Multiscale Analysis of Deformation and Failure of Materials (PDF)

Presenting cutting-edge research and development within multiscale
modeling techniques and frameworks, Multiscale Analysis of
Deformation and Failure of Materials systematically describes the
background, principles and methods within this exciting new &
interdisciplinary field.



The author's approach emphasizes the principles and
methods of atomistic simulation and its transition to the nano and
sub-micron scale of a continuum, which is technically important for
nanotechnology and biotechnology. He also pays close attention to
multiscale analysis across the micro/meso/macroscopy of a
continuum, which has a broad scope of applications encompassing
different disciplines and practices, and is an essential extension
of mesomechanics.

Of equal interest to engineers, scientists, academics and
students, Multiscale Analysis of Deformation and Failure of
Materials is a multidisciplinary text relevant to those working in
the areas of materials science, solid and computational mechanics,
bioengineering and biomaterials, and aerospace, automotive, civil,
and environmental engineering.



* Provides a deep understanding of multiscale analysis and its
implementation

* Shows in detail how multiscale models can be developed from
practical problems and how to use the multiscale methods and
software to carry out simulations

* Discusses two interlinked categories of multiscale analysis;
analysis spanning from the atomistic to the micro-continuum scales,
and analysis across the micro/meso/macro scale of continuum.
