About the Book

Collates papers presented at two international conferences dealing with boundary element technology, and with computational methods and testing for engineering integrity. The text includes contributions by industrial users, boundary element researchers and research code developers. Topic covered include: radial basis functions; approximation theory; wavelets; high performance computing; symbolic computation; numerical aspects; and industrial applications.
