The book approaches the basic theory of structures from a different perspective from standard pedagogy. There is consideration of work and energy concepts as fundamental and the equations of statics derived from them. Likewise, these concepts, together with that of the characteristic response, are used in the derivation of beam theory. Plane sections remaining plane is then seen as a particular result for isotropic, homogeneous, prismatic beams. The general theory may still be used where none of these conditions holds, and can even be applied to trusses. It also corrects errors in the theory of beam shear. Special topics discussed include non-uniform torsion, the exact analysis of shear, anisotropy, advanced energy methods, optimum structures, and regular frames. Software provided in the book includes seven general purpose programs for analysis of plane, space frames with rigid or pinned joints, and uses the augmented Gaussian elimination process and dynamic storage techniques.
Approaches the basic theory of elastic beams and frames from a different perspective from standard pedagogyProvides an introduction to more advanced ideas on the theory of structures and contains much additional materialIncludes consideration of work and energy concepts as fundamental and the equations of statistics derived from them

Dynamic Mechanical Analysis for Plastics Engineering (Hardcover): Michael Sepe Dynamic Mechanical Analysis for Plastics Engineering (Hardcover)
Michael Sepe
R6,618 Discovery Miles 66 180 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

As plastics are being used more extensively in high-performance markets, it is imperative that designers and engineers understand all aspects of polymer behavior over an extended service life. Dynamic Mechanical Analysis for Plastics Engineering describes practical uses for DMA information. All of the information for 120 families of thermoplastics is based on independent test data conducted exclusively for this product and is not available through any other source. This PDL addition shows how to use the DMA data to predict, at various temperatures, each materials estimated service life and potential for failure. This book explains the correlation between time and temperature-dependence and illustrates how time-dependent responses such as creep and stress relaxation affect the practical utility of different materials. Basic polymer structures are discussed and test results show how these structural details can be detected and understood.

The reader learns to understand the assumptions and derivations of different structural members. Furthermore, she/he learns to critically evaluate possibilities and limitations of the finite difference method. Additional comprehensive mathematical descriptions, which solely result from advanced illustrations for two- or three-dimensional problems, are omitted. Hence, the mathematical description largely remains simple and clear.

Electrocorrosion and Protection of Metals - General Approach with Particular Consideration to Electrochemical Plants... Electrocorrosion and Protection of Metals - General Approach with Particular Consideration to Electrochemical Plants (Hardcover)
Joseph Riskin
R3,008 Discovery Miles 30 080 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Corrosion by external currents (electrocorrosion) of metallic constructions has to be regarded as a strongest factor of aggressiveness in conductive aggressive environments. Corrosion by stray currents of underground and underwater metal constructions was comprehensively and profoundly studied long ago and it is considered in this book only in the form of a review. The primary attention is focused on corrosion by external anodic (mainly) and cathodic currents of metal constructions in environments of high aggressiveness typical for electrochemical plants of chemical and non-ferrous metallurgical brunches of industry, where penetration of the external currents (leakage currents) from the electrolytic baths to the metal constructions is unavoidable.
Structural metals selected for the media of a high aggressiveness are initially in a passive state that provides their corrosion resistance at the absence of the attack by external currents. However, under the attack by leakage current the metals are brought out of the boundaries of their passive field and undergo intensive corrosion damage.
A new approach to the problem of electrocorrosion protection of the passive structural metals which is considered in this book consists in keeping the metals attacked by external currents in the boundaries of their passive field. The systems, developed in accordance with this approach, are based on modification of existing and on elaboration of new methods and means of electrocorrosion protection. These systems take into account corrosion and electrochemical characteristics of the aggressive media (redox potential, conductivity etc.) and of the passive metal (corrosion and activation potentials, current density in a passive state etc) as well as sizes and distribution character of the external currents.
Analysis of leakage current distribution in electrochemical plants, character of their influence, methods of estimation of corrosion stability of metallic structures in the field of external currents and a lot of concrete examples of successful introducing of the developed corrosion protection systems in many operating plants of chemical and non ferrous metallurgical branches of industry are given.
Features/ Benefits
New approach to the problem of protection from electrocorrosion, taking into account the passive state of the metal in aggressive media
This approach allows concentrating on the purpose of keeping the metal in the boundaries of its passive field which opens principally new ways to effective metals protection from electrocorrosion.
Modifications of well known and principally new developed methods and means of electrocorrosion protection are presented. The methods do not require power sources and in most cases do not need significant metal consumption. The expenditure for the maintenance of these methods is minimal.
The set of the developed methods and means of metals protection from electrocorrosion provides engineers, particularly, the personnel of electrochemical plants in chemical and non-ferrous metallurgic branches of industry with necessary accessible and low cost solutions of protection from electrocorrosion of metallic equipment at the stages of design and of operation.
New methods of estimation the stability of metallic structures in the field of external current taking into account the size of external current, accessibleparameters and electrochemical characteristics of the metal, of the structures and of the aggressive environment.
These methods allow to prevent electrocorrosion damage at the stage of design and to estimate the danger of corrosion attack by external currents of metallic piping and equipment operating in the zones of influence of external currents.
Improved and new materials for stable anodes and cathodes for protection of metallic structures against corrosion by external anodic and cathodic currents, respectively.
These data enlarge the possibilities of metals protection from electrocorrosion and make this protection more accessible and less expensive.
Using sectionalization as method of effective protection of passive metals with high activation potential values in the field of external currents.
By using equation for calculation a permissible section length, for example, for titanium piping in acid sulfate solution, it is possible to attain by sectionalization a complete piping protection from electrocorrosion without applying any additional means for protection.
Data on the influence of structural features of metals (weld seams, crevices etc) in the field of external anodic and cathodic currents on the values of the activation protection.
These data must be taken into account when corrosion stability of a metallic structure is estimated at the stages of design and of operation in the field of external current.
Known and new data on the values and distribution of leakage currents, on the methods and means of their reducing, on the action character of the external anodic and cathodic currents on different structural metals in various aggressiveenvironment, on estimation methods of corrosion stability of metallic structures in the field of external current and on the methods and means of their protection from electrocorrosion are systematized in the book.
Systematized data on electrocorrosion and protection of metals, especially in electrochemical plants allow using the book as a guide for corrosion engineers end researchers and for the personnel maintaining the equipment of all kinds of electrochemical plants to analyze the corrosion state of the metallic equipment and to prevent its electrocorrosion.
