Computational methods in elasticity and plasticity: solids and porous media

'Computational Methods in Elasticity and Plasticity: Solids and Porous Media'presents the latest developments in the area of elasto-plastic finite elementmodeling of solids, particulates and pressure-dependent materials and structures. The book covers the following topics in depth: the mathematical foundations of solid mechanics, the finite element equations for solids and porous media, the theory of plasticity (as applied to constitutive modeling), as well as:Complete coverage of elasto-plastic modeling, presenting details of the finite element method, constitutive models, implementation and boundary value application results, an easy to use finite element software program used to generate the one-element and multi-element problems is available for download, discussion of recent advances in the analysis of porous materials and pressure-dependent materials in more detail than other books currently available. 'Computational Methods in Elasticity and Plasticity: Solids and Porous Media' also contains problem sets, exercises and a solutions manual for instructors.
