Description: "This text presents the theory of continuum mechanics using computational methods. It covers topics including general problems of large rotation and large deformations, the development of finite element formulations for such problems, and the limitations of existing finite element formulations. The second edition, ideal for students and researchers, features a new chapter on computational geometry and finite element analysis"--
