World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd Asymptotic Theory Of Anisotropic Plates And
Book SynopsisA consistent theory for thin anisotropic layered structures is developed starting from asymptotic analysis of 3D equations in linear elasticity. The consideration is not restricted to the traditional boundary conditions along the faces of the structure expressed in terms of stresses, originating a new type of boundary value problems, which is not governed by the classical Kirchhoff-Love assumptions. More general boundary value problems, in particular related to elastic foundations are also studied.The general asymptotic approach is illustrated by a number of particular problems for elastic and thermoelastic beams and plates. For the latter, the validity of derived approximate theories is investigated by comparison with associated exact solution. The author also develops an asymptotic approach to dynamic analysis of layered media composed of thin layers motivated by modeling of engineering structures under seismic excitation.Table of ContentsPlane Problem for a Rectangular Elastic Strip.

World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd Introduction To Practical Peridynamics:
Book SynopsisParting with the classical continuum concepts of stress and strain in the computational simulation of solids, this book proposes a peridynamic model that applies the model directly to particle lattices. The model is directly solvable on a computer.Introduction to Practical Peridynamics is both a graduate-level textbook and a treatise. The text provides the necessary foundations to understand and apply the state-based peridynamic lattice model, as well as a guide for the practical use of the model — for solving realistic structural engineering problems (particularly in reinforced concrete structures) in elasticity, plasticity, damage, fracture, and large deformations.Contents in this book include introductory chapters presenting the historical background of the subject; classical elasticity; computational solid modeling; continuum mechanics; fracture mechanics; particle dynamics simulations on parallel computers; as well as example simulations (with model applications).Table of ContentsDeformable Solids; Beginnings of the Theory of Elasticity; Continuum Mechanics; Fracture Mechanics; Bond-Based Continuum Peridynamics; Particle Lattice Model for Solids; Elastic Bond-Based Peridynamic Lattice Model; State-Based Peridynamic Lattice Model (SPLM); Elastic SPLM; Plasticity; Damage; Particle Dynamics; Computational Implementation; Simulation of Reinforced Concrete;

World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd Introduction To Elasticity Theory For Crystal
Book SynopsisThe book presents a unified and self-sufficient and reader-friendly introduction to the anisotropic elasticity theory necessary to model a wide range of point, line, planar and volume type crystal defects (e.g., vacancies, dislocations, interfaces, inhomogeneities and inclusions).The necessary elasticity theory is first developed along with basic methods for obtaining solutions. This is followed by a detailed treatment of each defect type. Included are analyses of their elastic fields and energies, their interactions with imposed stresses and image stresses, and the interactions that occur between them, all employing the basic methods introduced earlier.All results are derived in full with intermediate steps shown, and 'it can be shown' is avoided. A particular effort is made to describe and compare different methods of solving important problems. Numerous exercises (with solutions) are provided to strengthen the reader's understanding and extend the immediate text.In the 2nd edition an additional chapter has been added which treats the important topic of the self-forces that are experienced by defects that are extended in more than one dimension. A considerable number of exercises have been added which expand the scope of the book and furnish further insights. Numerous sections of the book have been rewritten to provide additional clarity and scope.The major aim of the book is to provide, in one place, a unique and complete introduction to the anisotropic theory of elasticity for defects written in a manner suitable for both students and professionals.Table of ContentsBasic Elements of Linear Elasticity; General Methods for Solving Crystal Defect Elasticity Problems; Green's Functions and Fourier Transforms; Interactions Between Defects and Various Stresses; Elastic Fields and Strain Energies of Point Defects, Line Defects (Dislocations), Planar Defects (Interfaces) and Volume Defects (Inhomogeneities and Inclusions); Interactions of the Various Defects With Imposed Stresses, Image Stresses and Self-Stresses; Interactions Between the Various Defects;
