Description
Very few polymer mechanics problems are solved with only pen and paper today, and virtually all academic research and industrial work relies heavily on finite element simulations and specialized computer software. Introducing and demonstrating the utility of computational tools and simulations, Mechanics of Solid Polymers provides a modern view of how solid polymers behave, how they can be experimentally characterized, and how to predict their behavior in different load environments. Reflecting the significant progress made in the understanding of polymer behaviour over the last two decades, this book will discuss recent developments and compare them to classical theories. The book shows how best to make use of commercially available finite element software to solve polymer mechanics problems, introducing readers to the current state of the art in predicting failure using a combination of experiment and computational techniques. Case studies and example Matlab code are also included. As industry and academia are increasingly reliant on advanced computational mechanics software to implement sophisticated constitutive models – and authoritative information is hard to find in one place - this book provides engineers with what they need to know to make best use of the technology available.

Looks great, a very eye catching cover, capturing the essence of the subject. I couldn't be happier with my purchase (quality and condition exactly as described in the listing) and the service provided. Well priced, suitably packaged and to have my item arrive five days outside the original E.T.A is to be commended considering the hit and miss nature of our postal system. Outstanding, absolutely top shelf, can't recommend highly enough. A well deserved Five star rating for a Five star vendor.

Amazing book to read! I’m hooked already! This book isn’t just about combat, it teaches you everyday hack’s & tactics especially when dealing with difficult persons. The book came securely packaged, as the listing states : it’s brand new in appearance & has that new book smell. I researched a couple of sellers on EBay as majority will not send to our Country. This Seller obviously could get the book to me. Brilliant communication between myself & the seller, price ✔️, postage ✔️.

Excellent Quality. Brand New. Looks very Nice! Seller's price UNBEATABLE. I'd buy from this Seller again. Description spot on. Seller's communication XL+, very helpful & pleasant. Packaging XL+. I was afraid to open package. It's like opening a B'day present w/o the Gift wrap. Post cost's definitely XL+ being FREE. Excellent delivery time. Arrived earlier than predicted, considering our mail usually takes over 2wk 780km from the coast, bcoz we're remote. 10Q very much. XL+
