Abstract: | Abstact Applications of boundary element methods (BEM) to the solution of static field problems in electrical engineering are considered
in this paper. The choice of a suitable BEM formulation for electrostatics, steady current flow fields or magnetostatics is
discussed from user's point of view. The dense BEM matrix is compressed with an enhanced fast multipole method (FMM) which
combines well-known BEM techniques with the FMM approach. An adaptive grouping scheme for problem oriented meshes is presented
along with a discussion on the influence of the mesh to the efficiency of the FMM. The computational costs of the FMM algorithm
are analyzed for typical problems in practice. Finally, some electrostatic and magnetostatic numerical examples demonstrate
the simple usability and the efficiency of the FMM.
