This book presents the fundamental principles of mechanics to re-establish the equations of Discrete Mechanics. It introduces physics and thermodynamics associated to the physical modeling. The development and the complementarity of sciences lead to review today the old concepts…
A general theory of elastic stability
by Thompson, J. M. T., Hunt, G. W.
fromWiley-Interscience publication
"The development of realistic mathematical models that govern the response of systems or processes is strongly connected to the ability to translate them into meaningful discrete models that allow for a systematic evaluation of various parameters of the systems and processes. Th…
This book presents the theory and computer implementation of the finite element method as applied to nonlinear problems of heat transfer and similar field problems, fluid mechanics (flows of incompressible fluids), and solid mechanics (elasticity, beams and plates). Both geometr…
The second edition of An Introduction to Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis has the same objective as the first edition, namely, to facilitate an easy and thorough understanding of the details that are involved in the theoretical formulation, finite element model development, and…
