โฆ Synopsis
We use the symmetric formulation of boundary integral equations to solve mixed boundary value problems based on a Galerkin discretization. This leads to a skew-symmetric and positive definite system of linear equations, which may be solved via iterative schemes, Toeplitz type preconditioners are used to bound the spectral condition number of the discrete system. Numerical examples confirm the theoretical results.

The boundary element method (BEM) for linear elasticity in its curent usage is based on the boundary integral equation for displacements. The stress field in the interior of the body is computed by differentiating the displacement field at the source point in the BEM formulation, via the strain fiel
In this paper a novel preconditioning strategy is presented that is designed to improve the convergence rates of the Generalized Minimal Residual (GMRES) method when applied to dense linear systems of boundary element equations of the form Hz ----c. The GMRES method is applied to the preconditioned
a c t We investigate the stable numerical reconstruction of an unknown portion of the boundary of a twodimensional domain occupied by an isotropic linear elastic material from a prescribed boundary condition on this part of the boundary and additional displacement and traction measurements (i.e. Cau
