Numerical methods with discrete conservation statements are useful because they cannot
produce solutions that violate important physical constraints. A large number of numerical …

This book describes the theoretical and computational aspects of the mimetic finite
difference method for a wide class of multidimensional elliptic problems, which includes …

The mimetic finite difference (MFD) method mimics fundamental properties of mathematical
and physical systems including conservation laws, symmetry and positivity of solutions …

In a remarkably short time, the field of inequality problems has seen considerable
development in mathematics and theoretical mechanics. Applied mechanics and the …

The field of discrete calculus, also known as" discrete exterior calculus", focuses on finding a
proper set of definitions and differential operators that make it possible to operate the …

This textbook presents an Introduction to the computer-based simulation of linear structures
by the Finite Element Method (FEM). It assembles the “converged” lecture notes of …

The aim of this paper is to clarify the meaning of the mechanical state variables stress and
strain in the case of random granular assemblies. Stress and strain are expressed in terms …

This is a textbook written for use in a graduate-level course for students of mechanics and
engineering science. It is designed to cover the essential features of modern variational …
