Computational Mechanics of Soilds and Structures

Computational mechanics has had a reflective impact on science and technology over the past three decades. It has transformed much of classical Newtonian theory into practical tools for prediction and understanding of complex systems. This book is intended to demonstrate a perspective of the major research areas in computational mechanics that will be the focus of inquiry during the next decade for industrial, governmental, university researchers, and those who would implement and apply the research results in computational mechanics.
