Description
Summary:Key Features:Includes non-standard topics such as the distinction between true- and quasi-inhomogeneities, the local equilibrium jump relations at discontinuities, and the material description of continuum mechanicsUtilizes numerical experiments to illustrate the strong interaction between the achievements in continuum mechanics and the development of numerical methods.
This book shows the advanced methods of numerical simulation of waves and fronts propagation in inhomogeneous solids and introduces related important ideas associated with the application of numerical methods for these problems. Great care has been taken throughout the book to seek a balance between the thermomechanical analysis and numerical techniques. It is suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in continuum mechanics and engineering. Necessary prerequisites for this text are basic continuum mechanics and thermodynamics. Some elementary knowledge of numerical methods for partial differential equations is also preferable.
