Fracture and Strength of Solids: Proceedings, vol.2.087849989X Fracture and strength of solids; proceedings; 2v. International Conference on Fracture and Strength of Solids, FEOFS FEOFS Far East and Oceanic Fracture Society (6th: 2005: Bali, Indonesia) Ed. by Ichsan Setya Putra and Djoko Suharto. Trans Tech Publications 2006 1536 pages $399.00 Paperback Key engineering materials; v.306-308 TA409 The over 250 papers of this proceedings were presented at the Sixth International Conference on Fracture and Strength of Solids, held in April 2005 in Bali, Indonesia and organized by the Far East and Oceanic Fracture Society. The papers are organized into major topics, including mechanics and mechanisms, residual stress Residual stresses are stresses that remain after the original cause of the stresses (external forces, heat gradient) has been removed. They remain along a cross section of the component, even without the external cause. , fatigue and crack propagation, failure analysis, smart materials, computational methods, and bio-engineering. Individual paper topics include strain rate effect on transverse To cross from side to side. compressive strength Compressive strength is the capacity of a material to withstand axially directed pushing forces. When the limit of compressive strength is reached, materials are crushed. Concrete can be made to have high compressive strength, e.g. of fiber composites, dynamic mechanical properties of MWNTs/phenolic nanocomposites, time-temperature equivalence for rocks, and grillage gril·lage n. A network or frame of timber or steel serving as a foundation, usually on ground that is wet or soft. [French, from Old French, trellis, from greille, gridiron; see optimization with multiple objectives. The papers report on current research by scientists in 15 member countries of the Society. Both editors are with the Institute of Technology in Bandung, Indonesia. ([c]20062005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR) |
