Overview
The Conference on Boundary Elements and Mesh Reduction Methods
(BEM/MRM) is recognised as the international forum for the latest
advances in these techniques and their applications in science and
engineering.
The continued success of the Conference since the first meeting held
in Southampton in 1978 is an indication of the strength of the research
being carried out by many different groups around the world.
The history of the Conference, now in its 38th annual meeting, traces
the evolution of these advanced methods since the first successful
development of boundary integral techniques into BEM took place to the
recent and most sophisticated Mesh Reduction Methods.
The objective of the research presented at these meetings is the
further development of technologies that reduce or eliminate the type of
meshes required by first generation computational methods such as
finite differences and finite elements. This aim is being achieved
firstly through the emergence of BEM as a method that eliminates the
need for an internal mesh and more recently through the development of a
series of advanced techniques for further mesh reduction approaches
culminating in meshless methods.
All the meetings since 1978 have produced a series of edited volumes
in which all major developments in the field have been presented. This
valuable collection has been available in digital form since 1993 when
the volumes began to be archived in the Wessex Institute’s eLibrary (http://library.witpress.com) where they can be easily accessed.
