Although software can be used to model and analyze complex systems, the solution of an engineering problem and the accurate use of numerical results require some physical modeling and an understanding of the assumptions employed. This book provides the grounding in numerical methods necessary to avoid the blind acceptance of results.

This book provides the grounding in numerical methods necessary to avoid the blind acceptance of results.
Zusatztext
"The book includes detailed descriptions of trending materials modeling methods such as concurrent multiscale methods and molecular dynamics methods. The authors explain well how these methods can be used to model materials at very fine scales and improve predictions compared to conventional approaches. The description contains enough numerical implementation details to allow students, engineers and researchers interested in high fidelity materials modeling to try the methods presented in the book."-- Wing Kam Liu, Northwestern University, USA"This is a one-of-a-kind book and good for numerical methods to solve problems in mechanics of materials, from the nanoscale to the macroscale."-- Shaofan Li, University of California, Berkeley, USA"The book would be of greatest use for practicing engineers or graduate students in mechanical engineering, applied mechanics, applied physics, materials science, and related fields."--J. Lambropoulos, University of Rochester in Choice Connect
