Capture Nonlinear Finite Elements For Continua And Structures Formulated By Belytschko Physical Book


Capture Nonlinear Finite Elements For Continua And Structures Formulated By Belytschko Physical Book
This is a description of the major methodologies of nonlinear finite element analysis for solid mechanics, The authors offer an integrated treatment so that the reader can gain an understanding of the fundamental methods, a feeling for the comparative usefulness of different approaches and an appreciation of the difficulties which lurk in the nonlinear world.
There is indepth treatment of Lagrangian, Eularian and arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian methods of continua, of most of the material laws used in today's software and research, and a thorough description of solution methodologies, with an emphasis on basic concepts such as stability, smoothness, and regularisation.
Coupled and multiphysics problems, such as thermomechanical analysis and fluidstructure interaction are also treated, .
