Overview

The recent dramatic increase in computational power available for mathematical modeling and simulation promotes the significant role of modern numerical methods in the analysis of heterogeneous microstructures. This monograph presents a comprehensive introduction to computational micromechanics, including basic homogenization theory, microstructural optimization and multifield analysis of heterogeneous materials. An Introduction to Computational Micromechanics is valuable for researchers, engineers and for use in a first year graduate course for students in the applied sciences, mechanics and mathematics with an interest in the computational micromechanical analysis of new materials.

Reviews

From the reviews of the first edition: <p> This book is devoted to state-of-the-art mathematical modeling and simulation of heterogeneous microstructures. a ] this book could be very useful to post-graduate students studying numerical methods and also to creators of FEM-based approaches. (I. A. Parinov, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1085, 2006)
