In this paper the boundary element method is applied to solve transient non-linear free surface flow problems formulated from potential theory. For the temporal evolution a high-order time-stepping procedure based on a truncated forward-time Taylor series expansion is compared with the classical Run

โฆ Synopsis
A class of non-linear elliptic problems in inรฟnite domains is considered, with non-linearities extending to inรฟnity. Examples include steady-state heat radiation from an inรฟnite plate, and the de ection of an inรฟnite membrane on a non-linear elastic foundation. Also, this class of problems may serve as a starting point for treating non-linear wave problems. The Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) Finite Element Method, which was originally developed for linear problems in inรฟnite domains, is extended here to solve these non-linear problems. Several DtN schemes are proposed, with a trade-o between accuracy and computational e ort. Numerical experiments which demonstrate the performance of these schemes are presented. ?

Systems of non-linear equations as they arise when analysing various physical phenomena and technological processes by the implicit Finite Element Method (FEM) are commonly solved by the Newton-Raphson method. The modelling of sheet metal forming processes is one example of highly non-linear problem
In the present contribution, an innovative stabilization technique for two-dimensional low-order รฟnite elements is presented. The new approach results in an element formulation that is much simpler than the recently proposed enhanced strain element formulation, yet which gives results of at least th
We develop formulations for รฟnite element computation of exterior acoustics problems. A prominent feature of the formulations is the lack of integration over the unbounded domain, simplifying the task of discretization and potentially leading to numerous additional beneรฟts. These formulations provid
