TitleBoundary Elements VIII : Proceedings of the 8th International Conference, Tokyo, Japan, September 1986
Author(s)Tanaka, Masataka;Brebbia, Carlos A
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1986.
DescriptionXII, 917 p. 20 illus : online resource
Abstract NoteThe International Conference on Boundary Element Methods in Engineering was started in 1978 with the following objectives: i) To act as a focus for BE research at a time when the technique wasjust emerging as a powerful tool for engineering analysis. ii) To attract new as weIl as established researchers on Boundary Elements, in order to maintain its vitality and originality. iii) To try to relate the Boundary Element Method to other engineering techniques in an effort to help unify the field of engineering analysis, rather than to contribute to its fragmentation. These objectives were achieved during the last 7 conferences and this meeting - the eighth - has continued to be as innovative and dynamic as any ofthe previous conferences. Another important aim ofthe conference is to encourage the participation of researchers from as many different countries as possible and in this regard it is a policy of the organizers to hold the conference in different locations. It is easy to forget when working on scientific projects that in science as weIl as in other subjects, human relationships are as important as mathematical equations. Science progresses not only as a resuIt oflaboratory and computer experiments or abstract thinking but also by a process of personal interaction

TitleIsodyne Stress Analysis
Author(s)Pindera, M.J
PublicationDordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 1989.
Description288 p : online resource
Abstract Note''It is true that "Nothing is more practical than a theory" Provided - however - That the assumptions on which the theory is founded Are well understood. - But, indeed, engineering experience shows that "Nothing can be more disastrous than a theory When applied to a real problem Outside of the practicailimits of the assumptions made", Because of an homonymous identity With the problem under consideration. " (J. T. P. ) The primary objective of this work is to present the theories of analytical and optical isodynes and the related measurement procedures in a manner com?? patible with the modem scientific methodology and with the requirements of modem technology pertaining to the usefulness of the stress analysis proce?? dures. The selected examples illustrate some major theses of this work and demonstrate the particular efficiency of the isodyne methods in solving the technologically important problems in fracture mechanics and mechanics of composite structures including new materials. To satisfy this objective it was necessary to depart from the common practice of presenting theories and techniques of experimental methods as a compatible system of equations and procedures without mentioning the tacitly accepted assumptions and their influence on the theoretical admissibility of analytical expressions and the reliability of the experimental or analytical results. It was necessary to design a more general frame of reference which could allow to assess the scientific correctness of isodyne methods and the reliability of experimental results

TitleNonlinear Stability and Bifurcation Theory : An Introduction for Engineers and Applied Scientists
Author(s)Troger, Hans;Steindl, Alois
PublicationVienna, Springer Vienna, 1991.
DescriptionXI, 407 p : online resource
Abstract NoteEvery student in engineering or in other fields of the applied sciences who has passed through his curriculum knows that the treatment of nonlin?? ear problems has been either avoided completely or is confined to special courses where a great number of different ad-hoc methods are presented. The wide-spread believe that no straightforward solution procedures for nonlinear problems are available prevails even today in engineering cir?? cles. Though in some courses it is indicated that in principle nonlinear problems are solveable by numerical methods the treatment of nonlinear problems, more or less, is considered to be an art or an intellectual game. A good example for this statement was the search for Ljapunov functions for nonlinear stability problems in the seventies. However things have changed. At the beginning of the seventies, start?? ing with the work of V.1. Arnold, R. Thom and many others, new ideas which, however, have their origin in the work of H. Poincare and A. A. Andronov, in the treatment of nonlinear problems appeared. These ideas gave birth to the term Bifurcation Theory. Bifurcation theory allows to solve a great class of nonlinear problems under variation of parameters in a straightforward manner

TitleMechanics and Physics of Energy Density : Characterization of material/structure behaviour with and without damage
Author(s)Sih, George C;Gdoutos, E.E
PublicationDordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 1992.
DescriptionXXIV, 210 p : online resource
Abstract NoteMaterial technology has become so diversified in theories and the construction of novel microstructures that the researchers and practitioners are drifting further apart. This book is based on material presented at an International Symposium in Xanthi, Greece in July 1989. The symposium attracted a group of individual engineers and scientists from the East and West who tackled the question of why particular manipulations of a given material have particular effects. Emphasis is laid on the strain energy function because of the versatile role it plays in mechanics and physics. It has been used successfully not only in predicting the failure of solids but also in formulating constitutive relations in continuum mechanics. The material presented falls within the areas of: Fundamentals of Strain Energy Density, Damage Analysis on Strain Energy Density, Strain Energy Density as Failure Criterion, Applications, and Composites

TitleVirtual Principles in Aircraft Structures
Author(s)Gatewood, M
PublicationDordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 1989.
DescriptionXXXIII, 695 p. 69 illus : online resource
Abstract NoteThe basic partial differential equations for the stresses and displacements in clas?? sical three dimensional elasticity theory can be set up in three ways: (1) to solve for the displacements first and then the stresses; (2) to solve for the stresses first and then the displacements; and (3) to solve for both stresses and displacements simultaneously. These three methods are identified in the literature as (1) the displacement method, (2) the stress or force method, and (3) the combined or mixed method. Closed form solutions of the partial differential equations with their complicated boundary conditions for any of these three methods have been obtained only in special cases. In order to obtain solutions, various special methods have been developed to determine the stresses and displacements in structures. The equations have been reduced to two and one dimensional forms for plates, beams, and trusses. By neglecting the local effects at the edges and ends, satisfactory solutions can be obtained for many case~. The procedures for reducing the three dimensional equations to two and one dimensional equations are described in Chapter 1, Volume 1, where the various approximations are pointed out

TitleDiscretization Methods in Structural Mechanics : IUTAM/IACM Symposium Vienna/Austria, 5.???9.6.1989
Author(s)Kuhn, G??nther;Mang, Herbert
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1990.
DescriptionXXVIII, 436 p. 194 illus : online resource
Abstract NoteThe advent of the digital computer has given great impetus to the development of modern discretization methods in structural mechanics. The young history of the finite element method (FEM) reflects the dramatic increase of computing speed and storage capacity within a relatively short period of time. The history of the boundary element method (BEM) is still younger. Presently, intense scientific efforts aimed at extending the range of application of the BEM can be observed. More than 10 years ago, O.C. Zienkiewicz and his co-workers published the first papers on the coupling of FE and BE discretizations of subregions of solids for the purpose of exploiting the complementary advantages of the two discretization methods and reducing their disadvantages. The FEM has revolutionized structural analysis in industry as well as academia. The BEM has a fair share in the continuation of this revolution. Both discretization methods have become a domain of vigorous, world-wide research activities. The rapid increase of the number of specialized journals and scientific meetings indicates the remarkable increase of research efforts in this important subdolll.ain of computational ulechanics. Several discussions of this situation in the Committee for Discretization Methods ill Solid Mechanics of the Society for Applied Mathematics and Mechanics (GAMM) resulted in the plan to submit a proposal to the General Assembly of the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) to sponsor a pertinent IUTAM Symposium

TitleDirect-Contact Heat Transfer
Author(s)Kreith, Frank;Boehm, R.F
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1988.
DescriptionXI, 402 p. 20 illus : online resource
Abstract Noteto increase the use of direct contact processes, the National Science Foundation sup?? ported a workshop on direct contact heat transfer at the Solar Energy Research Insti?? tute in the summer of 1985. We served as organizers for this workshop, which em?? phasized an area of thermal engineering that, in our opinion, has great promise for the future, but has not yet reached the point of wide-spread commercial application. Hence, a summary of the state of knowledge at this point is timely. The workshop had a dual objective: 1. To summarize the current state of knowledge in such a form that industrial practi?? tioners can make use of the available information. 2. To indicate the research and development needed to advance the state-of-the-art, indicating not only what kind of research is needed, but also the industrial poten?? tial that could be realized if the information to be obtained through the proposed research activities were available

TitleBifurcation and Stability of Dissipative Systems
Author(s)Nguyen, Q.S
PublicationVienna, Springer Vienna, 1993.
DescriptionV, 291 p. 14 illus : online resource
Abstract NoteThe first theme concerns the plastic buckling of structures in the spirit of Hill???s classical approach. Non-bifurcation and stability criteria are introduced and post-bifurcation analysis performed by asymptotic development method in relation with Hutchinson???s work. Some recent results on the generalized standard model are given and their connection to Hill???s general formulation is presented. Instability phenomena of inelastic flow processes such as strain localization and necking are discussed. The second theme concerns stability and bifurcation problems in internally damaged or cracked colids. In brittle fracture or brittle damage, the evolution law of crack lengths or damage parameters is time-independent like in plasticity and leads to a similar mathematical description of the quasi-static evolution. Stability and non-bifurcation criteria in the sense of Hill can be again obtained from the discussion of the rate response
