In the years since it was first published in 1973 by McGraw-Hill, this classic introductory textbook has established itself as one of the best-known and most highly regarded descriptions of Newtonian mechanics. Intended for undergraduate students with foundation skills in mathematics and a deep interest in physics, it systematically lays out the principles of mechanics: vectors, Newton's laws, momentum, energy, rotational motion, angular momentum and noninertial systems, and includes chapters on central force motion, the harmonic oscillator, and relativity. Numerous worked examples demonstrate how the principles can be applied to a wide range of physical situations, and more than 600 figures illustrate methods for approaching physical problems. The book also contains over 200 challenging problems to help the student develop a strong understanding of the subject.

This is the third supplementary volume to Kluwer's highly acclaimed twelve-volume Encyclopaedia of Mathematics. This additional volume contains nearly 500 new entries written by experts and covers developments and topics not included in the previous volumes. These entries are arranged alphabetically throughout and a detailed index is included. This supplementary volume enhances the existing twelve volumes, and together, these thirteen volumes represent the most authoritative, comprehensive and up-to-date Encyclopaedia of Mathematics available.

Flavors of Geometry is a collection of lectures on four geometrically-influenced fields of mathematics that have experienced great development in recent years. It presents chapters by masters in their fields on hyperbolic geometry, dynamics in several complex variables, convex geometry, and volume estimation. Each lecture begins with a discussion of elementary concepts, examines the highlights of the field, and concludes with a look at more advanced material. The style and presentation of the chapters are clear and accessible, and many of the lectures are richly illustrated. The book includes bibiliographies and indexes to encourage further reading. It will be an influential resource for graduate students and advanced undergraduates in mathematics.

Finite Element Analysis Of Reinforced Concrete Structures Under Monotonic Loads
Author: Hyo-Gyoung Kwak, Filip C. Filippou | Size: 1.03 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Department of Civil Engineering, University of California, Berkeley, California | Year: November 1990 | pages: 124 | ISBN: -
This study deals with the finite element analysis of the monotonic behavior of
reinforced concrete beams, slabs and beam-column joint subassemblages. It is assumed that
the behavior of these members can be described by a plane stress field. Concrete and
reinforcing steel are represented by separate material models which are combined together
with a model of the interaction between reinforcing steel and concrete through bond-slip to
describe the behavior of the composite reinforced concrete material. The material behavior of
concrete is described by two failure surfaces in the biaxial stress space and one failure surface
in the biaxial strain space. Concrete is assumed as a linear elastic material for stress states
which lie inside the initial yield surface. For stresses outside this surface the behavior of
concrete is described by a nonlinear orthotropic model, whose axes of orthotropy are parallel
to the principal strain directions. The concrete stress-strain relation is derived from equivalent
uniaxial relations in the axes of orthotropy. The behavior of cracked concrete is described by
a system of orthogonal cracks, which follow the principal strain directions and are thus
rotating during the load history. Crushing or cracking of concrete takes place when the strains
lie outside the ultimate surface in the biaxial strain space.

Author: J. Toby Mottram, Christopher T. Shaw | Size: 9.92 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner | Publisher: Mcgraw Hill Book Co Ltd | Year: March 1996 | pages: 276 | ISBN: 0077090934, ISBN-13: 978-0077090937
Increasing use is being made of commercial software to demonstrate the applications of finite element theory to mechanical or structural design. This book is aimed at those who are new to using commercially available finite element software for mechanical or structural design and those who are contemplating using this software. It emphasizes the practicalities of modelling with commercial software rather than the theory of finite elements. A step-by-step approach is used to describe the analysis process and a series of teaching examples, using simple test cases and real engineering problems, are provided to complement this.

While the theory and application of finite elements methods can be extended to incompatible, hybrid, and mixed element methods, important issues, such as determining the reliability of the solution of incompatible multivariable elements, along with a common perception of impracticality, have hindered the widespread implementation of these methods. Today, however, recent advances--many directly attributable to these authors--have allowed the development of the stability theory and abstract mathematics to useful tools.
Hybrid and Incompatible Finite Element Methods introduces these advances in the theory and applications of incompatible and multivariable finite element methods. After an overview of the variation formulation of finite element methods in solid mechanics, the authors discuss the fundamental theory and systematically demonstrate the theoretical foundations of incompatible elements and their application to different problems in the theory of elasticity. They also introduce new ideas in the development of hybrid finite elements, study the numerical stability of the hybrid and mixed element, and establish the theory of zero energy deformation modes. The final chapters, explore applications to fracture problems, present a bound analysis for fracture parameters, and demonstrate an implementation of a finite element analysis program.

This book contains an introduction to hyperbolic partial differential equations and a powerful class of numerical methods for approximating their solution, (including both linear problems and nonlinear conservation laws). These equations describe a wide range of wave propagation and transport phenomena arising in nearly every scientific and engineering discipline. Several applications are described in a self-contained manner, along with much of the mathematical theory of hyperbolic problems. High-resolution versions of Godunov's method are developed, in which Riemann problems are solved to determine the local wave structure and limiters are applied to eliminate numerical oscillations. The methods were orginally designed to capture shock waves accurately, but are also useful tools for studying linear wave-progagation problems, particulary in heterogenous material. The methods studied are in the CLAWPACK software package. Source code for all the examples presented can be found on the web, along with animations of many of the simulations. This provides an excellent learning environment for understanding wave propagation phenomena and finite volume methods.

Engineered Rock Structures in Mining and Civil Construction
Author: Raghu N. Singh, Ajoy | Size: 180 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner | Publisher: Taylor & Francis | Year: 01/01/2006 | pages: 535 | ISBN: 9780415400138
The book collates and sifts a vast amount of literature on the design of structures in the mining and construction industries to synthesize a comprehensive text on the subject area. The focus is on the application of theory to practice and the book is richly illustrated with worked out examples. The presentation is lucid and based on the extensive professional, teaching and research experience of the authors. The text seeks to address the key issues of design of 'engineered' structures in or on rock. The book will serve as a standard text for undergraduate courses in mining, civil engineering and engineering geology.
