The COVID-19 pandemic threw the inequities and inequalities around us into sharp relief.Responding to these tumultuous times, the Class of 2021 scholars of Westchester Square Academy have taken their learnings over the past four years and applied them to creative pieces that call attention to issues that continue to shape the experiences of their generation. The policy recommendations, persuasive speeches, testimonies, and poems contained within invite readers to take action. What will you do in the face of injustice?
This book highlights recent findings in industrial, manufacturing and mechanical engineering, and provides an overview of the state of the art in these fields, mainly in Russia and Eastern Europe. A broad range of topics and issues in modern engineering are discussed, including the dynamics of machines and working processes, friction, wear and lubrication in machines, surface transport and technological machines, manufacturing engineering of industrial facilities, materials engineering, metallurgy, control systems and their industrial applications, industrial mechatronics, automation and robotics. The book gathers selected papers presented at the 5th International Conference on Industrial Engineering (ICIE), held in Sochi, Russia in March 2019. The authors are experts in various fields of engineering, and all papers have been carefully reviewed. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to a wide readership, including mechanical and production engineers, lecturers in engineering disciplines, and engineering graduates.
Starting from governing differential equations, a unique and consistently weighted residual approach is used to present advanced topics in finite element analysis of structures, such as mixed and hybrid formulations, material and geometric nonlinearities, and contact problems. This book features a hands-on approach to understanding advanced concepts of the finite element method (FEM) through integrated Mathematica and MATLAB® exercises.
Testing and optimizing digital products with Siemens NX and Simcenter 3D In times of Industry 4.0 the digitalization of the value-chain becomes more and more important. The so-called digital twin allows simulations that are very close to reality. This book provides all necessary basics to perform simple as well as complex simulations with NX and Simcenter 3D (former NX CAE). It is aimed at design engineers, CAE engineers and engineering students. The following topics are covered in the book: - Motion Simulation (MBD) - Design Simulation (FEA, Nastran) - Simcenter/Advanced Simulation (FEA, CFD and EM) - Management of Calculation and Simulation Data (Teamcenter for Simulation) Starting off wit...
On a daily basis, every ship at sea, transports millions of marine organisms which have been taken onboard with ships' ballast water. The World Wildlife Fund has estimated that about 7.5 M litres of ballast water are released every hour into US waters alone with 10 Bn litres a year therefore being transferred round the world. In February 2004,

This book presents the findings of scientific studies on the successful operation of complex transport infrastructures in regions with extreme climatic and geographical conditions. It features the proceedings of the VIII International Scientific Siberian Transport Forum, TransSiberia 2019, which was held in Novosibirsk, Russia, on May 22–27, 2019. The book discusses improving energy efficiency in the transportation sector and the use of artificial intelligence in transport, highlighting a range of topics, such as freight and logistics, freeway traffic modelling and control, intelligent transport systems and smart mobility, transport data and transport models, highway and railway construction and trucking on the Siberian ice roads. Consisting of 214 high-quality papers on a wide range of issues, these proceedings appeal to scientists, engineers, managers in the transport sector, and anyone involved in the construction and operation of transport infrastructure facilities.
This book provides the necessary basics to perform simple to complex simulations with Siemens NX software. It is aimed at designers, CAE engineers, and engineering students. Based on NX 9 the following topics are covered in the book: Motion Simulation (MBD), Design Simulation FEA (Nastran), Advanced Simulation (FEA, CFD and EM) and the management of calculation and simulation data (Teamcenter for Simulation). Starting with brief theoretical introductions, each chapter contains learning tasks of increasing difficulty. Most of them are based on the CAD model of the legendary Opel RAK2. The CAD data and calculation results of all exercises can be found online. The exercises can be done in NX versions 8, 8.5, 9, 10 and probably later versions.
This book gives an introduction to the finite element method as a general computational method for solving partial differential equations approximately. Our approach is mathematical in nature with a strong focus on the underlying mathematical principles, such as approximation properties of piecewise polynomial spaces, and variational formulations of partial differential equations, but with a minimum level of advanced mathematical machinery from functional analysis and partial differential equations. In principle, the material should be accessible to students with only knowledge of calculus of several variables, basic partial differential equations, and linear algebra, as the necessary concep...
