Computational Mechanics
Computational mechanics is increasingly a critical element of both practical engineering design and of scientific studies. Active areas of research include: the development of highly efficient methods for stress analysis of multiply cracked solids, the mesh less boundary node method (BNM); efficient method for coupled fluid-solid systems; optimization of coordination; limit cycle analysis.
