Abstract
An overview of the literature dealing with convergence of boundary
element formulations is presented, and an intuitive account of the
results is given. The convergence of an axisymmetric boundary
element formulation is studied using linear, quadratic or
superparametric elements. It is demonstrated how the rate of
convergence is reduced for calculations involving bodies with
edges, and two methods for improving the rate of convergence are
suggested and examined.
