This book offers the proceedings of Euromech colloquium 642, which wanted to provide a forum to present and debate several advanced computational, experimental, and analytical methods for studying the behaviour of complex materials and structures. The goal was to gather researchers (engineers, physicists, and mathematicians) specialized in multiscale material modelling for simulating the mechanics of solids and the physics of matter with the final aim of bridging the gap between solids and structural mechanics and material science in the modelling of “complex” materials. Both computational and experimental aspects play a central role, and talks have also focused on a broad range of aspec...
The idea of preparing an Energies Special Issue on “Structural Prognostics and Health Management in Power & Energy Systems” is to compile information on the recent advances in structural prognostics and health management (SPHM). Continued improvements on SPHM have been made possible through advanced signature analysis, performance degradation assessment, as well as accurate modeling of failure mechanisms by introducing advanced mathematical approaches/tools. Through combining deterministic and probabilistic modeling techniques, research on SPHM can provide assurance for new structures at a design stage and ensure construction integrity at a fabrication phase. Specifically, power and ener...
This second of three volumes includes papers from the second series of NODYCON which was held virtually in February of 2021. The conference papers reflect a broad coverage of topics in nonlinear dynamics, ranging from traditional topics from established streams of research to those from relatively unexplored and emerging venues of research. These include · Nonlinear vibration control · Control of nonlinear systems and synchronization · Experimental dynamics · System identification and SHM · Multibody dynamics
This book explores the use of composite rebars—especially Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRPs)—as a modern structural solution in concrete construction, offering a comprehensive analysis of their mechanical behavior, durability, and performance. It presents the latest research on material properties, concrete compatibility, and real-world applications in structures such as tunnels, tanks, and bridges. Emphasizing the benefits of FRPs, including corrosion resistance, high tensile strength, and lightweight design, the book provides valuable insights into the future of reinforced concrete engineering.
MuRiCo5 Selected, peer reviewed papers from the International Conference on Mechanics of Masonry Structures Strengthened with Composites Materials (MuRiCo5), June 28-30, 2017, Bologna, Italy
Nowadays, it is quite easy to see various applications of fibrous composites, functionally graded materials, laminated composite, nano-structured reinforcement, morphing composites, in many engineering fields, such as aerospace, mechanical, naval and civil engineering. The increase in the use of composite structures in different engineering practices justify the present international meeting where researches from every part of the globe can share and discuss the recent advancements regarding the use of standard structural components within advanced applications such as buckling, vibrations, repair, reinforcements, concrete, composite laminated materials and more recent metamaterials. For thi...
This book gathers the peer-reviewed papers presented at the XXIV Conference of the Italian Association of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, held in Rome, Italy, on September 15-19, 2019 (AIMETA 2019). The conference topics encompass all aspects of general, fluid, solid and structural mechanics, as well as mechanics for machines and mechanical systems, including theoretical, computational and experimental techniques and technological applications. As such the book represents an invaluable, up-to-the-minute tool, providing an essential overview of the most recent advances in the field.
