Book Multiparameter Stability Theory with Mechanical Applications

Download or read book Multiparameter Stability Theory with Mechanical Applications written by Alexander P. Seyranian and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2003 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with fundamental problems, concepts, and methods of multiparameter stability theory with applications in mechanics. It presents recent achievements and knowledge of bifurcation theory, sensitivity analysis of stability characteristics, general aspects of nonconservative stability problems, analysis of singularities of boundaries for the stability domains, stability analysis of multiparameter linear periodic systems, and optimization of structures under stability constraints. Systems with finite degrees of freedom and with continuous models are both considered. The book combines mathematical foundation with interesting classical and modern mechanical problems.A number of mechanical problems illustrating how bifurcations and singularities change the behavior of systems and lead to new physical phenomena are discussed. Among these problems, the authors consider systems of rotating bodies, tubes conveying fluid, elastic columns under the action of periodic and follower forces, optimization problems for conservative systems, etc. The methods presented are constructive and easy to implement in computer programs.This book is addressed to graduate students, academics, researchers, and practitioners in aerospace, naval, civil, and mechanical engineering. No special background is needed; just a basic knowledge of mathematics and mechanics.

Book Matrix Methods  Theory  Algorithms And Applications   Dedicated To The Memory Of Gene Golub

Download or read book Matrix Methods Theory Algorithms And Applications Dedicated To The Memory Of Gene Golub written by Vadim Olshevsky and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010-04-05 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compared to other books devoted to matrices, this volume is unique in covering the whole of a triptych consisting of algebraic theory, algorithmic problems and numerical applications, all united by the essential use and urge for development of matrix methods. This was the spirit of the 2nd International Conference on Matrix Methods and Operator Equations from 23-27 July 2007 in Moscow that was organized by Dario Bini, Gene Golub, Alexander Guterman, Vadim Olshevsky, Stefano Serra-Capizzano, Gilbert Strang and Eugene Tyrtyshnikov.Matrix methods provide the key to many problems in pure and applied mathematics. However, linear algebra theory, numerical algorithms and matrices in FEM/BEM applications usually live as if in three separate worlds. In this volume, maybe for the first time ever, they are compiled together as one entity as it was at the Moscow meeting, where the algebraic part was impersonated by Hans Schneider, algorithms by Gene Golub, and applications by Guri Marchuk. All topics intervened in plenary sessions are specially categorized into three sections of this volume.The soul of the meeting was Gene Golub, who rendered a charming “Golub's dimension” to the three main axes of the conference topics. This volume is dedicated in gratitude to his memory.

Book Stability and Convergence of Mechanical Systems with Unilateral Constraints

Download or read book Stability and Convergence of Mechanical Systems with Unilateral Constraints written by Remco I. Leine and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-12-29 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the stability theory for systems with bilateral constraints is a well-established field, this monograph represents a systematic study of mechanical systems with unilateral constraints, such as unilateral contact, impact and friction. Such unilateral constraints give rise to non-smooth dynamical models for which stability theory is developed in this work. The book will be of interest to those working in the field of non-smooth mechanics and dynamics.

Book Process Modelling and Simulation with Finite Element Methods

Download or read book Process Modelling and Simulation with Finite Element Methods written by William B. J. Zimmerman and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2004 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a systematic description and case studies of chemical engineering modelling and simulation based on the MATLAB/FEMLAB tools, in support of selected topics in undergraduate and postgraduate programmes that require numerical solution of complex balance equations (ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, nonlinear equations, integro-differential equations). These systems arise naturally in analysis of transport phenomena, process systems, chemical reactions and chemical thermodynamics, and particle rate processes. Templates are given for modelling both state-of-the-art research topics (e.g. microfluidic networks, film drying, multiphase flow, population balance equations) and case studies of commonplace design calculations -- mixed phase reactor design, heat transfer, flowsheet analysis of unit operations, flash distillations, etc. The great strength of this book is that it makes modelling and simulating in the MATLAB/FEMLAB environment approachable to both the novice and the expert modeller.

Download or read book Stability Theory written by Horst Leipholz and published by Wiley. This book was released on 1987-03-18 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of stability is of key importance in aerospace, mechanical, and civil engineering. This fully revised 2nd Edition of the well-received work includes new developments that have occurred over the past 18 years, especially in the area of elastomechanics. This presentation goes beyond the original framework of stability theory and treats stability problems of the kinetics of rigid bodies and systems, as well as of elastomechanics, using a single, unified theory. Discusses the concepts of ``follower forces'' and nonconservative loads as introduced into aeroelasticity. Covers the problems in elastic mechanics that involve pulsating loads or periodically varying parameters. Treatment is unique in that it shows the common traits of stability problems which occur in all branches of mechanics. Mathematical prerequisites are referred to in an appendix.
