Nonsmooth Dynamics of Contacting Thermoelastic Bodies (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This work is devoted to an intensive study in contact mechanics, treating the nonsmooth dynamics of contacting bodies. Mathematical modeling is illustrated and discussed in numerous examples of engineering objects working in different kinematic and dynamic environments.

Topics covered in five self-contained chapters examine non-steady dynamic phenomena which are determined by key factors: i.e., heat conduction, thermal stresses, and the amount of wearing. New to this monograph is the importance of the inertia factor, which is considered on par with thermal stresses.

Principal features:

* Unique monograph to address the topic of dynamic contact problems in thermoelasticity, which take into account inertial effects and influence of thermoelastic coupling for models of solids in contact

* Mathematical modeling methods are illustrated and applied to practical engineering problems: e.g., for improving the reliability and durability of machines and mechanisms under friction, heat, and amount of wear in contact

* Presents solutions that describe many interesting nonlinear effects

Nonsmooth Dynamics of Contacting Thermoelastic Bodies is an engaging accessible practical reference for engineers (civil, mechanical, industrial) and researchers in theoretical and applied mechanics, applied mathematics, physicists, and graduate students.

Rezensionen

From the reviews: "This monograph is devoted to methods of analysis and models of contacting systems dynamics, including heat generation and wears exhibited by such systems. ... The monograph is generally well written and well organized. Strength of the book is the quantity and variety of example nonlinear system considered. This book is accessible to readers with a fundamental knowledge of ordinary and partial differential equations and linear theory of thermoelasticity. The book can be highly recommended for experts in the theory of elasticity." (Igor Andrianov, Zentrablatt MATH, Vol. 1153, 2009) "In this very interesting book, models of frictional contact between solids including dynamics, heat generation and wear are presented and methods of solution are analyzed. This book is written in a very clear and very precise way, the bibliography is exhaustive and examples are numerous." (Frédéric Charles Lebon, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2010 a)
