## Abstract The present paper describes an unconditionally stable algorithm to integrate the equations of motion in time. The standard FEM displacement model is employed to perform space discretization, and the time‐marching process is carried out through an algorithm based on the Green's function

✦ Synopsis
This paper describes an original time-domain formulation to analyse saturated porous media. Standard finite element procedures are employed to numerically discretize the spatial domain of the model and a time-marching scheme based on the mechanical Green's function of the problem is considered. The Green's function matrices are implicitly and numerically evaluated, taking into account the Newmark method. The present methodology allows the system of equations of the solid and fluid phase to be treated separately, providing a more efficient and accurate solution procedure (smaller, simpler and better conditioned systems of equations are analysed). At the end of the paper, numerical examples are presented, illustrating the potentialities of the new approach.

This paper describes an efficient scheme for coupling the FE and the BE methods. The domain of the original problem is subdivided into two sub-domains, which are independently modelled by the FEM and the BEM. Both sub-domains are analyzed separately and the coupling is enforced at their interface. T
This work aims at presenting a novel hybrid method applied to the numerical solution of elastodynamic problems. The formulation is based on the so-called Explicit Green's Approach (ExGA), recently developed by Mansur et al. [Mansur, W.J., Loureiro, F.S., Soares Jr., D., Dors, C., 2007. Explicit time
