BEM++ - Efficient solution of boundary integral equation problems

The BEM++ boundary element library is a software project that was started in 2010 at University College London to provide an open-source general purpose BEM library for a variety of application areas. In this talk we introduce the underlying design concepts of the library and discuss several applications, including high-frequency preconditioning for ultrasound applications, the solution of time-domain problems via convolution quadrature, light-scattering from ice crystals, and the solution of coupled FEM/BEM problems with FEniCS and BEM++.
