Several facets of current developments have already been treated in di?erent works published within the series 'Studies in mechanics of materials and structures'; for example, modelling heterogeneous materials (Besson et al. ), fracture mechanics (Leblond), computational strategies and namely LATIN method (Ladev` eze), instability problems (NQ Son) and ve- ?cation of ?nite element method (Ladev` eze-Pelle). To these (French) books, one should also add the work of Lemaitre-Chaboche on nonlinear behavior of solid materials and of Batoz on ?nite element method.

Reviews

From the reviews: “Examining modelling and ultimate limit computation of complex structures, the text … focuses on finite element solution methods. Who is it for? Undergraduates and postgraduates in the field of physics, materials science, chemistry and electrical engineering disciplines. … it is perfectly complemented by numerous illustrations and worked examples. Would you recommend it? Definitely for anyone studying solid state theory.” (Times Higher Education, December, 2009)
