An introductory approach to the subject of large strains and
large displacements in finite elements.
Large Strain Finite Element Method: A Practical Course,
takes an introductory approach to the subject of large strains and
large displacements in finite elements and starts from the basic
concepts of finite strain deformability, including finite rotations
and finite displacements. The necessary elements of vector analysis
and tensorial calculus on the lines of modern understanding of the
concept of tensor will also be introduced.
This book explains how tensors and vectors can be described
using matrices and also introduces different stress and strain
tensors. Building on these, step by step finite element techniques
for both hyper and hypo-elastic approach will be considered.
Material models including isotropic, unisotropic, plastic and
viscoplastic materials will be independently discussed to
facilitate clarity and ease of learning. Elements of transient
dynamics will also be covered and key explicit and iterative
solvers including the direct numerical integration, relaxation
techniques and conjugate gradient method will also be explored.
This book contains a large number of easy to follow
illustrations, examples and source code details that facilitate
both reading and understanding.
Takes an introductory approach to the subject of large strains
and large displacements in finite elements. No prior knowledge of
the subject is required.
Discusses computational methods and algorithms to tackle large
strains and teaches the basic knowledge required to be able to
critically gauge the results of computational models.
Contains a large number of easy to follow illustrations,
examples and source code details.
Accompanied by a website hosting code examples.
