included with the book.

Describes numerical implementation of boundary element methods for nonlinear analysis in solid mechanics. Booknews Gao (Arizona State University) and Davies (Glasgow University) present three-dimensional nonlinear code for boundary element analysis of solid continua. The book is divided into two parts on linear analysis and nonlinear analysis that review the theory of elasticity before translating the governing differential equations into integral equations and numerical methods. The elastic program code consists of 26 subroutines and the elasto-plastic program code of 17 subroutines. The CD-ROM contains Fortran source code BEMECH. Annotation c.
