Neutron Kinetics, Thermal-hydraulics, and structural mechanics are all important in this effort.
The variational form of (2) is often used as the basis for developing the finite element method in structural mechanics.
It appears to have originally been developed to compute resonance frequencies in the field of structural mechanics.
These ideas showed to be very productive, not only in structural mechanics, but for mathematical physics at large.
Thus, this program is widely used in college courses related to structural mechanics and finite element method.
Specifically, he is a pioneer in computational structural mechanics.
The topological derivative can be applied to shape optimization problems in structural mechanics.
The structural mechanics of such paraphysical waves precluded any reaction to regular matter or normal energy phenomena.
The emphasis is on the synergy between hydrodynamics, structural mechanics and automatic control.
Hughes has developed computational methods for understanding solid, structural and fluid mechanics.
