Modeling of Creep for Structural Analysis

Focusing on the simulation and analysis of time-dependent stress and strain changes in engineering structures, this book explores creep mechanics in detail. It covers the formulation of constitutive equations for multi-axial stress states and applies structural mechanics models to various forms like beams and shells. Additionally, it reviews both classical and contemporary methods for modeling creep, aiming to enhance the existing solutions with sophisticated examples for structural analysis applications.
