Modern Practice in Stress and Vibration Analysis VI
Description:
An essential requirement for achieving the correct functionality and operation of engineering systems and structures is to understand the fundamental issues which underpin stress distributions and dynamic behaviour. Design software is increasingly being developed in order to integrate a number of analysis tools. The key to the success of this development is the generation of modelling and analysis techniques, together with experimental validation over likely parameter ranges.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
Researchers with various backgrounds assess the current status of modeling and analyzing stress and vibration in engineering systems and structures over a range of technical areas. The keynote lectures discuss the development of the humanoid robot LOLA, three-dimensional elasticity solutions for isotropic and generally anisotropic bodies, and six fundamental boundary value problems in the mechanics of periodic composites. Others of the 65 papers consider such aspects as optical techniques, plates and composites, and non-linear dynamics.
