Download or read book Numerical Methods for Experimental Mechanics written by Donald Berghaus and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to place a resource in the hands of experimental mechanics researchers to enable them to understand and to obtain a working familiarity with certain of the numerical methods particularly useful to the field. The book is organized to permit readers to study the methods and to observe their application in experimental problems. It is also intended to encourage readers to directly apply the methods to the same problems or to similar problems of their choosing. To this end, computer programs are available electronically, together with data, for easy application. Program listings are given in the appendix. There are four chapters which make up the central coverage of the text. The first of these deals with least-square methods of problem solution, both for curve fitting and for general solution of overdetermined problems. Nonlinear least-squares methods are included. Secondly, splines; specifically smoothed splines, are covered, including specification of boundary conditions for the latter. Use for differentiation is emphasized with attention to control of possible excesses in smoothing. Transform methods are the third major area covered; both the Discrete Fourier Transform and the Fast Fourier Transform. Their combined use is described for appropriate problems. Finally, digital filters are included, principally the Butterworth low pass filter. Coverage also includes different filter orders, high pass filters and the two-pass filter technique. The author has had experience with the four areas covered and with all ofthe example problems described in the text.
Download or read book Experimental Mechanics of Solids and Structures written by Jérôme Molimard and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the characterization of materials to accelerated life testing, experimentation with solids and structures is present in all stages of the design of mechanical devices. Sometimes only an experimental model can bring the necessary elements for understanding, the physics under study just being too complex for an efficient numerical model. This book presents the classical tools in the experimental approach to mechanical engineering, as well as the methods that have revolutionized the field over the past 20 years: photomechanics, signal processing, statistical data analysis, design of experiments, uncertainty analysis, etc. Experimental Mechanics of Solids and Structures also replaces mechanical testing in a larger context: firstly, that of the experimental model, with its own hypotheses; then that of the knowledge acquisition process, which is structured and robust; finally, that of a reliable analysis of the results obtained, in a context where uncertainty could be important.

This book was released on 2020-02-08 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines innovative numerical methods for computational solid and fluid mechanics that can be used to model complex problems in engineering. It also presents innovative and promising simulation methods, including the fundamentals of these methods, as well as advanced topics and complex applications. Further, the book explores how numerical simulations can significantly reduce the number of time-consuming and expensive experiments required, and can support engineering decisions by providing data that would be very difficult, if not impossible, to obtain experimentally. It also includes chapters covering topics such as particle methods addressing particle-based materials and numerical methods that are based on discrete element formulations; fictitious domain methods; phase field models; computational fluid dynamics based on modern finite volume schemes; hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin methods; and non-intrusive coupling methods for structural models.

Download or read book Handbook on Experimental Mechanics written by A. S. Kobayashi and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 1993-07-26 with total page 1074 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This newly revised and updated edition of the classic Handbook on Experimental Mechanics documents both the traditional methods as well as the new principles involved in stress analysis of materials. The emergence of new materials and new disciplines, together with the escalating use of on- and off-line computers for rapid data processing and the combined use of experimental and numerical techniques have greatly expanded the capabilities of experimental mechanics. Twenty-seven internationally renowned scholars have contributed their collective experience to produce this comprehensive handbook. While covering traditional methods, such as strain gage instrumentation, the most widely used experimental technique, the book also discusses the new experimental techniques such als holography, holographic interferometry, geometric moire, moire interferometry, image processing, and modal analysis, which have emerged as practical tools in the broader field of experimental mechanics. The Handbook on Experimental Mechanics is strongly recommended for mechanical engineers, aeronautical and aerospace engineers, structural engineers, and chemical engineers requiring an authoritative reference covering both time-honored methods and new techniques in experimental mechanics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, the field of computational fluid dynamics has made significant advances in enabling advanced computing architectures to understand many phenomena in biological, geophysical, and engineering fluid flows. Almost all research areas in fluids use numerical methods at various complexities: from molecular to continuum descriptions; from laminar to turbulent regimes; from low speed to hypersonic, from stencil-based computations to meshless approaches; from local basis functions to global expansions, as well as from first-order approximation to high-order with spectral accuracy. Many successful efforts have been put forth in dynamic adaptation strategies, e.g., adaptive mesh refinement and multiresolution representation approaches. Furthermore, with recent advances in artificial intelligence and heterogeneous computing, the broader fluids community has gained the momentum to revisit and investigate such practices. This Special Issue, containing a collection of 13 papers, brings together researchers to address recent numerical advances in fluid mechanics.
