Developments In Modern Physics Frequency Precision Measure

by Masatoshi Kajita

~~67,23€~~ 60,51€ 10% OFF

 This book presents a comprehensive history of the precision measurement of physical values. Improvements in time and frequency measurement accuracy have been instrumental to the advancement of physics. Pivotal discoveries in the field, such as the establishment of Newtonian mechanics, have often coincided with the development of more accurate clocks. There remain many questions in modern physics whose resolution would require the measurement of effects too small for our current technology to discern. Before we can solve these mysteries, we must first achieve further reductions in measurement uncertainty.The book charts the fascinating journey from our reliance on the movements of the sun to measure time, to the most recent developments in atomic clocks, reducing measurement uncertainty to 10-18. Along the way, it considers how these advancements have contributed to our understanding of physics, and the role that further improvements will play in the field.

Mechanics Of Ferromagnetoelastic Materials And Structures

by Jiashi Yang

~~67,23€~~ 60,51€ 10% OFF

 This book presents macroscopic theories of magnetoelastic interactions in solids, mainly for saturated ferromagnetoelastic materials. In these materials, the distributed magnetic moments are aligned and have a fixed magnitude. A disturbance of the magnetic moments propagates as what is called spin waves. In elastic ferromagnets, acoustic waves may interact with spin waves, which is referred to as phonon-magnon interaction. Continuum modeling of magnetoelastic interactions in saturated ferromagnets has a few unique and interesting features. In addition to the magnetic body force and couple on the magnetic moments, the short-range interaction among neighboring magnetic moments may be described by distributed surface couples. This leads to a magnetization gradient theory. The angular momenta associated with the magnetic moments need to be considered for spin waves. In addition, the saturation condition on the magnetization vector functions as a constraint mathematically, which has important implications in the constitutive relations of these materials. The book discusses the relatively simple situation of rigid ferromagnets first and then proceeds to elastic ferromagnets. Thermal and dissipative effects as well as interactions with electromagnetic waves are also considered. Structural problems of elastic plates and beams with magnetoelastic interactions are treated as well.Contents: <ul><li>Elasticity</li><li>Electromagnetism</li><li>Piezomagnetic and Magnetostrictive Effects</li><li>Rigid Ferromagnetic Insulators</li><li>Elastic Ferromagnetic Insulators</li><li>Small Ferromagnetoelastic Fields on a Finite Bias</li><li>Antiplane Problems of Ferromagnetoelasticity</li><li>Ferromagnetoelastic Plates</li><li>Elastic Beams with Point Magnets</li><li>Ferromagnetoelastic Conductors</li></ul>Readership: Professors and graduate students specialising in ferromagnetic material elasticity and magnetocelasticity.

Handbook On Engineering Plasticity - Theoretical Plasticity &Amp; Applications Of Plasticity Theory

by David Rees

~~190,15€~~ 171,14€ 10% OFF

 This book brings together, in sixteen chapters, those elements of the mechanics of plasticity most pertinent to engineers. A textbook style has been adopted in which worked examples and exercises illustrate the application of the theoretical material. The latter is provided with appropriate references to journals and other published sources. An appendix contains worked examples to selected exercises.The presentation of the introductory material, the theoretical developments and the use of appropriate experimental data appear within the first four chapters. Therein, appear the classical incremental flow and total deformation theories of plasticity. Comparisons with experimental results are able to discriminate between the two theories. Other fundamental studies of plasticity covered in later chapters include crystal plasticity and viscous behaviour of metallic solids. The intention there in chapters 8 and 11 is to reconcile micro and macro behaviour and to give an account of the time-dependence of deformation. The latter identifies creep strain as an adjunct to more recent plasticity theory where the classical approaches are known to be deficient. The remaining chapters are concerned mainly with applications of plasticity theory and the simplifications that these involve. Useful applications are given with and without work hardening for elastic-plasticity and with an absence of elasticity altogether in the case of a plastic-rigid solid. The topics within which these appear include structures, slip-line fields and finite elements for metal forming, stress waves in bars and plastic instability.The package of topics presented here is broader than other monographs on the theory of plasticity. The unique blend of contents is intended to support syllabuses across a diversity of undergraduate and postgraduate courses including manufacturing, engineering mechanics, strength of materials and applied mathematics.Contents: <ul><li>Stress Analysis</li><li>Strain Analysis</li><li>Yield Criteria</li><li>Non-Hardening Plasticity</li><li>Elastic-Perfect Plasticity</li><li>Slip Line Fields</li><li>Limit Analysis</li><li>Crystal Plasticity</li><li>The Flow Curve</li><li>Plasticity with Hardening</li><li>Viscous Plasticity</li><li>Orthotropic Plasticity</li><li>Plastic Instability</li><li>Stress Waves in Bars</li><li>Production Processes</li><li>Applications of Finite Elements</li><li>Exercises</li></ul>Readership: This book combines the reference material required of a researcher together with the detail in theory and application expected from a student. The references show that the subject of plasticity in its multiple forms has developed within the last century. The topics presented here are primarily of interest to engineers as undergraduates, postgraduates and practitioners in metal working. The topics chosen should also serve to capture a readership from among applied mathematicians, physicists and materials scientists, again at undergraduate, postgraduate and professional academic levels.

The Fluid Dynamic Basis For Actuator Disc And Rotor Theories - Revised Second Edition

55,64€ + 10% CARD

 The first rotor performance predictions were published by Joukowsky exactly 100 years ago. Although a century of research has expanded the knowledge of rotor aerodynamics enormously, and modern computer power and measurement techniques now enable detailed analyses that were previously out of reach, the concepts proposed by Froude, Betz, Joukowsky and Glauert for modelling a rotor in performance calculations are still in use today, albeit with modifications and expansions. This book is the result of the authors curiosity as to whether a return to these models with a combination of mathematics, dedicated computations and wind tunnel experiments could yield more physical insight and answer some of the old questions still waiting to be resolved. Although most of the work included here has been published previously, the book connects the various topics, linking them in a coherent storyline. "The Fluid Dynamic Basis for Actuator Disc and Rotor Theories" was first published in 2018. This Revised Second Edition (2022) will be of interest to those working in all branches of rotor aerodynamics - wind turbines, propellers, ship screws and helicopter rotors. It has been written for proficient students and researchers, and reading it will demand a good knowledge of inviscid (fluid) mechanics. Jens Nørkær Sørensen, DTU, Technical University of Denmark: "(…) a great piece of work, which in a consistent way highlights many of the items that the author has worked on through the years. All in all, an impressive contribution to the classical work on propellers/wind turbines." Peter Schaffarczyk, Kiel University of Applied Sciences, Germany: "(…) a really impressive piece of work!" Carlos Simão Ferreira, Technical University Delft: "This is a timely book for a new generation of rotor aerodynamicists from wind turbines to drones and personal air-vehicles. In a time where fast numerical solutions for aerodynamic design are increasingly available, a clear theoretical and fundamental formulation of the rotor-wake problem will help professionals to evaluate the validity of their design problem. ‘The Fluid Dynamic Basis for Actuator Disc and Rotor Theories’ is a pleasure to read, while the structure, text and figures are just as elegant as the theory presented."

 This book tells the story of the power generation gas turbine from the perspective of one of the leading companies in the field over a period of nearly 100 years, written by an engineer. Especially in times of imminent global economic crises it appears to be worthwhile to reflect on real economic values and technological leadership based on engineering ingenuity and enduring management. Though the original edition of the book was primarily designed as a technical history of the BBC/ABB/Alstom power generation gas turbines, its scope is sufficiently broad to cover general development trends, including parallel competitor activities; correspondingly the title of this reviewed 3rd edition was adapted in a more general sense. A special benefit is the historical breakdown to the gas turbine component level, so that the book actually outlines the development of axial compressors from early beginnings based on Prandtls wing theory, the progress in combustion technology towards extraordinary low emission values and that of axial turbines with special emphasis on early turbine cooling innovations, already in the 1930s a stroke of genius of the BBC Baden engineering team. The sheer length of certain engineering developments over several decades allows interesting historic observations and deductions on inherent business mechanisms, the effects of technology preparations and organisational consequences. A look into the mirror of the past provides revelations on the impact of far-reaching business decisions. In 2017 the book received the prestigious Engineer-Historian Award of the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers).
