Computational mechanics of discontinua / Antonio A Munjiza, Esteban Rougier, Earl E. Knight Chichester, West Sussex, U.K. : Wiley, 2012 xiv, 267 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. Wiley series in computational mechanics Includes bibliographical references and index "Mechanics of Discontinua is the first book to comprehensively tackle both the theory of this rapidly developing topic and the applications that span a broad field of scientific and engineering disciplines, from traditional engineering to physics of particulates, nano-technology and micro-flows. Authored by a leading researcher who has been at the cutting edge of discontinua simulation developments over the last 15 years, the book is organized into four parts: introductory knowledge, solvers, methods and applications. In the first chapter a short revision of Continuum Mechanics together with tensorial calculus is introduced. Also, a short introduction to the finite element method is given. The second part of the book introduces key aspects of the subject. These include a diverse field of applications, together with fundamental theoretical and algorithmic aspects common to all methods of Mechanics of Discontinua. The third part of the book proceeds with the most important computational and simulation methods including Discrete Element Methods, the Combined Finite-Discrete Element Method, Molecular Dynamics Methods, Fracture and Fragmentation solvers and Fluid Coupling. After these the reader is introduced to applications stretching from traditional engineering and industry (such as mining, oil industry, powders) to nanotechnology, medical and science"-- Provided by publisher "About the topic/technology Mechanics of Discontinua is a rapidly developing subject covering a broad range of engineering, scientific and industrial problems including mining, oil exploration, climate, nanotechnology, micromechanics, materials sciences, powders, blasts, impacts, demolitions, progressive collapse, blasting, milling, biomechanics, sediments, fluidized beds and many others"-- Provided by publisher Continuum mechanics Rougier, Esteban Knight, Earl E. 0 0 0 6 10000 10000 2019-09-04 409.89 0 QA808.2 .M86 2012 0000064526 2019-09-04 00:00:00 1 409.89 2019-09-04 OPEN VIRTUA40 60755 60761 VTLSSORT0080*0200*0400*0900*1000*2450*2600*3000*4900*5200*5201*5040*6500*7000*7001*9991
