Abstract: A mathematical formulation for the solution of inverse problems pertaining to the identification of flaw shapes and the reconstruction of boundary conditions in a continua is described. Integral ...

Abstract: In this paper an exterior domain decomposition (DD) method based on the boundary element (BE) formulation for the solutions of two or three-dimensional time-harmonic scattering problems in acoustic ...

Abstract: This paper presents a mathematical stochastic methodology for transit route network optimization. The goal is to provide an effective computational tool for the optimization of a large-scale transit route network to minimize ...

Abstract: A methodology for optimizing transit networks based on both passenger and operator costs is presented. Given information on transit demand, street network, and a set of feasibility constraints of a transit service area, ...

Abstract: An energy-based symmetric coupled finite element and boundary integral method valid for all frequencies has been developed recently by the authors (Zeng et al., 1990; Bielak et al., 1991), for ...
