The Finite Element Method (FEM) has proved to be an important technique in machine tool structural analysis. However, the preparation and computing time and cost required for an FEM analysis has constrained the wide application of the method. The Boundary Integral Equation (BIE) method eliminates some of the disadvantage and has consequently replaced the FEM in many fields.
