Abstract

This paper presents a novel dynamic modeling of structures in infinite domains. The dual reciprocity method (DRM) using compact supported radial basis functions (CS RBF) is used. Four different functions are considered. The present formulation is general, as it proved validity for modeling any type of structures including structures in infinite domains. An example of deep tunnel is analyzed to demonstrate the validity of the present formulation.
