Beginning with formulations for elastostatic problems and subsequently extending to elastodynamics, he fundamentally advanced the fields of fracture mechanics, seismic analysis, and soil–structure interaction. This article, authored by former Ph.D. students from his Boundary Element community, aims to pay homage to the invaluable contributions Pepón made to the development of the Boundary Element Method. However, this paper also seeks to highlight his equally valuable efforts in other areas where he dedicated his time in parallel to his scientific career. These include university management roles, political positions, and entrepreneurial ventures. Undoubtedly, his widespread appreciation stemmed not only from his exceptional work ethic and prodigious mind but also from a character and personality that enabled him to cultivate friendships and earn the personal admiration and affection of all who had the privilege to work with him.}, publisher = {Elsevier}, keywords = {Boundary Element Method}, keywords = {Formation}, keywords = {José Domínguez}, title = {José Domínguez Abascal, Pepón: A personal review}, doi = {10.1016/j.enganabound.2025.106502}, author = {Solís, Mario and Galvín, Pedro and Maeso, Orlando and Gallego Sevilla, Rafael and Ariza, María Pilar and Sáez, Andrés and Medina, Fernando}, }
