Mastering Calculations in Linear and Nonlinear Mechanics (2005)

This work deals with the control of the hypotheses leading from a mechanical model, usually coming from continuum mechanics, to a numerical model, i.r. the mastery of the mechanical computation process itself. Particular attention is given to structural analysis which, in this context, is the most advanced domain.

A significant part of this work is dedicated to the application of error estimators to the control of the various parameters involved in a calculation, beginning with the parameters related to the mesh.
