In diesem Open-Access-Buch werden Möglichkeiten vorgestellt, die emissionsminimale Luftfahrt der Zukunft für die Erreichung der Klimaziele zu unterstützen. Das essentials zeigt, wie sich die Reduktion von Gewicht und Luftwiderstand auf den Energieverbrauch von Verkehrsflugzeugen auswirkt und was den Systemleichtbau vom klassischen Leichtbau unterscheidet. Es beschreibt, welche Methoden, Bauweisen, Fertigungstechnologien und welche Möglichkeiten der Funktionsintegration für energieeffizientere Flugzeuge zur Verfügung stehen. Dabei werden auch Forschungsergebnisse in den unterschiedlichen Bereichen abgebildet, die die Leser*innen zur weiteren Forschung und Umsetzung anregen sollen. Der Autor: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Martin Wiedemann leitet das DLR-Institut für Faserverbundleichtbau und Adaptronik und ist Professor für Adaptronik an der TU Braunschweig. Er verbindet seine Erfahrungen aus 15 Jahren in der Luftfahrtindustrie mit den Möglichkeiten der Forschung auf dem Gebiet des Systemleichtbaus, einer gemeinsamen Disziplin des Faserverbundleichtbaus und der Adaptronik. Martin Wiedemann ist zudem Vorstandsmitglied im Exzellenzcluster „Sustainable and Energy Efficient Aviation – SE2A” der Technischen Universität Braunschweig und im Forschungsverbund Windenergie von FhG-IWES, ForWind und DLR. Er ist Co-Leiter der DLR Allianz für Leichtbauproduktionstechnologien und Mitglied im Lenkungskreis CFK-Rumpf Deutschland, einer Kooperation des DLR mit Airbus und Premium Aerotec.

This book reviews work that covers everything from basic chemistry to advanced applications. Chitin and chitosan are used in a plethora of applications from wastewater treatment to prosthetics. After introducing the subject of polysaccharides as a whole, the authors turn to the preparation of chitin and chitosan and the characterization of the latter. The book provides information on chitin chemistry, extraction of chitin, chitosan preparation processes, and the applications of their derivatives in various fields. Among the applications that are included in detail are the adsorption of heavy metals for pollution prevention and clean-up, biosensors, cosmetics, various medical applications from anti-tumor activity to bone tissue engineering, agriculture and food production, and proton exchange membranes for fuel cells. Chitin and Chitosan features: • information on molecular structure, synthesis, properties, and latest research related to chitin and chitosan; • coverage of a wide range of topics from the properties of chitosan to its derivatives and applications; • in-depth information on biomedical applications of chitin and chitosan; and • information that can be applied to other biopolymer processing engineering areas. This book will be of interest to practitioners working in a wide variety of industries for which chitin and chitosan are useful materials, researchers in biosensors and heavy-metal adsorption, and to academic researchers investigating the properties, preparation, and uses of these materials.

This textbook aimed at upper-level undergraduate and graduate engineering students who need to describe the large deformation of elastic materials like soft plastics, rubber, and biological materials. The classical approaches to finite deformations of elastic materials describe a dozen or more measures of stress and strain. These classical approaches require an in-depth knowledge of tensor analysis and provide little instruction as to how to relate the derived equations to the materials to be described. This text, by contrast, introduces only one strain measure and one stress measure. No tensor analysis is required. The theory is applied by showing how to measure material properties and to perform computer simulations for both isotropic and anisotropic materials. The theory can be covered in one chapter for students familiar with Euler-Lagrange techniques, but is also introduced more slowly in several chapters for students not familiar with these techniques. The connection to linear elasticity is provided along with a comparison of this approach to classical elasticity. Explains ably simulation of materials undergoing large deformations Illustrates a simpler mathematical base to build thermodynamic and viscoelastic theories Describes how experimenters can make better numerical descriptions of deformable bodies.
