Computational Mechanics

Computational Mechanics is a field that uses computer simulations to analyze and predict the behavior of materials and structures under various forces and conditions. It integrates principles from continuum mechanics, which studies how solid and fluid materials deform and flow, with advanced numerical methods. This approach allows engineers and scientists to solve complex problems, like predicting how a bridge will react to heavy traffic or how a material will behave under extreme temperatures, ultimately enhancing design, safety, and efficiency in various industries, from construction to aerospace.
