Advances in Predictive Models and Methodologies for Numerically Efficient Linear and Nonlinear Analysis of Composites

This book gathers contributions addressing issues related to the analysis of composite structures, whose most relevant common thread is augmented numerical efficiency, which is more accurate for given computational costs than existing methods and methodologies. It first presents structural theories to deal with the anisotropy of composites and to embed multifield and nonlinear effects to extend de...
