The coupling of the FEM and the BEM for the solution of elastoplacticity and contact problems
This thesis introduces a method for the coupling of the elastic Boundary Element Method (BEM) and the elastoplastic Finite Element Method (FEM) and the extension of this method to contact problems by using gap finite elements. A method for the coupling of BEM subregions and FEM subregions is derived...
