Abstract
In this work the three-dimensional transient boundary element method (BEM) is studied to show its applicability when solving several problems in engineering. A general technique to combine the BEM with the finite element method (FEM) is presented, with particular emphasis on studying building structures interacting with their foundations. In order to improve the stability of the developed numerical algorithm, a modified time dependent fundamental solution was derived. The article also shows a numerical scheme to deal with time singular integrals over flat triangular and quadrangular elements.
