Abstract The NURBS based isogeometric analysis offers a novel integration between the CAD and the numerical structural analysis codes due to its superior capacity to describe accurately any complex geometry. Since it was proposed in 2005, the approach has attracted rapidly growing research interests and wide applications in the Finite Element context. Only recently, in 2012, it was successfully tested together with the Boundary Element Method. The combination of the isogeometric approach and the Boundary Element Method is efficient since both the NURBS geometrical representation and the Boundary Element Method deal with quantities entirely on the boundary of the problem.
