Computational Solid Mechanics: Variational Formulation and High Order Approximation

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This classroom-tested text incorporates the variational formulation of mechanical models based on the principle of virtual work (PVW). All models are presented following the same sequence of steps, including kinematics, strain measurement, rigid body deformation, internal and external work, equilibrium, constitutive equations, and structural design. This presentation allows readers to establish a logical sequence for treating any mechanical problem. The author offers step-by-step explanations of the limitations and strengths of mechanical models and includes many real-world examples. MATLAB programs are supplied to run the examples.

Autorenporträt

Marco L. Bittencourt has a PhD in mechanical engineering at the University of Campinas in Brazil. He was a post-doc at the University of Kentucky and a visiting professor at the Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University. His main research area is computational mechanics with emphasis on non-linear structural mechanics, high-order finite elements, and high-performance computing applied to the design of engine components and more recently biomechanics.
