Resolving Domain Integral Issues in Isogeometric Boundary Element Methods via Radial Integration: A Study of Thermoelastic Analysis

The paper applied the isogeometric boundary element method (IGABEM) to thermoelastic problems. The Non-Uniform Rational B-splines (NURBS) used to construct geometric models are employed to discretize the boundary integral formulation of the governing equation. Due to the existence of thermal stress, the domain integral term appears in the boundary integral equation. We resolve this problem by incorporating radial integration method into IGABEM...
