Riassunto

The Inclusion-Based Boundary Element Method (iBEM) is an innovative numerical method for the study of the multi-physical and mechanical behaviour of composite materials, linear elasticity, potential flow or Stokes fluid dynamics. It combines the basic ideas of Eshelby’s Equivalent Inclusion Method (EIM) in classic micromechanics and the Boundary Element Method (BEM) in computational mechanics.

The book starts by explaining the application and extension of the EIM from elastic problems to the Stokes fluid, and potential flow problems for a multiphase material system in the infinite domain. It also shows how switching the Green’s function for infinite domain solutions to semi-infinite domain solutions allows this method to solve semi-infinite domain problems. A thorough examination of particle-particle interaction and particle-boundary interaction exposes the limitation of the classic micromechanics based on Eshelby’s solution for one particle embedded in the infinite domain, and demonstrates the necessity to consider the particle interactions and boundary effects for a composite containing a fairly high volume fraction of the dispersed materials.

Starting by covering the fundamentals required to understand the method and going on to describe everything needed to apply it to a variety of practical contexts, this book is the ideal guide to this innovative numerical method for students, researchers, and engineers.

Dr. Gan Song obtained his Ph.D. in the Department of Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at Columbia University. His research interest focuses on numerical simulation of the mechanical behaviour of civil engineering materials. He develops this innovative numerical method – iBEM under the advice of Professor Yin, which is a powerful tool to characterize mechanical property of composite material containing various sizes, shapes and types of particles within affordable computational cost. The method is able to be extended to analyse fluid mechanics, potential flow, and other multi-physical problems as well.
