Download or read book Nonlinear Solid Mechanics for Finite Element Analysis written by Javier Bonet and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Designing engineering components that make optimal use of materials requires consideration of the nonlinear static and dynamic characteristics associated with both manufacturing and working environments. The modeling of these characteristics can only be done through numerical formulation and simulation, which requires an understanding of both the theoretical background and associated computer solution techniques. The first book in the series Nonlinear Solid Mechanics for Finite Element Analysis considered static behaviour whilst this second text extends the subject to dynamics. By presenting nonlinear solid mechanics, dynamic conservation laws and principles and the associated finite element techniques together, the authors provide in this second book, a unified treatment of the dynamic simulation of nonlinear solids. Alongside a number of worked examples and exercises are user instructions, program descriptions, and examples for two MATLAB computer implementations for which source codes are available online. The dynamic version of the statics book program FLagSHyP is based on a displacement formulation and an innovative dynamic program PG DYNA LAWS is presented for the solution of problems expressed directly in the form of a system of first order conservation laws. While this book is designed to complement postgraduate courses, it is also relevant to those in industry requiring an appreciation of the way their computer simulation programs work"--
