By Michel Frémond

This publication presents novel insights into basic topics in stable mechanics: digital paintings and form swap. the writer explains how the main of digital paintings represents a device for research of the mechanical results of the evolution of the form of a process, the way it will be utilized to observations and experiments, and the way it can be tailored to supply predictive theories of various phenomena. The publication is split into 3 components. the 1st relates the primary of digital paintings to what we become aware of with our eyes, the second one demonstrates its flexibility at the foundation of many examples, and the 3rd applies the primary to foretell the movement of solids with huge deformations. Examples of either ordinary and weird form adjustments are awarded, and equations of movement, a few of that are completely new, are derived for gentle and non-smooth motions linked to, for example, structures of disks, structures of balls, classical and non-classical small deformation theories, platforms concerning quantity and floor harm, structures with interactions at a distance (e.g., solids bolstered through fibers), structures concerning porosity, collisions, and fracturing of solids.
