Meshfree Methods for Partial Differential Equations V (Lecture Notes in Computational Science and Engineering)
By Michael Griebel, Marc Alexander Schweitzer


Publisher: Springer
Number Of Pages: 250
Publication Date: 2010-11-25
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 3642162282
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9783642162282


The numerical treatment of partial differential equations with particle methods and meshfree discretization techniques is an extremely active research field, both in the mathematics and engineering communities. Meshfree methods are becoming increasingly mainstream in various applications. Due to their independence of a mesh, particle schemes and meshfree methods can deal with large geometric changes of the domain more easily than classical discretization techniques. Furthermore, meshfree methods offer a promising approach for the coupling of particle models to continuous models. This volume of LNCSE is a collection of the papers from the proceedings of the Fifth International Workshop on Meshfree Methods, held in Bonn in August 2009. The articles address the different meshfree methods and their use in applied mathematics, physics and engineering. The volume is intended to foster this highly active and exciting area of interdisciplinary research and to present recent advances and findings in this field.

EN 15870:2009 Adhesives - Determination of tensile strength of butt joints (ISO 6922:1987 modified)

[Image: info.png]
This European Standard specifies a method for determining the bond strength of a butt joint when subjected
to tensile force. The method can be applied to all types of adhesives. Although primarily intended for use
under ambient conditions, the basic method can also be applied to testing under a wide range of temperature
and other environmental conditions. The method requires rigid adherends that can be produced to the
required dimensional tolerances and that will withstand the forces applied to them during the test.

EN 14566:2008 Mechanical fasteners for gypsum plasterboard systems - Definitions, requirements and test methods

[Image: info.png]
This European Standard specifies the characteristics and performance of mechanical fasteners, including nails, screws and staples, intended to be used for the fixing of gypsum plasterboard, gypsum boards with fibrous reinforcement, products from secondary processing and suitable ancillary products as shown in Figure 2, to timber and metal, as appropriate, in building construction works. The fasteners secure the board to the framing enabling its surface to be finished by jointing or plastering to receive decoration. They can also be used for the construction of the framing and for the connection between substructure and load bearing components and for fixing boards together. Mechanical fasteners contribute to the stability of the assembly.
This European Standard covers the following product performance characteristics: reaction to fire and flexural strength to be measured according to the corresponding European test methods.
It provides for the evaluation of conformity of the product to this European Standard.
This European Standard also covers the additional technical characteristics that are of importance for the use and acceptance of the products by the construction industry and the reference tests for these characteristics.
This European Standard does not cover nails, screws and staples intended for use with materials other than plasterboard and the plasterboard based products referred to above and their associated system components.

Dear friends, if someone of you have the annex to this standard from 2009, please share it.

EN 520:2004 Gypsum plasterboards - Definitions, requirements and test methods

[Image: info.png]
This document specifies the characteristics and performance of gypsum plasterboards intended to be used in
building construction works including those intended for secondary manufacturing operations. It includes boards
designed to receive either direct surface decoration or gypsum plaster.
This document covers the following product performance characteristics: reaction to fire, water vapour permeability,
flexural strength (breaking load), impact resistance and thermal resistance.
The following performance characteristics are linked to systems assembled with plasterboards: shear strength, fire
resistance, impact resistance direct airborne sound insulation and acoustic absorption to be measured according to
the corresponding European test methods. If required, tests should be done on assembled systems simulating the
end use conditions.
This document covers also additional technical characteristics that are of importance for the use and acceptance of
the product by the Construction Industry and the reference tests for these characteristics.
It provides for the evaluation of conformity of the product to this document.
This document does not cover plasterboards, which have been subject to any secondary manufacturing operations
(e.g. insulating composite panels, plasterboards with thin lamination, etc.).

Dear friends, there is a new annex to this standard - from 2009, if someone of you have it - please share it.
