  • Introduction To Practical Peridynamics: Computational Solid Mechanics Without Stress And Strain

    by Walter Herbert Gerstle ...
    Series Book 1 - Frontier Research In Computation And Mechanics Of Materials And Biology
    Parting with the classical continuum concepts of stress and strain in the computational simulation of solids, this book proposes a peridynamic model that applies the model directly to particle lattices. The model is directly solvable on a computer.Introduction to Practical Peridynamics is both a graduate-level textbook and a treatise. The text provides the necessary foundations to understand and ...

  • Worked Examples in Nonlinear Continuum Mechanics for Finite Element Analysis

    by Javier Bonet, Antonio J. Gil, Richard D. Wood ...
    Many processes in materials science and engineering, such as the load deformation behaviour of certain structures, exhibit nonlinear characteristics. The computer simulation of such processes therefore requires a deep understanding of both the theoretical aspects of nonlinearity and the associated computational techniques. This book provides a complete set of exercises and solutions in the field ... Read more
