Title: Boundary Element Methods in Engineering
Description: The Boundary Element Method (BEM) has become established as an effective tool for the solution of problems in engineering science. The purpose of this Symposium has been to provide a forum for current research in BEM for linear and nonlinear problems in solid and fluid mechanics and related areas. The topics covered in this volume include rotary-wing aerodynamics, unsteady aerodynamics, design and optimization, elasticity, elasto-dynamics and elastoplasticity, fracture mechanics, acoustics, diffusion and wave motion, thermal anal- ysis, mathematical aspects and boundary/finite element coupled methods. A special session was devoted to par- allel/vector supercomputing with emphasis on massive parallelism.
