Description for Material Instabilities in Solids
Hardcover. This text is an edited collection of 40 scientists' contributions from the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) Symposium on Material Instabilities in Solids, which was held in Delft in June 1997. Editor(s): Borst, Rene de; Giessen, Erik van der. Num Pages: 576 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: TGB; TGM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 252 x 180 x 38. Weight in Grams: 1172.
Modern, powerful computational methods, combined with major improvements in experimental techniques, have resulted in significant advances in the study of material instabilities. This book presents the latest research in the field of material instabilities in solid materials (soils, concrete, rocks, ceramics, metals, polymers and composites) and associated phenomena, such as strain localisation, fracture and failure in general. Collected within this volume are the cutting edge contributions from the prestigious IUTAM Symposium of 1997. A broad spectrum of materials is covered, with the emphasis on common aspects of failure, and a full range of experimental, analytical and numerical methods are addressed. ... Read more
