Description

In this paper, we show how Mathematica capabilities can be successfully applied in order to obtain the numerical solution of some integral equations. To this aim, we introduce two new Mathematica packages for solving problems arising from the engineering field, by using the Boundary Elements Method (BEM). The performance of this technique is illustrated by means of some examples, for both the cases of constant and linear elements.
