Meshless Methods in Solid Mechanics

by James Lee, Youping Chen, Azim Eskandarian

Book Overview

Finite element method has been the dominant technique in computational mechanics in the past decades, but this method is not well suited to problems having severe mesh distortion. This book covers the fundamentals of continuum mechanics, the integral formulation methods of continuum problems, the basic concepts of finite element methods, and the methodologies, formulations, procedures, and applications of various meshless methods. It also provides...
