New Trends in Thin Structures: Formulation, Optimization and Coupled Problems

Know about the book -

New Trends in Thin Structures: Formulation, Optimization and Coupled Problems is written by Paolo de Mattos Pimenta and published by Springer. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3709102324 (ISBN 10) and 9783709102329 (ISBN 13).

The main focus of the book is to convey modern techniques applied within the range of computational mechanics of beams, plates and shells. The topics of interest are wide ranging and include computational aspects of nonlinear theories of shells and beams including dynamics, advanced discretization methods for thin shells and membranes, shear-deformable shell finite elements for SMA composite devices, optimization and design of shells and membranes, fluid-structure interaction with thin-walled structures, contact mechanics with application to thin structures and edge effects in laminated shells.
