Abstract
This paper investigates the elastodynamic analysis of axisymmetric bodies under axisymmetric dynamic loads using the modified radial integration boundary elements method (MRIBEM). Purposely, the governing integral equations have been developed in cylindrical coordinates by employing the three-dimensional (3D) static fundamental solution. The axisymmetric bodies can be modeled as a two-dimensional (2D) problem, which is much simpler than 3D analysis and only requires a one-dimensional boundary mesh. In the proposed formulation, the effects of inertial and damping forces appear as 2D domain integrals. The domain variables are approximated using global radial basis functions (RBFs), and the modified radial integration method (MRIM) is employed to deal with the domain integral as the main idea of the present research. Various sample problems are provided in order to illustrate the capability of the presented method for analyzing axisymmetric bodies with concave geometry and damping effect under different types of transient loads. The Newmark and Houbolt methods were applied for time marching, and their efficiency was examined. The results of the present study were also validated by the axisymmetric FEM formulation and other available references.
