Strongly singular integrals which are unbounded in the sense of Lebesgue appear naturally in boundary integral equations. Extending the analytic continuation method we derive finite part values for a class of singular integrals which arise frequently in practice. In connection with boundary integral

β¦ Synopsis
The paper deals with numerical integrations of singular integrals in BEMs. It is shown that from the point of view of numerical integrations, the only serious problem which can arise is due to weakly singular and nearly singular integrals. We pay attention to the study of numerical integrations of nearly singular integrals by using transformations of the integration variables. Theoretical considerations and numerical experiments are performed for the integrals occurring in 2-D BEM formulations. The use of optimal transformation is confronted with the optimization of a polynomial transformation.

In the Boundary Element Method (BEM) based on the direct formulation, body-force e ects manifest themselves as an additional volume integral term in the Boundary Integral Equation (BIE). The numerical solution of the integral equation with this term destroys the notion of the BEM as a truly boundary
In this paper a new technique is presented for transferring the domain integrals in the boundary integral equation method into equivalent boundary integrals. The technique has certain similarities to the dual reciprocity method (DRM) in the way radial basis functions are used to approximate the body
