Mastering Calculations in Linear and Nonlinear Mechanics


Add your own review!

Overview

Modeling and simulation are central to a mechanical engineer's activity. Increasingly complex models are being used routinely on a daily basis. This revolution is the result of the extraordinary progress in computer technology in terms of both hardware and software. This work deals with the control of the hypotheses leading from a mechanical model, usually coming from continuum mechanics, to a numerical model, i.e. the mastery of the mechanical computation process itself.  Particular attention is given to structural analysis which, in this context, is the most advanced domain. A significant part of this work is dedicated to the application of error estimators to the control of the various parameters involved in a calculation, beginning with the parameters related to the mesh.
