Abstract

The edge function asymptotic boundary discretization method, which generates a partition of the boundary into a finite set of boundary elements, and its application to three-dimensional problems of linear isotropic elasticity are presented. The present solution representation, which is global, is constructed from asymptotic solutions of the Navier equations of elasticity. The unknown parameters are then determined by imposing the boundary conditions separately over each of the boundary elements. A numerical example is included and the results are discussed.
