The authors give a unified treatment of nonlinear solid mechanics, dynamic
conservation laws, and the associated finite element techniques, alongside
exercises, examples, and working code, to provide a self-contained
introduction to the dynamic simulation of nonlinear solids suitable for
beginning masters and PhD students.
Enable students to achieve their best grade in AS/A-level English Literature
with this year-round course companion; designed to instil in-depth textual
understanding as students read, analyse and revise The Wife of Bath's Tale
throughout the course.
"Designing engineering components that make optimal use of materials requires consideration of the nonlinear characteristics associated with both the manufacturing and working environments. The modeling of these characteristics can only be done through numerical formulation and simulation, and this in turn requires an understanding of both the theoretical background and associated computer solution techniques. By presenting both the nonlinear continuum analysis and the associated finite element techniques under one roof, Bonet and Wood provide, in the new edition of this well-received and successful text, a complete, clear, and unified treatment of these important subjects." "This introduction to nonlinear continuum mechanics is suitable for courses aimed at postgraduate students. It can also be used by those in industry requiring an appreciation of the way in which then computer simulation programs work."--Jacket
