Continuum, mechanics, and plasticity.QA808 2004-055118 1-58488-363-4 Continuum, mechanics, and plasticity. Wu, Han-Chin. (CRC (Cyclical Redundancy Checking) An error checking technique used to ensure the accuracy of transmitting digital data. The transmitted messages are divided into predetermined lengths which, used as dividends, are divided by a fixed divisor. series; modern mechanics and mathematics; no.3) Chapman & Hall / CRC, [c]2005 684 p. $119.95 The explosion in computer modeling has created significant changes and challenges in the constitutive constitutive /con·sti·tu·tive/ (kon-stich´u-tiv) produced constantly or in fixed amounts, regardless of environmental conditions or demand. models of plasticity. Wu (vicil and environmental engineering, U. of Iowa) integrates continuum mechanics Continuum mechanics is a branch of physics (specifically mechanics) that deals with continuous matter, including both solids and fluids (i.e., liquids and gases). The fact that matter is made of atoms and that it commonly has some sort of heterogeneous microstructure and plasticity for researchers in mechanical behaviors of engineering, materials, or development work in engineering analysis and design. To do so he covers the basics of continuum mechanics, including Cartesian tensors, stress, motion and deformation, conservation laws conservation laws, in physics, basic laws that together determine which processes can or cannot occur in nature; each law maintains that the total value of the quantity governed by that law, e.g., mass or energy, remains unchanged during physical processes. and constitutive equation. He also covers the basics of the continuum theory of plasticity, including the flow theory, the internal variable theory of thermo-mechanical behaviors, the internal variable theory, the combined axial-torsion of thin- walled tubes, and anisotropic Refers to properties that differ based on the direction that is measured. For example, an anisotropic antenna is a directional antenna; the power level is not the same in all directions. Contrast with isotropic. and endochronic plasticity. He includes references and exercises with each chapter. |
