Abstract
The stochastic boundary element method (cf. [1,2,4] is a numerical technique which is very suited to problems with uncertain geometry. For such problems the shape of an external boundary of a structure or the shape and position of internal defects are described by means of specified stochastic shape design parameters. The application of this approach to examining stresses, strains and displacements and in the general case an arbitrary functional with respect to stochastic shape of the boundary is presented.
