A survey of several methods under the heading of strong formulation finite element method
(SFEM) is presented. These approaches are distinguished from classical one, termed weak …

Derivatives, mostly in the form of gradients and Hessians, are ubiquitous in machine
learning. Automatic differentiation (AD), also called algorithmic differentiation or simply" auto …

Auxetic metamaterials with negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) are attracting tremendous
attention due to their unusual and intriguing mechanical properties. This paper proposes a …

Completely revised text focuses on use of spectral methods to solve boundary value,
eigenvalue, and time-dependent problems, but also covers Hermite, Laguerre, rational …

It is worth remarking that little is known about generalized differential quadrature analysis of
three‐dimensional flow of non‐Newtonian Casson fluid in the presence of Lorentz force …

In the past few years, the differential quadrature method has been applied extensively in
engineering. This book, aimed primarily at practising engineers, scientists and graduate …

Auxetic metamaterials have emerged as novel advanced materials with unique physical and
mechanical properties that conventional materials do not possess. This paper examines the …

The free vibration analysis of a circular plate made up of a porous material integrated by
piezoelectric actuator patches has been studied. The plate is assumed to be thin and its …

The metal foams are widely used in different areas of technologies due to their both, low
specific weight and good stiffness. Adding nanofillers as reinforcement to metal foams …

This book is focused on a powerful numerical methodology for solving PDEs to high
accuracy in any number of dimensions: Radial Basis Functions (RBFs). During the past …
