Description
The main purpose of this book is to present all the ingredients for constructing the numerical models for representing the complex nonlinear behavior of structures and their components, which are represented as deformable solid bodies. Nonetheless, the book will also prove useful for those mostly interested in linear problems of mechanics, since the sure way to obtain a sound theoretical formulation of a linear problem goes through the consistent linearization of the more general nonlinear problem.
