Download or read book Sixty Shades of Generalized Continua written by Holm Altenbach and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-13 with total page 781 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, well-known scientists discuss modern aspects of generalized continua, in order to better understand modern materials and advanced structures. They possess complicated internal structure, and it requires the development of new approaches to model such structures and new effects caused by it. This book combines fundamental contributions in honor of Victor Eremeyev and his 60th birthday.

Download or read book The Complete Works of Gabrio Piola: Volume II written by Francesco dell'Isola and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-06 with total page 954 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the second volume of Piola’s original Italian text together with the English-language translation and comments, showing convincingly that Gabrio Piola’s work must still be regarded as a modern theory. Gabrio Piola’s work has had an enormous impact on the development of applied mathematics and continuum mechanics. As such, a committee of scientific experts took it upon themselves to translate his complete works. In a second step, they commented on Piola’s work and compared it to modern theories in mechanics in order to stress Piola’s impact on modern science and prove and confirm that he achieved significant milestones in applied mathematics.

Download or read book Mechanics of Microstructured Materials written by Helmut J. Böhm and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-05-04 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work deals with the thermomechanical mechanical behavior of microstructured materials, which has attracted considerable interest from both the academic and the industrial research communities. The past decade has witnessed major progress in the development of analytical as well as numerical modeling approaches and of experimental methods in this field. Considerable research efforts have been aimed at obtaining microstructure-property correlations and at studying the damage and failure behavior of microstructured materials. The book combines an overview of important analytical and numerical modeling approaches in continuum micromechanics and is aimed at academic and industrial researchers, such as materials scientists, mechanical engineers, and applied physicists, who are working or planning to work in the field of mechanics of microstructured materials such as composites, metals and ceramics.

Download or read book Higher Gradient Materials and Related Generalized Continua written by Holm Altenbach and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses recent findings and advanced theories presented at two workshops at TU Berlin in 2017 and 2018. It underlines several advantages of generalized continuum models compared to the classical Cauchy continuum, which although widely used in engineering practice, has a number of limitations, such as: • The structural size is very small. • The microstructure is complex. • The effects are localized. As such, the development of generalized continuum models is helpful and results in a better description of the behavior of structures or materials. At the same time, there are more and more experimental studies supporting the new models because the number of material parameters is higher.
