Book Description
Este texto está dirigido a los alumnos universitarios que se inician en el estudio de la Mecánica de los Medios Continuos. El contenido está pensado para ser impartido en una asignatura cuatrimestral como la que estudian los alumnos de segundo curso de la E.T.S. de Ingenieros Industriales de C. Real.La Mecánica de los Medios Continuos es una materia fundamental en la que se apoyan otras como pueden ser la Resistencia de los Materiales o el Cálculo de Estructuras. A pesar de que la Mecánica de los Medios Continuos incluye el estudio de los cuerpos en cualquier estado, ya sea éste sólido o fluido, en el presente texto sólo se tratarán los primeros, dado que Mecánica de Fluidos existe como tal asignatura en el plan de estudios de la carrera de Ingeniero Industrial.El libro se organiza en ocho capítulos, en los que se incluyen varios problemas resueltos para ilustrar los conceptos teóricos expuestos. Tras un primer capítulo en donde se intruduce al cálculo tensorial, se estudia el estado elástico de un punto (capítulos 2, 3, 4 y 5). En el capítulo 6 se resuelven dos problemas clásicos de la elasticidad: la viga en voladizo con carga en el extremo libre y la torsión de cilindros rectos. Los dos últimos capítulos se dedican, respectivamente, al estudio de la plasticidad y de los métodos energéticos. En concreto, el índice es el siguiente: 1. Introducción al cálculo tensorial 2. Estado de tensiones del punto 3. Estado de deformaciones del punto 4. Relación entre tensiones y deformaciones 5. Planteamiento del problema elástico 6. Ejemplos de aplicación 7.

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 397
Book Description
This volume consists of a collection of chapters by recognized experts to provide a comprehensive fundamental theoretical continuum treatment of constitutive laws used for modelling the mechanical and coupled-field properties of various types of solid materials. It covers the main types of solid material behaviour, including isotropic and anisotropic nonlinear elasticity, implicit theories, viscoelasticity, plasticity, electro- and magneto-mechanical interactions, growth, damage, thermomechanics, poroelasticity, composites and homogenization. The volume provides a general framework for research in a wide range of applications involving the deformation of solid materials. It will be of considerable benefit to both established and early career researchers concerned with fundamental theory in solid mechanics and its applications by collecting diverse material in a single volume. The readership ranges from beginning graduate students to senior researchers in academia and industry.

Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9789058095343
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1012
Book Description
During the life of a dam, changes in safety standards, legislation and land use will inevitably occur, and functional deterioration may also appear. To meet these challenges, these Proceedings from a panel of international experts assess, define and re-evaluate the design criteria for the construction of dams and the many attendant issues in on-going maintenance and management. Authors include international specialists: academics, professionals and those in local government, utilities and suppliers. Practitioners from these same fields will find the book a useful tool in acquiring a comprehensive knowledge of managing and retrofitting dams, so that they can continue to meet society's needs.

Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions - 2 Volume Set
Author: Claudio Modena
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0429621000
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1466
Book Description
Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions contains about 160 papers that were presented at the IV International Seminar on Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions that was held from 10 to 13 November, 2004 in Padova Italy. Following publications of previous seminars that were organized in Barcelona, Spain (1995 and 1998) and Guimarães, Portugal (2001), state-of-the-art information is presented in these two volumes on the preservation, protection, and restoration of historical constructions, both comprising monumental structures and complete city centers. These two proceedings volumes are devoted to the possibilities of numerical and experimental techniques in the maintenance of historical structures. In this respect, the papers, originating from over 30 countries, are subdivided in the following areas: Historical aspects and general methodology, Materials and laboratory testing, Non-destructive testing and inspection techniques, Dynamic behavior and structural monitoring, Analytical and numerical approaches, Consolidation and strengthening techniques, Historical timber and metal structures, Seismic analysis and vulnerability assessment, Seismic strengthening and innovative systems, Case studies. Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions is a valuable source of information for scientists and practitioners working on structure-related issues of historical constructions

Diagnosis of Heritage Buildings by Non-Destructive Techniques
Author: Blanca Tejedor Herrán
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0443160023
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 664
Book Description
Besides their notable historical and cultural significance, heritage buildings crucially contribute to the economy of those countries that rely heavily on the tourism industry. Investigation and monitoring of the origins of deterioration and damage are therefore key to the preservation of architectural heritage. Diagnosis of Heritage Buildings by Non-Destructive Techniques offers an up-to-date overview of state-of-the-art knowledge by collating specialized studies written by an international group of experts in the field, while also examining the value of these non-intrusive methods through a number of real-life case studies which prove NDT techniques' global relevance. The volume is an invaluable reference resource for students, researchers, and practitioners alike. - Helps readers to easily identify the latest advances in non-destructive testing by subdividing the content into sections specific to each assessment approach - Explores the integration of different NDT methodologies, facilitating the interoperability of traditional and advanced technologies - Presents case studies based on real built heritage to show how to correctly implement the measurement techniques described, and to interpret the results
