These traditional and modern computational approaches are holistically presented, providing insight into a range of non-linear structural analysis problems. The classical methods include geometric and material non-linearity, plasticity, damage and contact mechanics. The cutting-edge formulations include cohesive zone models, the Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM), multi-scale computational homogenization, localization of damage, neural networks and data-driven techniques. This presentation is simple but efficient, enabling the reader to understand, select and apply appropriate methods through programming code or commercial finite element software. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is suitable for undergraduate studies as a final year textbook and for MSc and PhD studies in structural, mechanical, aerospace engineering and material science, among others. Professionals in these fields will also be strongly benefited. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn accompanying website provides MATLAB codes for two-dimensional finite element problems with contact, multi-scale (FE2) and non-linear XFEM analysis, data-driven and machine learning simulations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45547163222254,"sku":"9781032257358","price":77.59,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/nonlinear-mechanics-for-composite-heterogeneous-structures-paperback-softback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
