Abstract

For non-homogeneous or nonlinear problems, a major difficulty in applying the Boundary Element Method (BEM) is the presence of volume integrals in the boundary integral formulation. In this paper, we describe a novel approach for evaluating these volume integrals without volume discretization of the problem domain. Based on this approach, an accelerated BEM solver for Poisson equations using only surface discretization has been developed. Case studies have been performed and results have been compared with analytical solutions.
