Structural and Computational Mechanics Book Series

The Esculapio Series in “Structural and Computational Mechanics” has been inaugurated with the aim of arranging a series of books in these key fields related to academic research, education and industrial applications. The Esculapio Series publishes high-level texts for academic students, deep studies on good practice and industrial technology, interesting and fundamental research topics related to industrial development and engineering practices. The readership encapsulates undergraduate and PhD students, researchers, scientists and free-lancers within applied mechanics topics. Civil/structural, mechanical, aerospace, naval, nuclear, automotive, materials, environmental, electrical, and biomedical engineers could benefit from this book series. The present book series would be the natural home for authors proficient in mechanics of materials, mechanics of structures as well as computational and applied mechanics. The Esculapio Series will focus on the following research areas, but not limited to: - Applied mechanics - Applied mathematics - Computational mechanics - Theoretical modeling - Engineering structures - Typical materials: concrete, metal, wood, masonry, etc. - Classical and advanced numerical methods - Composite Materials - Nonlinearities - Repair and reinforcements - Meta-materials and advanced materials - SMART structural components
