The book approaches the basic theory of structures from a different perspective from standard pedagogy. There is consideration of work and energy concepts as fundamental and the equations of statics derived from them. Likewise, these concepts, together with that of the characteristic response, are used in the derivation of beam theory. Plane sections remaining plane is then seen as a particular result for isotropic, homogeneous, prismatic beams. The general theory may still be used where none of these conditions holds, and can even be applied to trusses. It also corrects errors in the theory o

This book explains the new solution methodology by discussing plane isotropic elasticity, multiple layered plate, anisotropic elasticity, sectorial plate and thin plate bending problems in detail. A number of existing problems without analytical solutions within the framework of classical approaches are solved analytically using this symplectic approach. Symplectic methodologies can be applied not only to problems in elasticity, but also to other solid mechanics problems. In addition, it can also be extended to various engineering mechanics and mathematical physics fields, such as vibration, w

La rhéologie est une spécialité située à l’interface de plusieurs disciplines : la physique, la mécanique des fluides, la mécanique des solides et la physico-chimie de la matière molle. Elle constitue un outil analytique très puissant mais la mise en œuvre et l’analyse des tests expérimentaux qu’elle réalise, soulèvent des problèmes tant théoriques que techniques. Écrit par les meilleurs spécialistes français de la rhéométrie, ce livre couvre la très large diversité des comportements rhéologiques connus, ainsi que la grande variété des outils expérimentaux et théoriques élaborés pour caractériser ces comportements. Il offre un panorama des méthodes utilisées et de la mise en œuvre de la mesure rhéologique, par un éclairage de certaines analyses classiques, mais surtout par une approche des techniques récentes et novatrices. La présentation est concrète et pédagogique en illustrant les différentes analyses par de nombreux exemples empruntés tant au domaine académique qu’industriel. Cet ouvrage de référence s’adresse aux enseignants, aux étudiants (master, doctorat, élèves ingénieurs), aux chercheurs, mais aussi, de par sa recherche de simplicité et de pédagogie, à tout lecteur pratiquant ou susceptible de pratiquer les analyses expérimentales de la rhéologie.

Wave propagation and scattering are among the most fundamental processes that we use to comprehend the world around us. While these processes are often very complex, one way to begin to understand them is to study wave propagation in the linear approximation. This is a book describing such propagation using, as a context, the equations of elasticity. Two unifying themes are used. The first is that an understanding of plane wave interactions is fundamental to understanding more complex wave interactions. The second is that waves are best understood in an asymptotic approximation where they are free of the complications of their excitation and are governed primarily by their propagation environments. The topics covered include reflection, refraction, the propagation of interfacial waves, integral representations, radiation and diffraction, and propagation in closed and open waveguides. Linear Elastic Waves is an advanced level textbook directed at applied mathematicians, seismologists, and engineers.
