Other methods such as orthogonal collocation and boundary element techniques have also been used. The relative advantages of using the various methods usually involve trade-offs among factors such as programming ease, accuracy of solution, storage capability of the computer, and availability of software. 

While Eqs. (1) to (5) may be difficult to solve analytically, various methods have been developed to solve the equations numerically. Perhaps the most practical methods are the finite element, finite difference, and boundary element techniques. With these techniques, the velocity (hydrodynamic) and potential fields, and the concentration gradients (mass transport), are readily calculated for complicated geometries using commercially available software. These techniques have been used extensively by Alkire and co-workers [15], and by others [16], to explore the hydrodynamic properties of pits and crevices. These studies will be discussed in some detail in Section 7.5. 

To model all experimental stages, thermal loading must be considered. FRACOD cannot directly simulate the effect of thermal loading and an alternative way to transfer thermal and initial stresses from other coupled numerical models has been sought. Here an inverse boundary element technique to reconstruct stress field and transfer it to FRACOD, is presented. 

Stress field inside a solid or rock structure with combined mechanical and thermal loadings has been successfully reconstructed by the inverse boundary element technique.

This section presents various examples and applications of three-dimensional simulation using finite element and boundary element techniques. These are presented to offer the reader an idea of what is possible with the current state-of-the-art of simulation programs. As examples, the authors have chosen cases that are of great interest to the academic, as well as, the industrial research community. These are internal batch mixers, extrusion dies and extrusion mixing sections.

Table 4.1 gives the design limit stresses for the pressure parts of the steel vessel and they are kept as BENCH MARK for checking linear. Non-linear and fracture/cracking analysis based on computerized numerical methods such as finite element and boundary elements techniques. Basically the stresses, as they occur in the vessel shells, are divided into three distinct categories primary, secondary and peak. 

E. They are unsolvable analytically but their solutions are possible only through the numerical (finite difference, element, or boundary element techniques). Therefore, rather powerful computers and reliable solution algorithms are necessary. Furthermore, in any numerical solution technique stability condition is necessary with a definite amount of error level acceptance.
