Abstract The main impediment to the development of efficient algorithms for the stress analysis of 3D generally anisotropic elastic solids using the boundary element method (BEM) and the local boundary integral equation (LBIE) meshless method over the years is the complexity of the fundamental solutions and the computational burden to evaluate them. The ability to analytically simplify and reduce them into as explicit a form as possible so that they can be directly computed will offer significant cost savings. In addition, they facilitate easy implementation using existing numerical algorithms with the above-mentioned methods that have been developed for isotropy. In this… More >
