Product Description: Up-to-date edition of Computational Geomechanics, broadening the focus of the first edition to include more applications This extended second edition of the highly successful book Computational Geomechanics with special reference to Earthquake Engineering by Zienkiewicz O...read more

Dealing with general problems in fluid mechanics, convection diffusion, compressible and incompressible laminar and turbulent flow, shallow water flows and waves, this is the leading text and reference for engineers working with fluid dynamics in fields including aerospace engineering, vehicle design, thermal engineering and many other engineering applications. The new edition is a complete fluids text and reference in its own right. Along with its companion volumes it forms part of the indispensable Finite Element Method series.New material in this edition includes sub-grid scale modelling; artificial compressibility; full new chapters on turbulent flows, free surface flows and porous medium flows; expanded shallow water flows plus long, medium and short waves; and advances in parallel computing.A complete, stand-alone reference on fluid mechanics applications of the FEM for mechanical, aeronautical, automotive, marine, chemical and civil engineers.Extensive new coverage of turbulent flow and free surface treatments

Product Description: Computational Geomechanics: * introduces the full theory of dynamic and static behaviour of porous media and shows how computation can predict the deformations of a structure, subject to an earthquake or consolidation. * introduces the use of numerical, finite element procedures for soil and rock mechanics problems which has increased rapidly throughout the last decade...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The area of Structural Computation is, and will be for some time to come, characterized by rapid development, notably because it will continue to make use of the considerable advances in computer hardware and software. Composite materials are also a contributory factor in this development, since they call into question much received wisdom based on homogeneous isotropic structures, and present new problems such as coupled delamination and buckling for example...read more

Product Description: This fourth edition has been divided into two volumes. Volume One, published in 1989, introduces the basic finite element approximation concepts and thereafter concentrates on simple linear static computations, which still provide the major part of the finite element usage...read more

Product Description: This is a foreign language book.
