“…The potential benefits of using IGA for the solution of boundary integral equations were already mentioned in the conclusions of [123], but it has only been considered first in [172]. The research on IGABEM has steadily grown since then, although not as fast as for IGAFEM, with applications in acoustics [189,76,61,198], elasticity [13,162], electromagnetics [197,188,77], lifting flow [63], potential flow [112,134,135], and solid mechanics [183,150], see also the recent book [17] for a comprehensive survey of the topic and a complete review of the existing literature. An implementation of (non-adaptive) IGABEM is available in the open-source library Bembel [75].…”
