Moreover, the structure of the mathematics is well suited to that of engineering problems in analysis and design. The methods of analysis in this book employ matrix algebra, graph theory and meta-heuristic algorithms, which are ideally suited for modern computational mechanics. Efficient methods are presented that lead to highly sparse and banded structural matrices. The main features of the book include: application of graph theory for efficient analysis; extension of the force method to finite element analysis; application of meta-heuristic algorithms to ordering and decomposition (sparse matrix technology); efficient use of symmetry and regularity in the force method; and simultaneous analysis and design of structures. 606 $aMechanics, Applied 606 $aSolids 606 $aGraph theory 606 $aMathematics$xData processing 606 $aComputational intelligence 606 $aSolid Mechanics 606 $aGraph Theory 606 $aComputational Science and Engineering 606 $aComputational Intelligence 615 0$aMechanics, Applied. 615 0$aSolids. 615 0$aGraph theory. 615 0$aMathematics$xData processing. 615 0$aComputational intelligence. 615 14$aSolid Mechanics. 615 24$aGraph Theory. 615 24$aComputational Science and Engineering. 615 24$aComputational Intelligence. 676 $a004 676 $a006.3 676 $a511.5 676 $a620 700 $aKaveh$b A$g(Ali),$f1948-$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01596023 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299496303321 996 $aComputational Structural Analysis and Finite Element Methods$94463291 997 $aUNINA
