Download or read book Thermodynamic Modeling and Materials Data Engineering written by J.-P. Caliste and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: J.-P. CALISTE, A. TRUYOL AND J. WESTBROOK The Series, "Data and Knowledge in a Changing World", exemplifies CODATA's primary purpose of collecting, from widely different fields, a wealth of information on efficient exploitation of data for progress in science and technology and making that information available to scientists and engineers. A separate and complementary CODATA Reference Series will present Directories of compiled and evaluated data and Glossaries of data-related terms. The present book "Thermodynamic Modeling and Materials Data Engineering" discusses thermodynamic, structural, systemic and heuristic approaches to the modeling of complex materials behavior in condensed phases, both fluids and solids, in order to evaluate their potential applications. Itwas inspired by the Symposium on "Materials and Structural Properties" held during the 14th International CODATA Conference in Chambery, France. The quality of the contributions to this Symposium motivated us to present" a coherent book of interest to the field. Updated contributions inspired by Symposium discussions and selections from other CODATA workshops concerning material properties data and Computer Aided Design combine to highlight the complexity of material data issues on experimental, theoretical and simulation levels Articles were selected for their pertinence in three areas. Complex data leading to interesting developments and tools such as: • new developments in state equations and their applications, • prediction and validation of physical and energy data by group correlations for pure compounds, • modeling and prediction of mixture properties.

Download or read book Combinatorial Programming Methods and Applications written by B. Roy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-08 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Combinatorial Programming" are two words whose juxtaposition still strike us as unusual, nevertheless their association in recent years adequately reflects the preoccupations underlying differing work fields, and their importance will increase both from methodology and application view points. To those who like definitions and consider the function of this book to furnish one for combinatorial programming, I will simply say that it is precise ly this which is exclusively treated here and which in the eyes of the autors is the heart of this branch of applied mathematics. Such was the initial intention of those who in the spring of 1973 gathered tog~ther in Paris to state the work of the Advanced Study Institute from which this book arises. As young as combinatorial programming is, it was easy to see that a two week school was insufficient to cover the subject in an exhaustive manner. Finally the decision had to be taken to reduce to book form, and to organise within this particular means of expression, the essential syntheses and communications. Unfortunately the discussions, the round tables, and the majority of the case studies could not be included in this book which is more of a hand-book on the subject. XIV PREFACE The choice and orientation of the surveys has been guided by two criteria : the importance of already accomplished work, and the originality of the survey to be undertaken.

Download or read book Uncertainty and Optimization in Structural Mechanics written by Abdelkhalak El Hami and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-03-11 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optimization is generally a reduction operation of a definite quantity. This process naturally takes place in our environment and through our activities. For example, many natural systems evolve, in order to minimize their potential energy. Modeling these phenomena then largely relies on our capacity to artificially reproduce these processes. In parallel, optimization problems have quickly emerged from human activities, notably from economic concerns. This book includes the most recent ideas coming from research and industry in the field of optimization, reliability and the recognition of accompanying uncertainties. It is made up of eight chapters which look at the reviewing of uncertainty tools, system reliability, optimal design of structures and their optimization (of sizing, form, topology and multi-objectives) – along with their robustness and issues on optimal safety factors. Optimization reliability coupling will also be tackled in order to take into account the uncertainties in the modeling and resolution of the problems encountered. The book is aimed at students, lecturers, engineers, PhD students and researchers. Contents 1. Uncertainty. 2. Reliability in Mechanical Systems. 3. Optimal Structural Design. 4. Multi-object Optimization with Uncertainty. 5. Robust Optimization. 6. Reliability Optimization. 7. Optimal Security Factors Approach. 8. Reliability-based Topology Optimization. About the Authors Abdelkhalak El Hami is Professor at the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées, Rouen, France. He is the author of many articles and books on optimization and uncertainty. Bouchaib Radi is Professor in the Faculty of Sciences and Technology at the University of Hassan Premier, Settat, Morocco.

Download or read book M canique de propagation et de bifurcation des fissures written by RECHONaman and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-04-16 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les objectifs de la mécanique de la rupture sont double, d'une part ils concernent la description des champs mécaniques au voisinage de la pointe de la fissure et les énergies qui leur sont associées et d'autre part, ils traitent de l'évaluation de la nocivité d'une fissure en terme de la propagation de celle-ci. Deux champs d'étude constituent la structure de cet ouvrage, l'un relatif à la modélisation de la singularité induite par la pointe d'une fissure qui est relatée dans le premier tome intitulé : Modélisation des champs mécaniques en pointe de fissure et des singularités. Après un premier volume intitulé "Mécanique de la rupture par fissuration", ce deuxième tome traite des critères de propagation et de bifurcation de fissure en milieu élastique et élastoplastique sous des chargements monotones (Rupture fragile) et dynamique (Rupture par Fatigue). Les solutions analytiques obtenues ne peuvent pas être utilisées dans les structures à géométrie et conditions aux limites variées, alors il sera nécessaire de faire appel aux méthodes d'analyse numérique et plus particulièrement à la méthode des éléments finis. Deux chapitres abordent ces applications numériques : l'un, en tome I, relatif à l'introduction au calcul par éléments finis des structures fissurées et l'autre, dans le tome II traitant de la prévision de la rupture par fissuration des éléments de structures métalliques soumises à la fatigue.
