Opis

This entertaining introduction to advanced numerical modeling aims to lead the reader on a journey towards the ‘holy grail’ of numerical simulation, i.e. one without the requirement of mesh generation, that takes data directly from CAD programs. This hands-on book emphasizes implementation and examples of programming in a higher level lan

O autorze

Gernot Beer has been working in the area of numerical simulation since 1975 and has published 4 books on this topic. He has been involved in applying numerical simulation in numerous projects around the world, including the design of caverns for the CERN facility in Geneva and the investigation of a large underground power station in Iran. After working in a consulting office and for a large scientific and industrial research organisation he was appointed in 1993 as professor for structural analysis at the University of Technology Graz, Austria. Since 2012 he is emeritus professor of this institution.
