Recent Approaches in the Theory of Plates and Plate-Like Structures

This book presents the various approaches in establishment the basic equations of one- and two-dimensional structural elements. In addition, the boundaries of validity of the theories and the estimation of errors in approximate theories are given. Many contributions contain not only new theories, but also new applications, which makes the book interesting for researcher and graduate students.

Shell and Membrane Theories in Mechanics and Biology

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2014-09-09
  • -
  • Publisher: Springer

This book presents the latest results related to shells characterize and design shells, plates, membranes and other thin-walled structures, a multidisciplinary approach from macro- to nanoscale is required which involves the classical disciplines of mechanical/civil/materials engineering (design, analysis, and properties) and physics/biology/medicine among others. The book contains contributions of a meeting of specialists (mechanical engineers, mathematicians, physicists and others) in such areas as classical and non-classical shell theories. New trends with respect to applications in mechanical, civil and aero-space engineering, as well as in new branches like medicine and biology are presented which demand improvements of the theoretical foundations of these theories and a deeper understanding of the material behavior used in such structures.

Analysis of Shells, Plates, and Beams

This book commemorates the 75th birthday of Prof. George Jaiani – Georgia’s leading expert on shell theory. He is also well known outside Georgia for his individual approach to shell theory research and as an organizer of meetings, conferences and schools in the field. The collection of papers presented includes articles by scientists from various countries discussing the state of the art and new trends in the theory of shells, plates, and beams.

Mesh Methods for Boundary-Value Problems and Applications

This book gathers papers presented at the 13th International Conference on Mesh Methods for Boundary-Value Problems and Applications, which was held in Kazan, Russia, in October 2020. The papers address the following topics: the theory of mesh methods for boundary-value problems in mathematical physics; non-linear mathematical models in mechanics and physics; algorithms for solving variational inequalities; computing science; and educational systems. Given its scope, the book is chiefly intended for students in the fields of mathematical modeling science and engineering. However, it will also benefit scientists and graduate students interested in these fields.

Advances in Nonlinear Dynamics

This third of three volumes includes papers from the second series of NODYCON, which was held virtually in February of 2021. The conference papers reflect a broad coverage of topics in nonlinear dynamics, ranging from traditional topics from established streams of research to those from relatively unexplored and emerging venues of research. These include · Complex dynamics of COVID-19: modeling, prediction and control · Nonlinear phenomena in bio-systems and eco-systems · Energy harvesting · MEMS/NEMS · Multifunctional structures, materials and metamaterials · Nonlinear waves · Chaotic systems, stochasticity, and uncertainty

Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis of Size-Dependent Structural Members in Temperature Fields

This book is devoted to researchers and teachers, as well as graduate students, undergraduates and bachelors in engineering mechanics, nano-mechanics, nanomaterials, nanostructures and applied mathematics. It presents a collection of the latest developments in the field of nonlinear (chaotic) dynamics of mass distributed-parameter nanomechanical structures, providing a rigorous and comprehensive study of modeling nonlinear phenomena. It is written in a unique pedagogical style particularly suitable for independent study and self-education. In addition, the book achieves a good balance between Western and Eastern extensive studies of the mathematical problems of nonlinear vibrations of structural members.

Linguistic Bibliography for the Year 2000 / Bibliographie Linguistique de l'Année 2000

Bibliographie Linguistique/ Linguistic Bibliography is the annual bibliography of linguistics published by the Permanent International Committee of Linguists under the auspices of the International Council of Philosophy and Humanistic Studies of UNESCO. With a tradition of more than fifty years (the first two volumes, covering the years 1939-1947, were published in 1949-1950), Bibliographie Linguistique is by far the most comprehensive bibliography in the field. It covers all branches of linguistics, both theoretical and descriptive, from all geographical areas, including less known and extinct languages, with particular attention to the many endangered languages of the world. Up-to-date information is guaranteed by the collaboration of some forty contributing specialists from all over the world. With over 20,000 titles arranged according to a detailed state-of-the-art classification, Bibliographie Linguistique remains the standard reference book for every scholar of language and linguistics.

Entropy in Dynamic Systems

  • Published: 2019-10-16

  • Publisher: MDPI

In order to measure and quantify the complex behavior of real-world systems, either novel mathematical approaches or modifications of classical ones are required to precisely predict, monitor, and control complicated chaotic and stochastic processes. Though the term of entropy comes from Greek and emphasizes its analogy to energy, today, it has wandered to different branches of pure and applied sciences and is understood in a rather rough way, with emphasis placed on the transition from regular to chaotic states, stochastic and deterministic disorder, and uniform and non-uniform distribution or decay of diversity. This collection of papers addresses the notion of entropy in a very broad sense. The presented manuscripts follow from different branches of mathematical/physical sciences, natural/social sciences, and engineering-oriented sciences with emphasis placed on the complexity of dynamical systems. Topics like timing chaos and spatiotemporal chaos, bifurcation, synchronization and anti-synchronization, stability, lumped mass and continuous mechanical systems modeling, novel nonlinear phenomena, and resonances are discussed.

Trends In Continuum Physics, Trecop'98 - Proceedings Of The International Sym

A system is loosely defined as complex if it is composed of a large number of elements, interacting with each other, and the emergent global dynamics is qualitatively different from the dynamics of each one of the parts. The global dynamics may be either ordered or chaotic and among the most interesting emergent global properties are those of learning and adaptation.Complex systems, in the above sense, appear in many fields ranging from physics and technology to life and social sciences. Research in complex systems involves therefore a wide range of topics, studied in seemingly disparate fields. This calls for some effort to develop general principles and a common language so that tools deve...
