\(h\)-adaptive boundary element schemes. (English) Zbl 0821.65072

This paper introduces an \(h\)-adaptive algorithm for indirect 2-D Galerkin boundary elements applied to Dirichlet and Neumann problems. The algorithm is based on new “a posteriori” error estimates and is found particularly useful in presence of corner singularities typical of polygonal boundaries.
