Synopsis

This book contains edited versions of the most relevant papers presented at the Ninth International Conference on Computational Methods and Experimental Measurements, which was held in Sorrento, Italy, April 27-29, 1999. The book reviews state-of-the-art developments in the interaction between numerical methods and experimental measurements.

In spite of the recent advances in computational techniques that has resulted from the enormous increase in the efficiency of computers, problems still exist which cannot be solved without recourse to experiment. In addition, although the computer models have been increasingly successful in simulating a wide range of engineering problems, it is essential that the results of these models be validated and verified against experiment.

The 61 contributions included in the book do just that and are divided into the following eight topics: Experimental Versus Analytical or Numerical Models; Interaction of Computer Codes and Experimental Models; Material Characterization Through Numerical Models and Experiments; Fluid Dynamics/Fluid Flow; Heat Transfer; Structural Problems and Stress Analysis; Vibrations; Material Problems and Identification; Computational Methods.
