      abstract = {This book treats the derivation and implementation of a  unified particle finite element formulation for the  solution of fluid and solid mechanics, Fluid-Structure  Interaction (FSI) and coupled thermal problems. FSI  problems are involved in many engineering branches, from  aeronautics to civil and biomedical engineering. The  numerical method proposed in this book has been designed to  deal with a large part of these. In particular, it is  capable of simulating accurately free-surface fluids  interacting with structures that may undergo large  displacements, suffer from thermo-plastic deformations and  even melt. The method accuracy has been successfully  verified in several numerical examples. The thesis also  contains the application of the proposed numerical strategy  for the simulation of a real industrial problem. This  thesis, defended at the Universitat Politecnica de  Catalunya in 2015, was selected (ex aequo) as the best PhD  thesis in numerical methods in Spain for the year 2015 by  the Spanish Society of Numerical Methods in Engineering  (SEMNI).},
