Synopsis

Although software can be used to model and analyze complex systems, the solution of an engineering problem and the accurate use of numerical results require some physical modeling and an understanding of the assumptions employed. This book provides the grounding in numerical methods necessary to avoid the blind acceptance of results.

À propos de l?auteur

Ken P. Chong was the former Interim Division Director, Engineering Advisor, and Program Director of Structural Systems, Mechanics and Materials at the National Science Foundation (NSF), 1989 - 2009. Currently he is a Research Professor at George Washington University. He earned a Ph.D. in Engineering Mechanics from Princeton University in 1969. He specializes in solid mechanics and materials, computational mechanics, nano-mechanics, smart structures and structural mechanics. He has been the principal investigator of over 20 federally funded research projects (from NSF, DOD, DOE, DOI, etc). He was a senior research engineer with the National Steel Corp. for 5 years after graduation from Princeton. After that he was a professor for 15 years at a state university. He has published 200 technical papers, authored 4 textbooks on engineering mechanics including Elasticity in Engineering Mechanics; Approximate Solution Methods in Engineering Mechanics, and edited 10 books including University Programs in Computer-Aided Engineering, Design, and Manufacturing; Materials for the New Millennium; Modeling and Simulation-based Life-cycle Engineering. He was the editor of the Elsevier Journal of Thin-Walled Structures, 1987-2013. He is co-editor of the UK Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, a CRC/Spon book series on structures as well as serving on several editorial boards. He has given over 50 keynote lectures at major conferences, the Mindlin, Sadowsky and Raouf Lectures, received awards including the fellow of ASME, American Academy of Mechanics, SEM, and United States Association for Computational Mechanics; Edmund Friedman Professional Recognition Award; Honorary Doctorate, Shanghai University; Honorary Professor, Harbin Institute of Technology; NCKU Distinguished Alumnus, Distinguished Member, ASCE; NSF highest Distinguished Service Award, AWU-DOE Outstanding Academic and Professional Achievement Award, and the ASME Bel
