Question
Can somebody guide me in what to read and learn in order to be able to solve or understand how to solve the following types of problems:
The modeling/simulation of the bullet, shot into the water container, at the bottom of which there is a glass cup
Automobile crash into the wall/another automobile.
I want to be able to construct the correct mathematical models of such problems. And then to be able to solve them numerically and get the simulation. Of course depending on the problem I will need supercomputer's power, but that is another question.
Explanation / Answer
Learn about Finite Element Methods. For crash dynamics Smooth Particle Dynamics is good.
