Alberto Carpinteri / Francesco Mainardi (eds.)

Fractals and Fractional Calculus in Continuum Mechanics

Herausgegeben:Carpinteri, Alberto; Mainardi, Francesco

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The book is characterized by the illustration of cases of fractal, self-similar and multi-scale structures taken from the mechanics of solid and porous materials, which have a technical interest. In addition, an accessible and self-consistent treatment of the mathematical technique of fractional calculus is provided, avoiding useless complications.
