An adaptive meshing based on the r-method is developed for two-dimensional unsteady non-linear flows with a free surface. Coupling of a boundary element equation and a weighted residual formulation of the pressure equation on the free surface is employed in solving the wave problems. A mesh optimiza

Abstract
Analysis of creeping flow problems using the boundaryβelement method is now well established. The method is based on the transformation of the governing partial differential equations into a boundary integral equation for the velocity at arbitrary field points in terms of the surface velocities and tractions. Associated with the velocity boundary integral equation is a pressure boundary integral equation. The singularities contained in the kernel functions for the pressure boundary integral equation are an order higher than for the velocity boundary integral equation. Hence, for field points along the boundary of the domain, the pressure boundary integral equation is hypersingular, causing difficulties in evaluating the surface pressure. A method of regularization for the pressure boundary integral equation in which the hypersingular integral is converted into a Cauchy principal value integral is discussed. Some example applications are presented.

An analysis of some nonconforming approximations of the Stokes problem is presented. The approximations are based on a strain-pressure variational formulation. In particular, a convergence and stability result for a method recently proposed by Bathe and Pantuso is provided.
## Abstract We introduce a new numerical method to model the fluidβstructure interaction between a microcapsule and an external flow. An explicit finite element method is used to model the large deformation of the capsule wall, which is treated as a bidimensional hyperelastic membrane. It is couple
This paper uses examples with exact solutions to demonstrate that boundary Bows with 8-node finite elements are more cost effectively calculated by extrapolation from the Barlow points than by direct sampling at the boundary. The boundary flows are used to calculate the mass balance, and the use of
The emergence of non-linear dynamics in cavity mixing is examined using the boundary element method (BEM). The method is implemented for the simulation of three-dimensional transient creeping flow of Newtonian or linear viscoelastic fluids of the Jeffreys type. A boundary only formulation in the tim
Finite element solutions of the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations are presented, using a simple dissipation model. The discretization is based on the weak-Galerkin weighted residual method and equal interpolation functions for all the unknowns are permitted. The nonlinearity is iterated upon using a
