This book features new boundary element formulations for the solution of bending problems in plates and shells. These are based on modified Reissner plate and two-dimensional plane stress governing equations, which are coupled due to the curvature of the shell.
Dual boundary element formulations for the analysis of crack problems in plates and shells and a multi-region boundary element formulation for modeling assembled plate-structures are also included.
The solutions presented by the author compare favourably with existing analytical, numerical and experimental results.
Contents: Introduction; Basic Concepts; The Boundary Element Method; Hypersingular Integral Equations; The Dual Boundary Element Method; Crack Growth Simulation; A Multi-Domain BEM Formulation for Assembled Plate-Structures; Conclusions and Future Work; References; Appendices.
