Boundary element methods for variational inequalities. (English) Zbl 1291.65193

Numer. Math. 126, No. 1, 173-197 (2014).
The author is interested in the numerical analysis of the Galerkin boundary element approximation of first kind variational inequalities to find \[ u\in K:=\{v\in\widetilde H^{1/2}(\Gamma): v\leq g\text{ on }\Gamma\}\text{ such that }\langle Au,v- u\rangle_1\geq \langle f,v-u\rangle_1\text{ for all }v\in K. \] A numerical example is presented.
