Fast large-scale boundary element algorithms

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

Boundary element methods (BEM) reduce a partial differential equation in a domain to an integral equation on the domain's boundary. They are particularly attractive for solving problems on unbounded domains, but handling the dense matrices corresponding to the integral operators requires efficient algorithms. This article describes two approaches that allow us to solve boundary element equations on surface meshes consisting of several millions of triangles while preserving the optimal convergence rates of the Galerkin discretization.
