	The boundary element method extends the limits of analysis. \| Business (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The boundary element method of analysis is experiencing a resurgence almost a century after the mathematics behind it were first developed.
		Boundary element software is becoming popular in the analysis of complex 3-D solid components, where it is difficult for users to build FEM models even using p-type elements, said Jon Trevelyan, vice president of Computational Mechanics Inc. (Billerica, Mass.), makers of the Beasy BEM code.
		Boundary elements remove the need to mesh throughout the volume of the component.

	Quantic - Boundary Element Method
		Using this method, conductors and dielectric interfaces are divided into boundary elements over which the free and polarization charges and currents are computed.
		Finite difference and finite element methods result in fields in space (with artificial boundaries needed to truncate the regions) and numerical differentiation (with significant error introduced) needed to produce the surface charges.
		The boundary element methodologies, used by Quantic, are generally considered to be the most accurate available.

	Boundary Element Analysis: Theory & Programming
		in solid mechanics the superiority of the scaled boundary finite element method manifests itself overwhelmingly in two types of analyses: in the presence of singularities in statics and dynamics and for unbounded media satisfying rigorously the boundary (radiation) condition at infinity.
		The latter methods are extensions that permit the application of BME to anisotropic materials, as well as multi-field problems and fluid-structure interaction.
		The Boundary Element Method is used as an appropriate solution technique for these problems involving complex geometries, and often unbounded media.

		The Boundary Element Method in Acoustics serves as an introduction to the BEM and its application to acoustic problems and goes on to complete the development of computational models.
		Boundary element methods are developed for three important classes of acoustic or Helmholtz problems: modelling the acoustic field either interior or exterior to a closed surface or carrying out an acoustic modal analysis.
		A very general development of the methods is followed so that the widest range of engineering problems is covered.

	Fast Boundary Element Method for the Linear Poisson-Boltzmann Equation
		Unlike previous fast boundary element implementations, the present treatment accommodates finite salt concentrations thus enabling the study of biomolecular electrostatics under realistic physiological conditions.
		The particular formulation adopted in the boundary element treatment directly affects the numerical conditioning and thus convergence behavior of the method.
		Next, the multipole approximation and its use in the context of a fast boundary element method are described together with the iteration method employed to extract the surface distributions.

	Wiley::The Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method
		Of the boundary-element method that the spatial dimension is reduced by one as only the boundary is discretized with surface finite elements, reducing the data preparation and computational efforts, that the boundary conditions at infinity are satisfied exactly and that no approximation other than that of the surface finite elements on the boundary is introduced.
		In addition, the scaled boundary finite-element method presents appealing features of its own : an analytical solution inside the domain is achieved, permitting for instance accurate stress intensity factors to be determined directly and no spatial discretization of certain free and fixed boundaries and interfaces between different materials is required.
		In the directions parallel to the boundary, where the behaviour is, in general, smooth, the weighted-residual approximation of finite elements applies, leading to convergence in the finite-element sense.

	Wiley::The Boundary Element Method
		The boundary element method (BEM) is a modern numerical technique, which has enjoyed increasing popularity over the last two decades, and is now an established alternative to traditional computational methods of engineering analysis.
		The main advantage of the BEM is its unique ability to provide a complete solution in terms of boundary values only, with substantial savings in modelling effort.
		This two volume book set is designed to provide the readers with a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the boundary element method and its application to solving engineering problems.

	The Complex Variable Boundary Element Method (More) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The Complex Variable Boundary Element Method or CVBEM is a generalization of the Cauchy integral formula into a boundary integral equation method or BIEM.
		Another feature of the CVBEM is the integrations of the boundary integrals along each boundary element are solved exactly without the need for numerical integration.
		A sophistication of the relative error analysis is the generation of an approximative boundary upon which the CVBEM approximation function exactly solves the boundary conditions of the boundary value problem (of the Laplace equation), and the goodness of approximation is easily seen as a closeness-of-fit between the approximative and true problem boundaries.

		The first group to use the BEM to obtain systematic lens data was the Manchester group, in the early 1970s.

		BEM also uses an integral formulation of Maxwell's Equations, which allow for very highly accurate field calculations.
		Finite elements solve by breaking up a problem into small regions and solutions are found for each region taking into account only the regions that are right next to the one being solved.
		The BEM handles the open regions and linear solution while the FEM handles the non-linear areas.

	On the boundary element method for billiards with corners
		The boundary element method is one of the reliable numerical schemes to solve the eigenvalue problem of the Helmholtz equation, which is justified by the Fredholm theory for domains with a smooth boundary.
		When a domain has corners, however, the corresponding integral equation is singular, so that the boundary element method lacks its well-established base.
		Employing a cutoff technique, we here formulate a well-grounded version of the boundary element method, and also give a certain justification to the standard boundary element method even for domains with corners.

		The resulting semi-analytical solutions represent singularites and unbounded domains accurately and efficiently in contrast to the standard finite-element method.

		As in the Finite Element Method (FEM), the model is formed by subdividing the structure into smaller elements, but here only the boundaries are considered :
		The BEM advantage in comparison with the FEM is its ease of use : BE meshing is less complicated than FE meshing, and there is no need to mesh again the structure at each step of crack propagation, unlike FE meshing :
		Boundary Element : only adding one element at the crack tip to simulate the crack propagation !
