A boundary element formulation for the solution of multiple moving boundary problems is presented and tested herein. A heat transfer problem involving heating of solid, melting of solid, and partial vaporisation of liquid is considered. Numerical results show that the boundary element method is more

β¦ Synopsis
Phase change problems are of practical importance and can be found in a wide range of engineering applications. In the present paper, two proposed numerical algorithms are developed; the first one is general for phase change problems, while the second one is for ablation problems. The boundary elements method is used as a mathematical tool in conjunction with the proposed algorithms. Two test examples were solved and the results agree with the physics of the problems.

Both the logarithmic and derivative kernel integrations for potential problems, solved with quadratic isoparametric boundary elements, contain quartic functions of the integration parameter. It is shown that such functions can be written as the product of two quadratic functions with real coefficien
The boundary element formulation for the static analysis of two-dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional (3-D) solids and structures characterized by a gradient elastic material behavior developed in the first part of this work, is treated numerically in this second part for the creation of a highly
