In this work, heat transfer problems that have Radiation boundary condition are addressed with a unique BEM procedure. To address this, adaptive shape functions are defined on the nodes in contrast to the standard BEM procedure. The shape function are expandable to solve the complex mathematical problems that arise in the solution of the equations. The solution developed using the adaptive node shape functions are compared with that of the conventional node basis shape function. The shape functions yield comparable results with conventional node basis shape function by reducing the computational time. Results are plotted for several mesh sizes and the convergence study is also made. Effort is made to improve the accuracy of the solution. Finally, important conclusions are drawn and future scope is defined.

Numerical simulation of electromagnetic radiation using high-order discontinu...IJECEIAES
In this paper, we propose the simulation of 2-dimensional electromagnetic wave radiation using high-order discontinuous Galerkin time domain method to solve Maxwell's equations. The domains are discretized into unstructured straight-sided triangle elements that allow enhanced flexibility when dealing with complex geometries. The electric and magnetic fields are expanded into a high-order polynomial spectral approximation over each triangle element. The field conservation between the elements is enforced using central difference flux calculation at element interfaces. Perfectly matched layer (PML) boundary condition is used to absorb the waves that leave the domain. The comparison of numerical calculations is performed by the graphical displays and numerical data of radiation phenomenon and presented particularly with the results of the FDTD method. Finally, our simulations show that the proposed method can handle simulation of electromagnetic radiation with complex geometries easily.

VCN: Vehicular Cloud Network Using RBMR Protocol for Efficient Link Stability...IJLT EMAS
VCN is Vehicular Cloud Network which is the combination of VANET and cloud. Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) technology has been used in many of the applications such as avoiding traffic jam on roadways and airways, preventing the vehicles from accidents and so on. It serve as one of the best platform to meet with group-oriented services which comes under one of the primary application classes. Multicast routing is used to support such services. In such cases one must have to ensure better packet delivery ratio, lower delays and reduced control overheads. Thus, there is a need to design stable and reliable multicast routing protocols for VANETs. In this paper, we proposed a Receiver Based Multicast Routing Protocol that finds a best way to perform the multicast traffic. RBMulticast stores destination list inside the packet header, this destination list provides information on all multicast members to which this packet is targeted .And it stores the traced information or data in the cloud for given period of time. Thus, the multicast tree is not required for this process and therefore no tree state stored at the intermediate nodes.

accomplished by substituting each point in a given dataset with a Gaussian. The width of the Gaussian is a
σ value, a hyper-parameter which can be manually defined and manipulated to suit the application.
Numerical methods are used to find all the minima of the quantum potential as they correspond to cluster
centers. Herein, we investigate the mathematical task of expressing and finding all the roots of the
exponential polynomial corresponding to the minima of a two-dimensional quantum potential. This is an
outstanding task because normally such expressions are impossible to solve analytically. However, we
prove that if the points are all included in a square region of size σ, there is only one minimum. This bound
is not only useful in the number of solutions to look for, by numerical means, it allows to to propose a new
numerical approach “per block”. This technique decreases the number of particles by approximating some
groups of particles to weighted particles. These findings are not only useful to the quantum clustering
problem but also for the exponential polynomials encountered in quantum chemistry, Solid-state Physics
and other applications.
IRJET- Stress – Strain Field Analysis of Mild Steel Component using Finite El...IRJET Journal
This document analyzes the stress-strain field of a mild steel component under uniaxial loading using the finite element method. The component is modeled in MATLAB and Autodesk Fusion 360 using three elements and four nodes. Results are obtained for tensile forces of 1000N, 3000N, and 9000N. The displacement, stress, and strain values calculated in MATLAB are approximately similar to analytical solutions. Fusion 360 provides the maximum and minimum values within the component. The analysis demonstrates that finite element modeling can accurately determine stress-strain behavior under different loads.
The document describes a self-study course on finite element methods for structural analysis developed by Dr. Naveen Rastogi. The course is intended as a 3-credit, semester-long course for senior undergraduate and graduate engineering students. It covers foundational concepts of finite element analysis including shape functions, element stiffness matrices, and static/dynamic/thermal analysis of structures. Practice problems are provided to help students gain a better understanding of the subject matter.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a numerical method for solving complex engineering problems. The document discusses conducting FEA on a fixed-free cantilever beam to study the effect of mesh density on solution accuracy. Analytical solutions are derived and used to validate FEA results. A beam model is created in ABAQUS with varying element sizes. As element count increases, FEA results converge towards analytical solutions, though with increased computation time. An element count of 4125 provided an optimal balance between accuracy and cost.
This document discusses using isogeometric analysis to analyze nonlinear vibrations of structures. Isogeometric analysis uses the same functions (B-splines and NURBS) to describe geometry and represent numerical solutions as in finite element analysis. The paper applies isogeometric analysis to the nonlinear vibrations of an Euler-Bernoulli beam model using the harmonic balance method. Numerical results show that isogeometric analysis with higher-order B-splines provides higher accuracy than traditional finite element methods for nonlinear vibration analysis.
Dynamic Structural Optimization with Frequency ConstraintsIJMER
This document summarizes a research paper on dynamic structural optimization with frequency constraints. It discusses using finite element modeling and an evolution optimization technique to optimize a structure's natural frequencies. The technique calculates sensitivity parameters to determine how removing individual elements affects natural frequencies. It can increase or decrease frequencies, or change the gap between frequencies. Examples optimize a cantilever plate model to increase the first frequency, decrease the first frequency, and increase the gap between the first two frequencies. The technique provides an easy way to control dynamic characteristics and obtain new optimized topology designs using common finite element software.
This document describes a regularized version of the simplex method for solving linear programming problems. It discusses interpreting the simplex method as a cutting-plane method for approximating a convex objective function when solving a special class of problems known as ball-fitting problems. A ball-fitting problem involves finding the largest ball that fits within a given polyhedron. The document proposes regularizing the simplex method by applying regularization in the dual space during the pricing mechanism. It presents Algorithm 2 as a regularized simplex method for solving ball-fitting problems and interpreting the results as approximating a convex objective function. Computational test results comparing the basic simplex method to the regularized version are also mentioned.

Vertical electrical soundings (VES) was carried out in Opolo and Tombia all in Yenagoa local government area, Bayelsa state, Nigeria to understand the resistivity distribution of its subsurface which serves as a tool in investigating subsurface lithology. All VES sounding were stacked together to generate 1D pseudo tomogram and was subsequently interpreted. The interpreted VES curve results shows that Opolo consists of three layers within the depth of investigation. Sandy clay with mixture of silt make up the first layer (Top layer) with resistance value ranging from 24-63Ωm. The second layer is made up of thick clay with very low resistivity values ranging from 3-19Ωm. The third layer is sandyclay with its resistance value ranging from 26-727Ωm.Tombia also reveals that the area is in three layers within the depth of investigation. Sandy clay with a mixture of fine sand made up the first layer (Top soil) with its resistance values ranging from 40-1194Ωm. The second layer is made up of fine sand with resistivity value ranging from 475-5285Ωm. The third layer is made up of sandy clay/sand with its resistance value ranging from 24-28943Ωm.The results of the 1D pseudo tomogram also reveals that Tombia and Opolo consists of three layers within the depth of investigation and pseudo tomograms serves as a basis tool for interpreting lithology and identifying lithological boundaries for the subsurface
Public Health Implications of Locally Femented Milk (Nono) and Antibiotic Sus...IJLT EMAS
The study is to determine the PH and moisture content
of Nono sold in Port Harcourt , the prevalence of Pseudomonas
aeruginosa in Fura da nono and finally the antibiotic resistance
pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from the fermented
products. nono samples were purchased from Borikiri in
portharcourt township. A total of 20 samples were assessed to
determine their microbiological quality and to conduct antibiotic
susceptibility test. Moisture content and pH of the samples were
also assessed. Enumeration of the total viable bacterial count
(TVBC), Total coliform count (TCC) and Total Pseudomonal
count (TPC) were also assessed to determine the sanitary quality
of the product. The PH ranges between 2.99 to 3.89 while the
moisture content ranges between 80% to 88%. The result
obtained from the microbial culture indicated that a wide array
of microorganism were present in Fura da nono including species
of Bacilu, klebsiella, Pseudomonas Staphylococcus aureus,
Streptococcus, Lactobacillus and Escherichia coli.. The highest
TVBC, TCC and TPC were 9.8x103
cfu/ml, 10x103
cfu/ml and
9.7x103
cfu/ml respectively. Antibiotic susceptibility was
conducted using 12 broad spectrum antibiotics and compared
against a standard provided by the Clinical laboratory standard
institute (CLSI). Gentamycin, Ofloxacin and Levofloxacin
recorded 100% resistance , while Cotrimoxazole, Ciprofloxacin,
Vancomycin, Nitrofurantoin, Norfloxacin and Azithromycin
recorded 100% susceptibility as indicated by the complete clear
zone of inhibition.It was discovered that the absence of
regulatory agencies like National Agency for Food Drug
Administration and Control (NAFDAC) in the regulation of the
quality of the product was the cause of the high contamination,
since there were no quality control measures in its production
line .It was recommended that NAFDAC should provide a
standard operating procedure for local food producers and
should include them in their scope for regulation.

Design and Analysis of Disc Brake for Low Brake SquealIJLT EMAS
Vibration induced due to friction in disc brake is a
theme of major interest and related to the automotive industry.
Squeal noise generated during braking action is an indication of
a complicated dynamic problem which automobile industries
have faced for decades. For the current study, disc brake of 150
cc is considered. Vibration and sound level for different speed
are measured. Finite element and experimentation for modal
analysis of different element of disc brake and assembly are
carried out. In order to check that precision of the finite element
with those of experimentation, two stages are used both
component level and assembly level. Mesh sensitivity of the disc
brake component is considered. FE updating is utilized to reduce
the relative errors between the two measurements by tuning the
material. Different viscoelastic materials are selected and
constrained layer damping is designed. Constrained layer
damping applied on the back side of friction pads and compared
vibration and sound level of disc brake assembly without
constrained layer damping with disc brake assembly having
constrained layer. It was observed that there were reduction in
vibration and sound level. Nitrile rubber is most effective
material for constrained layer damping.

Abstract: In this work, heat transfer problems that have
Radiation boundary condition are addressed with a unique BEM
procedure. To address this, adaptive shape functions are defined
on the nodes in contrast to the standard BEM procedure. The
shape function are expandable to solve the complex mathematical
problems that arise in the solution of the equations. The solution
developed using the adaptive node shape functions are compared
with that of the conventional node basis shape function. The
shape functions yield comparable results with conventional node
basis shape function by reducing the computational time. Results
are plotted for several mesh sizes and the convergence study is
also made. Effort is made to improve the accuracy of the solution.
Finally, important conclusions are drawn and future scope is
defined.

I INTRODUCTION
he Boundary Element Method [BEM] or the Boundary
Integral Equations [BIE] are popularly used to solve the
exterior or open region problems due to their capability of
encompassing the radiation boundary condition into Green’s
function. The problem with the exterior problem is, in order to
impose the radiation boundary condition on the boundary of
the problem domain, the space surrounding the object need to
be discretized as large as possible. The solution time becomes
enormously high as the number of discretization elements
increases. Therefore it becomes difficult to solve such
problems as the quantity of the elements grows.
Problems can be solved using BEM by discretizing only the
surface of the object instead of discretizing the whole space
around the object. For the surface of the object, boundary
conditions such as constant temperature boundary conditions,
heat flux boundary conditions etc. can be applied and the
radiation boundary conditions is not required, as the problem
formulation itself takes care of it in the form of the Green’s
function.
Selection of shape function play a critical role in obtaining the
accurate solution. In the BEM or BIE procedure, the shape
functions are referred as basis functions. One has flexibility to
define the basis functions on any of the geometrical entities.
Several geometric entities are formed when a surface of an
object is discretized into triangles. These entities are triangular
patches or faces, edges and nodes. The triangular patch
modeling for a closed surface results in certain number of
geometric entities. If Ne is the number of edges created on the
closed surface of the object, then it will have the number of
faces equal to 2Ne/3 and number of nodes equal to (Ne/3) +2.
That means,
Nf = 2Ne/3 and (1)
Nn = (Ne/3) + 2 (2)
The BEM solution offers flexibility so that one can define the
basis function on any of the geometric entity type. Edge, face
and node type’s basis functions are the basis functions defined
on edge, face and node respectively. After solving the integral
equations numerically, the resulting matrices are in the sizes of
Nn × Nn, Nf × Nf , and Ne × Ne respectively for the node type,
face type and edge type basis functions. For example, an object
of surface discretized into 6000 edges, then it results in 4000
faces and 2002 nodes. That means matrices are 6000 × 6000
for edge type, 4000 × 4000 for face type and 2002 × 2002 for
node type basis functions. Therefore computational complexity
of solving edge type and face type basis function is very high
as compared to solving it using node type basis function.
In this research an attempt has been made to solve the thermal
problem with another set of basis functions that is an extension
of node type basis functions by Raghu Kumar at al. [1]. These
new basis functions are called adaptive basis functions. These
functions are not used in the solution of the thermal problems;
but are widely used in electromagnetic and acoustic scattering
problems. Adaptive basis function was first introduced by
Chandrasekhar [3,4] and S.M Rao at al. [5,6] In this work, an
attempt has been made to extend the adaptive node basis
functions to solve the radiation boundary condition thermal
problems.
II BEM PROCEDURE
The resulting matrix obtained after numerical solution of
integral equations, has to be solved by any linear equation
solvers when node type basis functions are used.
If the resulting linear equation is

Then X can be found by
X = Z-1

Where iterative methods are used to obtain the inverse of the
matrix [Z]
If the Nn is the size of the matrix [Z], then the complexity in
solving the matrix [Z] is in the order of , which is big as
compared to the size of the matrix. The BEM solution results
in a full matrix instead of a sparse matrix or diagonal matrix.
In this article, attempt is made to generate the diagonal matrix
of matrix [Z] by defining the basis functions on the nodes. But
each of these basis functions are not defined on each node in
isolation, but each basis function is defined on a set of nodes
so that the resulting values in the matrix [Z] are always
diagonal; and off diagonal elements are either zero or near
zero.
By defining the basis functions spanning over several nodes
and by assigning appropriate weights, the total effect on any
other node can be reduced to zero. Thus producing a null field.
This type of basis function is known as adaptive basis function.
III DEVELOPMENT OF ADAPTIVE BASIS FUNCTIONS
Consider a cluster of nodes and let adaptive basis function to
be defined on main node ni. Six nodes are surrounding the
main node and have their own node type basis functions.
Boundary type of adaptive basis function is indicated in red
color in Fig 1. Let there are N basis functions in the cluster and
each node type basis function associated with weight is
designated as Nnn ,......,3,2,1, .
Let there are Nn nodes on the surface of the object that resulted
from triangular patch modeling, and when choosing the
number of basis functions in the cluster, there is no limit on the
quantity, but it should be less than that of total number of node
basis functions on the surface. Null field is produced when
whole adaptive basis function is tested on any node outside the
cluster. It is not necessary that all the nodes chosen for testing
need to be chosen from outside the cluster. The testing node
should not be the main node and it can be even well within the
cluster.
The number of testing nodes to be chosen either equal to or
greater than the number of nodes in the cluster in order to find
the weights in the cluster. If the number of nodes in the cluster
is equal to number of testing nodes, it results in exact solution
for weights. It the number of testing nodes is greater than
cluster nodes, it results in an over determined system of linear
equations and one gets appropriate values for the weights that
satisfies all the linear equations.
Figure 1: Adaptive Basis Function on a Node
Weights can be evaluated using the below procedure:
Let main node is surrounded by N number of nodes in the
cluster, then total N+1 number of nodes are there in the cluster.
Let there be N weights associated to each of the surrounding
nodes designated by Nnn ,....,3,2,1, which are to be
determined. Number of testing points to be at least N, since
there are N number of weights to be determined. Let N=6, then
nodes are designated as 21123 ,,,, iiiiii nandnnnnn .
The designations given above are arbitrary. When tested on the
number of nodes Nn, it results in the following set of linear
equations.

The Eq. 8 need to be solved to get the values of the weights.
The elements of [B] and {b} can be computed using the
normal node type basis functions. The equation is an over
determined system of linear equations and least square
technique can be used to calculate the weights vector {Ʌ}
After calculating the weights λi,n, the ith
basis function can be
constructed as

It is possible to produce null field on every node except at ith
node by using Fi as the adaptive node basis function. Hence,
except the diagonal term, it produces whole ith
column of [Z]-
matrix as zero, or near zero. For each node, considering it as a
main node, the adaptive basis function need to be constructed,
i.e. Fi, i = 1, 2,….Nn has to be constructed and to calculate
matrix [Z], the corresponding elements of matrix [Z] should be
determined. After turning all the elements that are less than
threshold value to zero, the resulting Matrix [Z] is a diagonal
matrix. Since the matrix [Z] is a diagonal matrix the [Z]-1
can
be easily calculated.
The solution may or may not be accurate enough, once the
solution {X} is obtained from [Z]-1
× {Y}. The obtained
solution may not be accurate if the number of nodes in the
cluster is small. This is due to the reason that the off diagonal
elements in the [Z] may be higher than the threshold value and
hence may be a true diagonal matrix. Higher the number of
nodes in the cluster, lower the value of the off diagonal
elements in the matrix [Z]. When the number of nodes in the
cluster is small, there are two ways to get an accurate solution
in those cases. They are:
I. Increase the number of nodes in the cluster, but this
increases the computational time. It can be considered
as a good number if the number of nodes in the cluster
are higher than ~ 12% of total nodes on the surface of
the object.
II. To produce accurate and a faster solution, use the
solution obtained from the small number of nodes in
the cluster as an initial guess to solve the independent
node type basis function linear equation [Z]{X} = {Y}.
Features of Adaptive Node type basis functions:
The significant features of the adaptive node type basis
functions are:
1. The [Z] matrix is only diagonal and elements are
stored diagonally and hence the whole matrix need
not be stored.
2. The computational time required to solve the ZX = Y
is totally eliminated.
3. Only the N number of coefficients need to be
stored for each node.
4. The nodes for the cluster need not be adjacent to the
main node.
5. All the nodes for the cluster need not be physically
present inside a boundary of the adaptive basis
function.
6. The obtained solution may not be accurate incase
number of nodes in the cluster is less than 12 %; but
this can be used to solve the independent node type
basis function solution as an initial guess. Still
additionally [Z] matrix of the independent node type
basis function solution need to be stored, but it is still
worth storing additional data when benefit in the
computational time is considered.
7. The time required to fill the [Z] matrix is an order less
than that required to invert it. The operations required
to fill a matrix for an object having Nn is Nn
2
and to
invert, it requires Nn
3
. With the usage of the adaptive
node type basis functions, the number of operations
required to invert the [Z] matrix is totally eliminated
and hence Nn
3
is saved. Therefore the solution is faster
than the independent node type basis function.
8. If the solution of the [Z] matrix that is based on the
adaptive node type basis function is used as an initial

guess to solve the independent node type basis
function, one may have to additionally solve the
linear system of equations few times, which is still
worth doing when compared with the benefit one gets
since the inversion of [Z] matrix is totally eliminated.
IV NUMERICAL RESULTS
In this section, numerical results are presented for four cases of
the spheres. The sphere of radius is modeled with 4 sizes of the
mesh using triangular patch modeling. The temperature
distributions are computed using the BEM solution with node
basis functions and node based adaptive basis functions. Four
different temperatures are specified on the surface of the
sphere for four different cases.

basis functions in the cluster and Number of iterations for each model to

Table 1 shows the different models used in this work for
testing the solution. The models vary from just 92 nodes to 382
nodes on the surface. Since the basis functions are defined on
the nodes, the sizes of the matrices are 92×92, 134×134,
212×212 and 382×382 respectively for the cases of sp10×10,
sp12×12, sp15×15 and sp20×20. These are the sizes of the
matrices that will result if the basis functions are defined only
on one node. In this article, adaptive basis functions results are
compared with results of single node basis functions.
Table 1 shows the number of basis functions defined in the
cluster in various simulations. The number of basis functions
have to be chosen to be the nearest odd number that is close to
4%, 8%, 12%, 16% and 20% of the total number of nodes in
the surface. These simulations are run in order to assess the
improvement in the solution when the number of basis
functions are increased in the cluster.
The solution obtained using certain number of basis functions
may or may not be accurate enough and will definitely have
some deviation from the solution obtained using the single
node basis functions. Hence this deviation needs to be bridged.
The accuracy of the solution can be improved either by
increasing the number of basis functions in the cluster or by
using the solution obtained from the adaptive basis functions
as the seed solution to the iterative solution of the single node
basis function solution.
The number of iterations used to get faster and accurate
solution is shown in Table 1. Higher the number of basis
functions in the cluster, lower the number of iterations required
to get the accurate solutions. Conversely, lower the number of
basis functions used in the definition of the adaptive basis
function, higher the deviation it will have from the accurate
solution, and hence higher the number of iterations are
required to improve the accuracy.
Fig 2 shows the distribution of temperature for a model
sp10×10 up to distance of 10m from the surface of the sphere.
It can be seen from the plot as the number of basis functions
increase, the solution also improves its accuracy.
In Fig 2, single node basis functions are compared with
adaptive basis functions results. 5basis_20itr model indicates,
5 basis functions are chosen into cluster to define the adaptive
basis functions and 20 iterations are used to solve the single
node basis function solution with the adaptive basis function
solution. Similarly, other models also indicate the number of
basis functions in the cluster and the number of iterations used.
By observing the graph, 11 basis functions and 12 iterations
are the optimum combination of basis function iterations for
sp10×10 model in the prediction of temperature on the surface
of the sphere. The optimum combination at a distance of 1m
and 2m is 19 basis functions with just 4 iterations.
Figure 2: Temperature distributions at different distances from the surface of
the sphere (model sp10×10)
In Fig 3, the error in the prediction of temperatures by adaptive
basis functions with respect to single node basis functions are
plotted. The results are plotted for a model of sp10×10. When
a temperature of 500 °C is specified on the surface of the
sphere, it can be seen from the Fig 6.3 that when 11 basis
functions are used in the cluster, the error is very less for the
temperature prediction on the surface of the sphere. The error
is low at a distance of 1m and 2m from the surface of the
sphere, when the 19 basis functions are used in the cluster.

Figure 3: Distribution of error in temperature predictions at different distances
from the surface of the sphere (model sp10×10)
Fig 4 shows the distribution of temperature for a model
sp12×12 up to distance of 10m from the surface of the sphere.
By observing the Fig 4, the model with 5 basis functions and 4
iterations are the optimum combination of basis function-
iterations that are predicted at temperature of 486 °C on the
surface of the sphere for the sp12×12 model. The optimum
combination at distances of 1m and 2m are 27 basis functions
with 4 iterations and 17 basis functions with 12 iterations
respectively.
Figure 4 shows temperature distribution for a temperature,
defined on the surface of the sphere when the sphere is
approximated with triangular mesh with model sp12×12, up to
a distance of 10m from the surface of the sphere. There is good
agreement of the prediction of temperatures using the adaptive
basis functions when compared with the single node solution.
There is slight drop in the temperature by 2.4 °C on the surface
of the temperature when 5 basis functions are used in the
cluster. At a distance of 1m from the surface of the sphere, the
drop is 3.7 °C, but the drop decreases thereafter.
In Fig. 5, the errors are plotted for the temperature predictions
by adaptive basis functions with respect to the results obtained
using single node basis functions. Again, the results are shown
for a model of sp12×12 for a temperature definition of 500 °C
on the surface of the sphere. It can be observed from the Fig. 5
that on the surface of the sphere, the maximum error is
produced by 21 basis functions model, and 27 basis functions
model the next highest. The lowest error is produced by 5 basis
functions model and 17 basis functions model. At a distance of
1m from the surface of the sphere, the 5 basis functions model
and 17 basis functions model produces highest error. As the
distance from the surface increases, the error falls to less than
1 °C.

Fig 6 shows the distribution of temperature for a model
sp15×15 up to distance of 10m from the surface of the sphere.
In Fig 6, it is observed that at a distance of 1m and 2m from
the surface of the sphere, the optimum model that produced the
closest result with respect to the single node basis function
solution is 25basis_12itr. On the surface of the sphere and at a
distance of 3m from the surface of the sphere, model
35basis_8itr has given best results.
Fig 7 shows the error in the prediction of temperature at a
distance up to 10m from the surface of the sphere for sp15×15
model. The model 25basis_12itr has performed best at 1m and
2m from the surface of the sphere and 35basis_8itr performed
best at 0m and 3m from the surface. Overall, the 25basis_12itr
and 35basis_8itr has performed well at many locations than the
other models.

47basis_12itr basis functions model and has performed well at
many locations than the other models.

V. CONCLUSION
In this work, Adaptive basis function is defined on the standard
BEM solution procedure in contrast to using the regular basis
functions used in FEM/BEM procedures. The advantages of
following such procedure are explained. With the adaptive
basis function, only few iterations are required to solve the
problem and hence it is much faster than solving a full matrix.
It is proven that the results predicted by the adaptive basis
functions match well with that of the single node basis
functions. In this article, effort is made to improve the
accuracy of the solution by increasing number of nodes in the
cluster. Different combinations are analyzed by changing the
number of nodes and iterations. Result will be accurate if the
number of nodes in the cluster are higher than 12 % of total
number of nodes on the surface of the object.
