The interface between continuum mechanics and the life sciences teems with opportunities. Theoretical advances in areas such as complex fluids, interfacial flows and non-linear solids are unlocking ...

Designing shear connections with slotted holes should adhere to relevant codes and standards, such as the AISC Specification for Structural Steel Buildings (AISC 360) in the US or the Eurocode 3 ...

FEM are not the only numerical methods for solving continuum mechanics problems. Other methods include finite difference methods (FDM), finite volume methods (FVM), boundary element methods (BEM ...

In this paper, a simple and accurate sinusoidal trigonometric theory (STT) for the bending analysis of functionally graded single-layer and sandwich plates and shells is presented for the first time.
