This book contains 71 papers presented at the symposium on "Recent
Advances in Experimental Mechanics" which was organized in honor of
Professor Isaac M. Daniel. The symposium took place at Virginia
Polytechnic Institute and State University on th June 23-28, 2002,
in conjunction with the 14 US National Congress of Applied
Mechanics. The book is a tribute to Isaac Daniel, a pioneer of
experimental mechanics and composite materials, in recognition of
his continuous, original, diversified and outstanding contributions
for half a century. The book consists of invited papers written by
leading experts in the field. It contains original contributions
concerning the latest developments in experimental mechanics. It
covers a wide range of subjects, including optical methods of
stress analysis (photoelasticity, moire, etc.), composite
materials, sandwich construction, fracture mechanics, fatigue and
damage, nondestructive evaluation, dynamic problems, fiber optic
sensors, speckle metrology, digital image processing,
nanotechnology, neutron diffraction and synchrotron radiation
methods. The papers are arranged in the following nine sections:
Mechanical characterization of material behavior, composite
materials, fracture and fatigue, optical methods, n- destructive
evaluation, neutron diffraction and synchrotron radiation methods,
hybrid methods, composite structures, and structural testing and
analysis.
