Boundary element methods in solid mechanics
on board the liner the Queen Elizabeth II From Southampton to New York. Leave Southampton July 3rd. Arrive New York July 8th .1984 All correspondence should be addressed to:
! The Boundary Element Method has become an accepted and powerful numerical method for the solution of many engineering problems. The main advantages of the technique which is a combination of classical integral equations and finite elements are its generality with respect to geometry, the simplicity of the input data required, and its numerical accuracy. The boundary element method is ideallv suited to many 2 and 3-D problems and those with infinite domains for which finite elements, although popular are inefficient.
Past conferences have been held in Southampton (1978, 1980 and 1982), California (1981) and in Japan (1983). The conference will take place on the QE II as it sails from Southampton to N e w York. The Queen Elizabeth I1 provides an ideal environment for an international meeting and one that is equally convenient for USA and European researchers. The QE II has excellent conference facilities and offers an environment propitious to the interchange of ideas and close contact between participants.
This conference, as the previous ones, is a means to exchange ideas on recent advances in boundary element Papers are invited on the topics techniques. outlined aboveand other topics within Special Objective of this conference the general scope of the conference. is to bring practicing and industrial Abstracts of no more than 300 words users of BEM into contact with should be submitted to the Conference researchers workingon the latest Director. developments. Abstracts should cleartv state the purpose, results and conclusions of the work to be described in the final paper. Authors will be notified of the preliminary acceptance.
