Abstract

This chapter provides an introduction to the iso-geometric Boundary Element Method (BEM). The standard iso-geometric BEM is presented first and then isometric concepts are introduced. Both plane and 3-D problems are discussed and details of implementation given. The method is extended to non-homogeneous and non-linear problems. The main applications are in geotechnical engineering.
