Item An efficient BE iterative-solver-based substructuring algorithm for 3D time-harmonic problems in elastodynamics.(2001) Araújo, Francisco Célio de; Martins, Cláudio José; Mansur, Webe JoãoThis work is concerned with the development of an efficient and general algorithm to solve frequency-domain problems modelled by the boundary element method based on a sub-region technique. A specific feature of the algorithm discussed here is that the global sparse matrix of the coupled system is implicitly considered, i.e. problem quantities are not condensed into interface variables. The proposed algorithm requires that only the block matrices with non-zero complex-valued coefficients be stored and manipulated during the analysis process. In addition, the efficiency of the technique presented is improved by using iterative solvers. The good performance of pre-conditioned iterative solvers for systems of equations having real-valued coefficients, well demonstrated in the literature, is confirmed for the present case where the system matrix coefficients are complex. The efficiency of the algorithm described here is verified by analysing a soil–machine foundation interaction problem. CPU time and accuracy are the parameters used for estimating the computational efficiency.Item BEM numeric simulation of spillway flows with discontinuous linear elements.(2002) Mello, Carlos Eduardo Ferraz de; Azevedo, José Paulo Soares deThe study of gravity free surface flows presents difficulties as the nonlinearity of the dynamic boundary condition in the free surface, and also the fact that the location of this surface is not known a priori. Traditionally, this phenomenon has been investigated by physical models, but the progress of computer science and numeric methods has been allowing more and more the successful use of mathematical models to simulate this type of flow. This work presents a boundary element method (BEM) numeric simulation of spillway flows with discontinuous linear elements. The solution procedure involves an iterative process in the determination of the free surface. The Newton-Raphson method is adopted together with the use of pseudo-nodes on the free surface and an empiric step factor (or damping factor) which controls the stability and the rate of convergence. An example of WES standard spillway shape is presented. The obtained results are compared with experimental data and they check the efficiency and good precision of the adopted method.
