Description
Summary:--------------------------------------------------------- This book presents recent research on damage mechanics with finite elements. Particular emphasis is laid on programming the finite element method to incorporate applications of da- mage mechanics. This textbook for graduates and researchers in civil, mechanical, aerospace engineering and materials science deals with the practical applications of damage mechanics, which have not appeared before in the literature. The book contains research on the separation of voids and cracks in continuum damage mechanics. An educational version of a finite element program for damage mechanics is included on a CD-ROM.
