Focus on Acoustic Emission Research
This book is a practical and intermediate level handbook written to describe acoustic emission technique, focusing on the results obtained from different kinds of materials through an engineering point of view. Internal structural modifications of materials such as dislocation motion, plastic deformation, grain boundary sliding or crack propagation are connected to the production of acoustic waves. The possibility of detecting these low amplitude waves, which are known as acoustic emissions, in order to prevent failure represents an interesting and very promising approach that has been applied in several engineering fields. The possibility to monitor the whole history of materials without sc...
Incertitudes et intelligence artificielle
L’informatique, grâce à l’intelligence artificielle (IA), développe une communication totale entre tous les systèmes informatisés. L’IA est la représentation de l’intelligence humaine reposant sur la création et l’application d’algorithmes dans un environnement informatique précis afin que celle-ci mette à l’oeuvre un comportement humain. Ce type de technologie nécessite des systèmes informatiques, des données avec des systèmes de gestion et des algorithmes avancés utilisables par l’IA. S’agissant de la mécanique, l’intelligence artificielle offre plusieurs possibilités au niveau de la construction, de la maintenance prédictive, de la surveillance des installations ainsi qu’en robotique, fabrication additive, matériaux, commande vibratoire, agro-composite, etc. Incertitudes et intelligence artificielle dresse le panorama des techniques utilisées et développées en mécanique, chacune est illustrée par des exemples concrets et didactiques. L’ouvrage s’adresse aux étudiants et constitue également un support précieux pour les ingénieurs en activité et pour les enseignants chercheurs.

Delamination Behaviour of Composites
Given such advantages as low weight compared to strength and toughness, laminated composites are now used in a wide range of applications. Their increasing use has underlined the need to understand their principal mode of failure, delamination. This important book reviews key research in understanding and preventing delamination.The first part of the book reviews general issues such as the role of fracture mechanics in understanding delamination, design issues and ways of testing delamination resistance. Part two describes techniques for detecting and characterising delamination such as piezoelectric sensors, the use of lamb waves and acoustic emission techniques. The next two sections of th...
Structural Health Monitoring 2019
This two-volume book set contains over 425 papers. While offering investigations into how sensors, networks, and signaling systems are used in dozens of civil and military applications, a special feature of this book is its exploration of how to enable intelligent life-cycle health management for the industrial internet of things. It demonstrates how machine-learning and stochastic methods add value to SHM data by taking into account changing environments and conditional events. It offers new insights on interactions between SHM data and big data for improving the safety and integrity of monitored structures. Information is also presented on how SHM sensing interfaces with smart and functional materials operating in dynamic systems. A large number of SHM applications are explained, including additive manufacturing, advanced composites, actuators, corrosion, machinery, power plants, piping, robotics, underground infrastructure, and many more.Chapters in the book are edited presentations from a September 2019 Workshop at Stanford University co-sponsored by the U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research and the Office of Naval Research.
Failure Analysis and Fractography of Polymer Composites
The growing use of polymer composites is leading to increasing demand for fractographic expertise. Fractography is the study of fracture surface morphologies and it gives an insight into damage and failure mechanisms, underpinning the development of physically-based failure criteria. In composites research it provides a crucial link between predictive models and experimental observations. Finally, it is vital for post-mortem analysis of failed or crashed polymer composite components, the findings of which can be used to optimise future designs.Failure analysis and fractography of polymer composites covers the following topics: methodology and tools for failure analysis; fibre-dominated failu...
