Computer Simulation of Dynamic Phenomena (Scientific Computation)

Computer Simulation of Dynamic Phenomena (Scientific Computation)

by Mark L . Wilkins (Author)

Synopsis

A description of computer programs for simulating phenomena in hydrodynamics, gas dynamics, and elastic plastic flow in one, two, and three dimensions. The text covers Maxwell's equations, and thermal and radiation diffusion, while the numerical procedures described permit the exact conservation of physical properties in the solutions of the fundamental laws of mechanics. The author also treats materials, including the use of simulation programs to predict material behavior.

Media Reviews
From the reviews
The focus on the numerical scheme by the author was particularly good. Text, equations and illustrations have been employed very well to explain the methods of producing the numerical code. The procedure to implement them practically is also well documented. (The Physicist, 2000)

(....) the book offers a unique and interesting blend of numerical fluid and solid mechanics. As such, it should serve well as a reference for a graduate course on computational mechanics. (Applied Mechanics Reviews, 1999)
