Abstract

In this paper we introduce the Boundary Element Tearing and Interconnecting (BETI) methods as boundary element counterparts of the well-established Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting (FETI) methods. In some practical important applications such as far field computations, handling of singularities and moving parts etc., BETI methods have certainly some advantages over their finite element counterparts. This claim is especially true for the sparse versions of the BETI preconditioners resp. methods. Moreover, there is an unified framework for coupling, handling, and analyzing both methods. In particular, the FETI methods can benefit from preconditioning components constructed by boundary element techniques. The first numerical results confirm the efficiency and the robustness predicted by our analysis.
