Abstract This paper presents a three-dimensional (3-D) boundary element method (BEM) scheme based on the Radial Integration Method (RIM) for wave propagation analysis of continuously non-homogeneous problems. The Kelvin fundamental solutions are adopted to derive the boundary-domain integral equation (BDIE). The RIM proposed by Gao (Engineering Analysis with Boundary Elements 2002; 26(10):905-916) is implemented to treat the domain integrals in the BDIE so that only boundary discretization is required. After boundary discretization, a set of second-order ordinary differential equations with respect to time variable are derived, which are solved using the Wilson-q method. Main advantages of More >
