A boundary element procedure for transient wave propagations in two- dimensional isotropic elastic media. (English) Zbl 0584.73105

An integral formulation of the elastodynamic equations is presented and discretized to develope a numerical solution procedure. Constant space and linear time dependent interpolation functions are implemented. The expressions obtained, the boundary element equations can be solved using a time-stepping scheme. An example is given for comparison with known solutions.
