Numerical Approximation Methods for Elliptic Boundary Value Problems: Finite and Boundary Elements

by Olaf Steinbach

Book Overview

This book presents a unified theory of the Finite Element Method and the Boundary Element Method for a numerical solution of second order elliptic boundary value problems. This includes the solvability, stability, and error analysis as well as efficient methods to solve the resulting linear systems. Applications are the potential equation, the system of linear elastostatics and the Stokes system. While there are textbooks on the finite element...
