This book presents a compilation of lectures delivered at the São Paulo School of Advanced Sciences on Nonlinear Dynamics, categorized into four groups: parametric resonance, nonlinear modal analysis and model reduction, synchronization, and strongly nonlinear dynamics. Interwoven seamlessly, these groups cover a wide range of topics, from fundamental concepts to practical applications, catering to both introductory and advanced readers. The first group, consisting of chapters 1 and 2, serves as an introduction to the theory of parametric resonance and the dynamics of parametrically excited slender structures. Chapters 3, 4, and 5 form the second group, offering insights into normal forms, ...
In the recent decades, computational procedures have been applied to an increasing extent in engineering and the physical sciences. Mostly, two separate fields have been considered, namely, the analysis of solids and structures and the analysis of fluid flows. These continuous advances in analyses are of much interest to physicists, mathematicians and in particular, engineers. Also, computational fluid and solid mechanics are no longer treated as entirely separate fields of applications, but instead, coupled fluid and solid analysis is being pursued. The objective of the Book Series is to publish monographs, textbooks, and proceedings of conferences of archival value, on any subject of computational fluid dynamics, computational solid and structural mechanics, and computational multi-physics dynamics. The publications are written by and for physicists, mathematicians and engineers and are to emphasize the modeling, analysis and solution of problems in engineering.
As Lições em Mecânica das Estruturas são o resultado de décadas de atuação dos autores nas disciplinas de Mecânica das Estruturas no curso de Engenharia Civil da Escola Politécnica da USP, e poderão ser igualmente úteis aos alunos nos cursos de Engenharia Mecânica, Mecatrônica, Naval, Química, Minas, Aeronáutica e Aeroespacial, e tantos outros em que a análise de sistemas estruturais seja requerida.Este terceiro volume – Lições em Mecânica das Estruturas: Análise Elastoplástica – dedica-se ao estudo de sistemas estruturais em regime elastoplástico perfeito e introduz o leitor ao campo da não linearidade física. Na parte A, estabelecem-se os fundamentos da análise...
Nós, Engenheiros Civis, temos sido geralmente formados dentro de uma visão estática das estruturas. Isso nos tem levado a ignorar que o tempo passa. A Dinâmica das Estruturas se ocupa do efeito da passagem do tempo e suas consequências sobre as estruturas, tal como levar em conta a energia cinética e a presença de forças de inércia. No nosso caso particular, o que tem maior interesse são as vibrações, pequenos movimentos repetitivos em torno de uma configuração de referência. Dificilmente, na prática, coloca-se o problema de ruína de uma estrutura em função de cargas dinâmicas (a não ser nos casos particulares de carregamentos de vento e de sismos). O mais comum é a con...
Maintenance, Monitoring, Safety, Risk and Resilience of Bridges and Bridge Networks contains the lectures and papers presented at the Eighth International Conference on Bridge Maintenance, Safety and Management (IABMAS 2016), held in Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná, Brazil, 26-30 June, 2016. This volume consists of a book of extended abstracts and a DVD containing the full papers of 369 contributions presented at IABMAS 2016, including the T.Y. Lin Lecture, eight Keynote Lectures, and 360 technical papers from 38 countries. The contributions deal with the state-of-the-art as well as emerging concepts and innovative applications related to all main aspects of bridge maintenance, safety, management, r...
