An alternative formulation of the Helmholtz integral equation derived to express the pressure field explicitly in terms of the velocity vector of a radiating surface is used to solve acoustic radiation and fluid/structure interaction problems. This formulation, derived for arbitrary sources, is similar in form to the Rayleigh's formula for planar sources. Because the surface pressure field is expressed explicitly as a surface integral of the surface velocity, which can be implemented numerically using standard Gaussian quadratures, there is no need to use BEM to solve a set of simultaneous equations for the surface pressure at the discretized nodes. Furthermore the non-uniqueness problem inherent in methods based on Helmholtz integral equation is avoided. Validation of this formulation is demonstrated for some simple geometries.

This paper is about a progressive fracture analysis of concrete by boundary element method. From both displacement boundary integral equation and traction boundary integral equation of solids with cracks, a boundary integral equation for crack problem is derived. For the analysis of progressive fracture of concrete, fracture process zone is modelled based on Dugdale-Barenblatt model with linear tension-softening curve. By using the boundary element modeling, the progressive fractures of concrete beam and compact-tension specimens with various loading conditions are analyzed and compared with experiments. The analysis results show that the technique in this paper can predict the maximum strength and the nonlinear behavior of concrete including post-peak behavior.

탄소성파괴역학의 발달과 함께 원자력 발전소의 설계시 고려해야 하는 고에너지 배관의 양단파단사고와 같은 극한 가정 대신 파단전누설(LBB : Leak Before Break)개념을 배관설계시 고려할 수 있도록 관련 규제 요건이 완화되어 원자력 발전소 고에너지 계통 설계에 새로운 설계 개념으로 적용할 수 있게 되었다. 파단전누설개념 적용시 균열 안정성 평가에 가장 널리 사용되는 방법은 J-T 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소법 사용시 균열 선단에서 요소의 크기 및 경계 조건 (Boundary Condition)이 변화할 때 Applied J 적분값에 미치는 영향을 ABAQUS 전산 프로그램을 이용하여 조사하였다.

Errors included in solutions obtained by the boundary element method are generally larger than those by the finite element method in the case that the number of discreted elements is small. One of the reasons is supposed to be attributed to the error which will be produced in the numerical integration of the singular functions in two dimensional elastic problem. Then, treatment of analytical integration to reduce computing time and to decrease errors of boundary element method are proposed.

본 논문에서는 외부방사 문제에 널리 사용되는 음향경계 요소 법(Acoustic Boundary Element Method)을 확장하여 저주파수 대역은 기존의 방법을 이용하고 고주파수 대역에서는 경계요소의 특성길이에 의한 고주파수 상한을 극복할 수 있는 방법을 제시한다. 밴드를 대표하는 음압 레벨을 직접 계산하도록 상호상관도 가정을 통하여 간략화 하였다. 간단한 음향방사 모델인 배플이 있는 빔과 평판에 대하여 Rayleigh 적분식의 계산결과와 제안된 방법을 비교하여 적용효능성을 검토하였다. 적용을 위한 조건으로는 방사면 진동의 상호상관도가 작아야 하므로, 이를 만족시키기 위한 일반적인 조건식을 제시하여 이로부터 경계요소의 특성길이를 정하는 기준을 제시하였다.

Under the assumption of potential flow, free-surface flow around a hydrofoil is calculated by the high-order spectra1!boundary-integral method, This method is one of the most efficient numerical methods by which the nonlinear interactions between hydrofoil and free-surface can be simulated in time-domain. In this method. the wave potential which represents the nonlinear evolution of free-surface is solved by the high-order spectral method and the body potential which provides the effects of hydrofoil and shed vortex is solved by the boundary-integral method. The calculated free-surface profiles which are generated by a uniformly translating hydrofoil are compared with other experimental results. And they show relatively good agreements each other. As another example, free-surface flow generated by a heaving and translating hydrofoil is calculated and discussed.

In this paper, the harbor tranquility problem is analysed by an improved boundary integral equation method. The effect of the diffracted wave transformation induced by the breakwater and structures located at a harbor mouth is considered. Partial reflection concept is also used to consider energy dissipation effects. The present model is verified by comparing the results of the model for rectangular and semi-circular harbors with the analytic solutions. they show a reasonable agreement. Also the wave height distribution of the HUPO harbor computed using the present model agree well to those from the previous hydraulic model tests. It also shows a good agreement with the results from the time-dependent mild slope equation model.

The BEM for linear elastic stress analysis is applied to the highly rotating axisymmetric body problem which also involves the thermoelastic effects due to steady-state thermal conduction. The axisymmetric BEM formulation is briefly summarized and an alternative approach for transforming the volume integrals associated with such body force kernels into equivalent boundary integrals is described in a way of using the concept of inner product and vector identity. A discretization scheme for higher order BE is outlined for numerical treatment of the resulting boundary integral equations, and it is consequently illustrated by determining the stress distributions of the turbine rotor disk of the small turbojet engine(ADD 500) for which a FEM stress solution has been furnished by author.

In this paper, the transient electromagneti wave scattering at dielectric cylinder is studied by new numerical analysis method. Basic formulation of boundary integral equation (BIE) for numerical method is started weighted residual technique. BIE is made to two simultaneous equation at surface inner and outside point of dielectric cylinder in extended boundary condition (EBC) and surface boundary condition (SBC). Numerical method is used Boundary element method (BEM) that is two form, one is direct method and the other is indirect method, so that this method that transformes operator inversion martics is used numerical analysis. A good agreement of this numerical solution and the other results is obtained.

A recently developed numerical method based on a mixed volume and boundary integral equation method is applied to calculate the accurate stress intensity factors at the crack tips in unbounded isotropic solids in the presence of multiple anisotropic inclusions and cracks subject to external loads. Firstly, it should be noted that this newly developed numerical method does not require the Green's function for anisotropic inclusions to solve this class of problems since only Green's function for the unbounded isotropic matrix is involved in their formulation for the analysis. Secondly, this method takes full advantage of the capabilities developed in FEM and BIEM. In this paper, a detailed analysis of the stress intensity factors are carried out for an unbounded isotropic matrix containing an orthotropic cylindrical inclusion and a crack. The accuracy and effectiveness of the new method are examined through comparison with results obtained from analytical method and volume integral equation method. It is demonstrated that this new method is very accurate and effective for solving plane elastostatic problems in unbounded solids containing anisotropic inclusions and cracks.
