| Overview: Boundary element software is becoming popular in the analysis of complex 3-D solid components, where it is difficult for users to build FEM models even using p-type elements. Detailed features of solid models or models with large volumes can require a large number of tetrahedral finite elements, which can become cumbersome. Boundary elements remove the need to mesh throughout the volume of the component. Boundary element codes can carry out most linear analysis on complex geometry with great accuracy. The method requires more algebra, but the models are much easier to build because they contain far fewer elements than do finite element models. During the 1980s, Dr. Banerjee's (founder) efforts to make the mathematics useful attracted several million dollars in funding from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, as well as from U.S. and European automotive and aerospace companies. The efforts have resulted in several public-domain BEM codes released over the last decade, including the Boundary Element Software Technology (BEST 3D, BEST CMS, BEST FSI, etc.) codes. In 1990, NASA publicly distributed the research software Banerjee had developed through Cosmic, the technology transfer arm of the Department of Commerce. While other boundary element software packages exist, the codes on which Banerjee's software is based are still the only ones available to the public. The GPBEST (General Purpose Boundary Element Software Technology) software stemmed from the above... | |
