"This book addresses the intersection of entrepreneurship, innovation and sustainability (EIS), presenting high-quality research illuminating the relationship between the three fields. The EIS nexus is particularly relevant from a European point of view given the focus of the European Commission on corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability, as well as their prominent role within the European Union in general. Also, the rapid economic growth witnessed especially in the BRIC countries in recent years requires that firms reconcile sustainability aspects with profitability and innovation, and entrepreneurs are seen as key diffusers of these aims. Sustainability requires both radical and incremental innovation at many different levels (technology, product, process, system). In many cases, such innovations come from small and medium-sized enterprises and so the role of the entrepreneur is key to their success. The book is split into six sections. The first section examines the nexus in detail focusing on system-oriented connectivity between sustainability, innovation and entrepreneurship. The second section looks at how to nurture corporate entrepreneurship for sustainability; and the third considers "mature" industries such as automotives, chemicals and electronics and how sustainability aspects can be integrated into innovation process and strategy. The fourth section examines the nexus through the lens of developing countries in Africa. Sustainable entrepreneurship is identified as a hugely beneficial way to foster development. The fifth section of the book concentrates on SMEs; and finally the EIS nexus is approached from a network perspective and focuses on inter-organisational partnerships, which are often an important facilitator or spark for EIS initiatives. This book will prove to be essential for researchers in the EIS nexus and be of invaluable help to practitioners, governments and inter-governmental bodies attempting to encourage sustainable entrepreneurship and innovation."--Provided by publisher.

Dieses Lehrbuch bringt im ersten Teil leicht verständlich die Merkmale und Eigenschaften linearer finiter Elemente aus dem Bereich der Elastostatik und Dynamik und erläutert Vorgehensweisen bei der Erstellung von Simulationsmodellen. Im zweiten Teil liegt der Schwerpunkt  auf nichtlinearen zeitabhängigen Vorgängen und Lösungsverfahren. Praxisbeispiele aus der Umformtechnik werden anschaulich mit der Software LS-DYNA® gelöst. Der Fokus liegt auf einer Erklärung der Zusammenhänge, die für Anwender kommerzieller Software notwendig sind. Theoretische Grundlagen werden in dem Umfang dargestellt, der für das Verständnis der Benutzung eines Programms notwendig ist. Der Inhalt Einführung in die lineare FEM - Mechanische Größen der Strukturmechanik - Mathematische Modellierung über Energieprinzipien - Diskretisierung mit Finiten Elementen - Finite-Elemente-Klassen - Mathematische und numerische Aspekte der FEM - Geometrische Nichtlinearität - Materielle Nichtli nearität - Kontaktmodellierung - Gleichungslösung bei nichtlinearen statischen Problemen - Zeitintegration von nichtlinearen dynamischen Problemen - Blechumformsimulation - Anhang: Mathematische Hilfsmittel - Einführung in die Simulation mit LS-DYNA® Die Zielgruppen - Studierende aus Bachelor- und Masterstudiengängen der Ingenieurwissenschaften an Hochschulen und Technischen Universitäten  - Ingenieure und Techniker Der Autor Prof. Dr.-Ing.
