Computational mechanics is the discipline concerned with the use of
computational methods to study phenomena governed by the principles
of mechanics. Before the emergence of computational science (also
called scientific computing) as a ‘third way’ besides theoretical
and experimental sciences, computational mechanics was widely
considered to be a sub-discipline of applied mechanics. It is now
considered to be a sub-discipline within computational
science.
This book presents a recent state of the art on the foundations
and applications of the meshless natural element method in
computational mechanics, including structural mechanics and
material forming processes involving solids and Newtonian and
non-Newtonian fluids.
