This volume presents a collection of contributions on advanced approaches of continuum mechanics, which were written to celebrate the 60th birthday of Prof. Holm Altenbach. The contributions are on topics related to the theoretical foundations for the analysis of rods, shells and three-dimensional solids, formulation of constitutive models for advanced materials, as well as development of new approaches to the modeling of damage and fractures.
Explores the relationship between discrete and continuum mechanics as a tool to model new and complex metamaterials. Including a comprehensive bibliography and historical review of the field, and a pedagogical mathematical treatment, it is ideal for graduate students and researchers in mechanical and civil engineering, and materials science.
This proceedings volume contains papers on the main topics reflecting the scientific programme of the symposium: hierarchical, refined mathematical and technical models of shells, plates, and beams; relation of 2D and 1D models to 3D linear, non-linear and physical models; junction problems. In particular, peculiarities of cusped shells, plates, and beams are emphasized and special attention is paid to junction, multibody and fluid-elastic shell (plate, beam) interaction problems and their applications. The contributions are theoretical, practical, and numerical in character. This volume is dedicated to Ilia Vekua on the centenary of his birth.

Das Buch behandelt die thermodynamischen Grundlagen der Strahlungsenergie. Ein Schwerpunkt dieses Fachbuches ist die Solarenergie und deren Umwandlung in thermische, mechanische bzw. elektrische Energie. Hierbei steht nicht die apparative Technik im Vordergrund, sondern die physikalischen Hintergründe, wie sie zur Modellierung und Auslegung von Strahlungsenergiewandlern notwendig sind.
Besonderheiten: Übersicht über den aktuellen Wissensstand im historischen Zusammenhang; ausführliche Literaturübersicht; anschauliche Berechnungsbeispiele; im Anhang: ausführliche Zusammenstellung wichtiger Berechnungsgleichungen.
"This is the third volume of the German Immigrants series (see also Items 6580, 6581, and 6583), this one listing passengers from Bremen to New York between 1863 and September 1867. Owing to the total destruction of the original Bremen passenger lists, this volume, like the others, is the only practical means of discovering information on thousands of individuals for whom immigrant origin data was thought to be irretrievably lost. In effect, it is a partial reconstruction of the Bremen records, based on official passenger lists and manifests in the custody of the National Archives. It is, therefore, a record of arrivals rather than departures, and it is the closest we are ever likely to come to duplicating information in the lost Bremen records"--Publisher website (December 2007).
