Читать книгу Multiscale Modelling and Optimisation of Materials and Structures - Tadeusz Burczynski - Страница 9

Multiscale Modelling and Optimisation of Materials and Structures presents an important and challenging area of research that enables the design of new materials and structures with better quality, strength, and performance parameters. It also provides a possibility for the creation of reliable models that take into account structural, material, and topological properties at different scales. The book addresses four major areas: (i) the basic principles of macroscale, microscale, and nanoscale modeling techniques; (ii) the connection of microscale and/or nanoscale models with macrosimulation software; (iii) optimization development in the framework of multiscale engineering and the solution of identification problems; (iv) the computer science techniques used in this class of models and advice for scientists interested in developing their own models and software for multiscale analysis and optimization.

Therefore, the book presents several approaches to multiscale modelling, such as the bridging and homogenization methods, as well as the general formulation of complex optimization and identification problems in multiscale simulations. It also presents the application of global optimization algorithms based on robust bioinspired algorithms, proposes parallel and multi‐subpopulation approaches in order to speed‐up computations, and discusses several numerical examples of multiscale modeling, optimization, and identification of composite and functionally graded engineering materials.

Multiscale Modelling and Optimisation of Materials and Structures is thereby a valuable source of information for young scientists and students looking to develop their own models, write their own computer programs, and implement them into simulation systems.
