The paper examines the effectiveness of the symmetric boundary element formulation when the continuum body is subdivided into large elements called macro-elements. The approach proposed combines a strong reduction of variables with an elastic solution close to the real response. Indeed, if the displ

In this boundary-element method based on ยฎnite elements only the boundary is discretized with surface ยฎnite elements yielding a reduction of the spatial dimension by one. No fundamental solution is necessary and thus no singular integrals must be evaluated and general anisotropic material can be ana
This paper describes some integral formulations and implementations of a Boundary Element Method to solve two-and three-dimensional finite deformation problems of rubber-like materials. The integral equations are formulated in terms of unknown incremental displacement and total boundary traction fie
*The Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method* describes a fundamental solution-less boundary element method, based on finite elements. As such, it combines the advantages of the boundary element method: * spatial discretisation reduced by one* boundary condition at infinity satisfied exactly with th
