Abstract

AbstractA technique is described for the solution of the wave equation with time dependent boundary conditions. The finite element solution accompanied by the numerical Laplace inversion process seems to be an efficient procedure to treat such problems. The programming involved is straightforward in the sense that numerical Laplace inversion routines can be directly used as a time integration procedure after obtaining standard finite element differential equation solutions in the transformed domain.Some results are presented for one‐ and two‐ dimensional applications, such as wave propagation in longitudinal bars and wave propagation in harbours.
