* Presents novel techniques for modeling 3D cracks and their evolution in solids. * Cracks are modeled in terms of signed distance functions (level sets). Stress, strain and displacement field are determined using the extended finite elements method (X-FEM).
ARM designs the cores of microcontrollers which equip most embedded systems based on 32-bit processors. Cortex M3 is one of these designs, recently developed by ARM with microcontroller applications in mind.
This book explores the fundamental role of grain boundaries in the plasticity of crystalline materials, providing a multi-scale approach to plasticity to facilitate understanding.
A Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) consists of a set of variables, a domain of values for each variable and a set of constraints. The objective is to assign a value for each variable such that all constraints are satisfied.
This book introduces ALM in the context of banks and insurance companies. Although this strategy has a core of fundamental frameworks, models may vary between banks and insurance companies because of the different risks and goals involved.
Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling presents a large variety of models and algorithms dedicated to the... Læs mere
Advanced Graph Theory focuses on some of the main notions arising in graph theory with an emphasis from the very start of the book on the possible applications of the theory and the fruitful links existing with linear algebra.
