Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

PARTITION OF UNITY METHODS Master the latest tool in computational mechanics with this brand-new resource from distinguished leaders in the field

While it is the number one tool for computer aided design and engineering, the finite element method (FEM) has difficulties with discontinuities, singularities, and moving boundaries. Partition of unity methods addresses these challenges and is now increasingly implemented in commercially available software. Partition of Unity Methods delivers a detailed overview of its fundamentals, in particular the extended finite element method for applications in solving moving boundary problems. The distinguished academics and authors introduce the XFEM as a natural extension of the traditional finite element method (FEM), through straightforward one-dimensional examples which form the basis for the subsequent introduction of higher dimensional problems. This book allows readers to fully understand and utilize XFEM just as it becomes ever more crucial to industry practice.

Partition of Unity Methods explores all essential topics on this key new technology, including:

Coverage of the difficulties faced by the finite element method and the impetus behind the development of XFEM The basics of the finite element method, with discussions of finite element formulation of linear elasticity and the calculation of the force vector An introduction to the fundamentals of enrichment A revisitation of the partition of unity enrichment A description of the geometry of enrichment features, with discussions of level sets for stationary interfaces Application of XFEM to bio-film, gradient theories, and three dimensional crack propagation

Perfect for researchers and postdoctoral candidates working in the field of computational mechanics, Partition of Unity Methods also has a place in the libraries of senior undergraduate and graduate students working in the field. Finite element and CFD analysts and developers in private industry will also greatly benefit from this book.

Stéphane P. A. Bordas is a Professor in Computational Mechanics and earned his PhD from Northwestern University, USA, in 2004. He has published over 200 papers in unfitted simulation of free boundary problems and data driven modelling of complex systems. He has supervised over 30 PhD students and is Editor- in-Chief of Advances in Applied Mechanics. Alexander Menk is employed by Bosch GmbH. He is a PhD graduate from Glasgow University, UK, supervised by Prof. Bordas. His contributions range from automatic numerically determined enrichment to preconditioners for extended finite element methods for fracture. Sundararajan Natarajan has been a Professor of Computational Mechanics since 2014 and earned his PhD from Cardiff University, UK, supervised by Prof. Bordas and Prof. Kerfriden. He has made strong contributions to a number of methods on unfitted methods for free boundary problems, in particular on numerical integration and strain smoothing.
