Homogenization and Structural Topology Optimization: Theory Practice and Software

Structural topology optimization is a fast growing field that is finding numerous applications in automotive, aerospace and mechanical design processes. Homogenization is a mathematical theory with applications in several engineering problems that are governed by partial differential equations with rapidly oscillating coefficients Homogenization and Structural Topology Optimization brings the two concepts together and successfully bridges the previously overlooked gap between the mathematical theory and the practical implementation of the homogenization method. The book is presented in a unique self-teaching style that includes numerous illustrative examples, figures and detailed explanations of concepts. The text is divided into three parts which maintains the book's reader-friendly appeal.Homogenization and Structural Topology Optimization: Theory, Practice and Software is written by Behrooz Hassani; Ernest Hinton and published by Springer. ISBNs for Homogenization and Structural Topology Optimization are 9781447108917, 1447108914 and the print ISBNs are 9783540762119, 3540762116.
