Publisher's Synopsis
The present volume of "Applied Mechanics and Materials" contains 107 selected full-length papers from the 2nd Australasian Conference on Computational Mechanics held in Brisbane, Australia on 30 November 2015 to 1 December 2015 (ACCM2015).The collected articles well reflect the latest progress made in some emerging areas of computational mechanics, including finite element method, finite volume method, meshless method, atomic and multiscale modelling method, structural and solid mechanics, computational fluid dynamics, geomechanics, computational biomechanics, structural and topology optimization, fracture and damage mechanics, and vibration and dynamics.
