About this title

Synopsis

A new emerging area focusing on the interaction of active materials, sensors, actuators, controls, electronics, and structures with numerous potential applications is being investigated at various institutions and laboratories world-wide with an ever-increasing sophistication of experiment, computation, modelling and analysis. This book offers a collection of contributions from these research centres that represent the present state-of-the-art and a sampling of exciting research areas in the study of active structures, devices and systems, being on the cutting edge of these investigations. The topics covered include nonlinear piezothermoelasticity of shells, nonlinear modelling of piezoelectric fibres, actuation using shape memory alloys, damage identifications and controls, piezoelectric electrostrictive and magnetostrictive actuators, electrorheological and magnetorheological materials, active damping layers, self-sensing actuations, fibre optical sensors, active polyelectrolyte gels, impedance modelling, programmable structures, deployable structures, embedded antennas, and active shunt circuits. Applications are ranging from micro electromechanical systems to large space structures, and many others in between, such as intelligent machines, adaptive structures, mechatronic systems, smart rotor-craft and robots. A comprehensive picture of these complex structronic systems and other aspects is presented in the book by researchers that are experts in each of these domains, giving up-to-date accounts of the present state of the field in all these aspects.

Review

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
