Springer Verlag, Singapore Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Composites in
Book SynopsisThis book highlights the pulchritudinous features of FRP composites emphasizing failure criteria referring to microstructural as well as micromechanical aspects. The potential and promises of this class of material as being explored for supercritical applications necessitate the analysis and assessment of FRPs with a spectrum of low to high strain rates. Additionally, constitutive modeling and shock properties of polymeric composites along with the data processing techniques and relevant theories for different characterization methods are conversed. The findings of previous studies available on mechanical characteristics of polymer composites under quasi-static and high-strain-rate circumstances are also discussed. The dearth of open literature and limited information culminate the need for this book which may eventually bridge the existing gap. Table of ContentsIntroduction to Composite Materials.- Polymer Matrix Materials for Ballistic Armors.- Fiber reinforcements.- Characterization techniques in different strain-rate spectrum.- Microstructural Failure Mechanisms Analysis.- Micromechanics of FRP Composites and the Analytical Approach for Ballistic Response.- Recent development of constitutive models for strain-rate sensitive FRP composite materials.- High-Velocity Impact Modeling in Materials Science: A Multiscale Perspective.- Interface Engineering.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Numerical Methods in Mechanics of Materials
Book SynopsisIn the dynamic digital age, the widespread use of computers has transformed engineering and science. A realistic and successful solution of an engineering problem usually begins with an accurate physical model of the problem and a proper understanding of the assumptions employed. With computers and appropriate software we can model and analyze complex physical systems and problems.However, efficient and accurate use of numerical results obtained from computer programs requires considerable background and advanced working knowledge to avoid blunders and the blind acceptance of computer results. This book provides the background and knowledge necessary to avoid these pitfalls, especially the most commonly used numerical methods employed in the solution of physical problems. It offers an in-depth presentation of the numerical methods for scales from nano to macro in nine self-contained chapters with extensive problems and up-to-date references, covering: Trends andTrade Review"The book includes detailed descriptions of trending materials modeling methods such as concurrent multiscale methods and molecular dynamics methods. The authors explain well how these methods can be used to model materials at very fine scales and improve predictions compared to conventional approaches. The description contains enough numerical implementation details to allow students, engineers and researchers interested in high fidelity materials modeling to try the methods presented in the book." -- Wing Kam Liu, Northwestern University, USA "This is a one-of-a-kind book and good for numerical methods to solve problems in mechanics of materials, from the nanoscale to the macroscale." -- Shaofan Li, University of California, Berkeley, USA "The book would be of greatest use for practicing engineers or graduate students in mechanical engineering, applied mechanics, applied physics, materials science, and related fields." --J. Lambropoulos, University of Rochester in Choice Connect Table of ContentsThe Role of Numerical Methods in Engineering. Numerical Analysis and Weighted Residuals. Finite Difference Methods. The Finite Element Method. Specialized Methods. The Boundary Element Method. Meshless Methods of Analysis. Multiphysics in Molecular Dynamics Simulation.

Cambridge University Press Dynamics of Particles and Rigid Bodies A Systematic Approach
Book SynopsisThis 2006 book is intended for undergraduate courses in dynamics. The work is a unique blend of conceptual, theoretical, and practical aspects of dynamics generally not found in dynamics books at the undergraduate level. In particular, in this book the concepts are developed in a highly rigorous manner and are applied to examples using a step-by-step approach that is completely consistent with the theory. In addition, for clarity, the notation used to develop the theory is identical to that used to solve example problems. The result of this approach is that a student is able to see clearly the connection between the theory and the application of theory to example problems. While the material is not new, instructors and their students will appreciate the highly pedagogical approach that aids in the mastery and retention of concepts. The approach used in this book teaches a student to develop a systematic approach to problem-solving.Trade ReviewThe book leads students from first principles through problem solving. It includes lots of detailed solutions to example problems, a wide range of possible homework problems, and beautiful figures and diagrams. The prose flows smoothly and is written with clarity. Choice"All examples are worked in detail, are tied in well with the text, and are accompanied by excellent illustrations. These examples are a great aid to learning the material and will leave the student in good shape for solving the complex problems that will come up in the 'real world'." Mark D.

Cambridge University Press Three Hundred Years of Gravitation
Book SynopsisTo commemorate the 300th anniversary of the publication of Isaac Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, Stephen Hawking and Werner Israel have assembled a series of unique review papers by many of the world's foremost researchers in cosmology, relativity and particle physics. The resulting volume reflects the significant and exciting advances that have been made in these fields since the editor's acclaimed volume published in 1979: General Relativity: An Einstein Centenary Survey. Newton's immense contribution to the physical sciences is assessed, and its relevance to today's physics made clear. The international contributors then chart the major developments in the study of gravitation, from Newtonian gravity to black hole physics. In the fields of galaxy formation, inflationary and quantum cosmology, and superstring unification, the book provides important overviews written by workers involved in many of the advances described. By shaping such a wide-ranging and scholTrade Review"...the papers in this collection show us that it [the study of gravitation] is exciting, provocative and stimulating..."
