Abstract
The finite-volume theory is a well-known technique frequently used for analysis of boundary-value problems in fluid mechanics [7]. Its excellent performance has motivated attempts to extend it to solid mechanics problems. Thus, in the past two decades, several authors presented formulations based on this technique. Here, we present one of these finite-volume formulations, known as the Parametric Finite-Volume Formulation. It uses the Finite Volume Direct Averaged Method—FVDAM [1] as a basis and is summarized for the case of linear elastic problems in Cavalcante et al. [2, 3]. An extension of the Parametric Finite-Volume Formulation in order to include linear viscoelastic effect, here presented, can be found in a more detailed form in Escarpini Filho [5].
