Advanced Theories for Deformation, Damage and Failure in Materials

Advanced Theories for Deformation, Damage and Failure in Materials

The book introduces advanced theories for deformation, damage, and failure in materials. The overall continuum mechanical framework was marked out and added by creep and damage mechanics of materials at elevated temperatures. The time-dependent and time-independent models of cyclic plasticity for low cycle and thermomechanical fatigue life assessment were specified in a very special manner: ins...

Efficient High-Order Discretizations for Computational Fluid Dynamics

Efficient High-Order Discretizations for Computational Fluid Dynamics

The book introduces modern high-order methods for computational fluid dynamics. As compared to low order finite volumes predominant in today's production codes, higher order discretizations significantly reduce dispersion errors, the main source of error in long-time simulations of flow at higher Reynolds numbers. A major goal of this book is to teach the basics of the discontinuous Galerki...
