Description for Introduction to Nonlinear Thermomechanics of Solids
Hardback. Opening with the mathematical background to describe the basic problem of continuum thermomechanics, this book then looks at developing governing equations for the problem. Finally, the issue of developing techniques for solving specific problems is addressed. Theoretical derivations are followed by prepared computational exercises and solutions. Series: Lecture Notes on Numerical Methods in Engineering and Sciences. Num Pages: 345 pages, 69 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHH; TGMB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 242 x 240 x 27. Weight in Grams: 692.
The first part of this textbook presents the mathematical background needed to precisely describe the basic problem of continuum thermomechanics. The book then concentrates on developing governing equations for the problem dealing in turn with the kinematics of material continuum, description of the state of stress, discussion of the fundamental conservation laws of underlying physics, formulation of initial-boundary value problems and presenting weak (variational) formulations. In the final part the crucial issue of developing techniques for solving specific problems of thermomechanics is addressed. To this aim the authors present a discretized formulation of the governing equations, discuss the fundamentals of ... Read more
