Modelling of materials problems

  • Published:
Journal of Computer-Aided Materials Design

Summary

A strategy is outlined for constructing models of material behaviour. It is described by a flow chart which identifies nine stages. They include identification of the purpose of the model, the construction of the model itself, and its implementation in a useful form.
