Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Analytical formulations are developed to account for the coupled mechanical, electrical, and thermal response of piezoelectric composite materials. The coupled response is captured at the material level through the thermopiezoelectric constitutive equations and leads to the inherent capability to model both the sensory and active responses of piezoelectric materials. A layerwise laminate theory is incorporated to provide more accurate analysis of the displacements, strains, stresses, electric fields, and thermal fields through-the-thickness. Thermal effects which arise from coefficient of thermal expansion mismatch, pyroelectric effects, and temperature dependent material properties are explicitly accounted for in the formulation. Corresponding finite element formulations are developed for piezoelectric beam, plate, and shell elements to provide a more generalized capability for the analysis of arbitrary piezoelectric composite structures. The accuracy of the current formulation is verified with comparisons from published experimental data and other analytical models. Additional numerical studies are also conducted to demonstrate additional capabilities of the formulation to represent the sensory and active behaviors. A future plan of experimental studies is provided to characterize the high temperature dynamic response of piezoelectric composite materials.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Structural health monitoring (SHM) is an emerging technology that can be used to identify, locate and quantify structural damages before failure. Among SHM techniques, Lamb waves have become widely used since they can cover large areas from one single location. Due to the development of various structural simulation programs, there is increasing interest in whether SHM data obtained from the simulation can be verified by experimentation. The objective of this thesis is to determine Lamb wave responses using SHM models in ABAQUS CAE (a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) program). These results are then compared to experimental results and theoretical predictions under isothermal and thermal gradient conditions in order to assess the sensitivity of piezo-generated Lamb wave propagation. Simulations of isothermal tests are conducted over a temperature range of 0-190-F with 100kHz and 300kHz excitation signal frequencies. The changes in temperature-dependent material properties are correlated to measurable differences in the response signal's waveform and propagation speed.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In computational acoustics, standard Finite Element Methods (FEM) face severe limitations when modelling high-frequency wave propagation. As the wavenumber increases, fixed discretization levels lead to rapid growth in pollution error, rendering standard solutions inaccurate.This book addresses this critical challenge by exploring advanced discretization strategies, including high-order polynomial-based Finite Elements, Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) using Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS), and Enriched Finite Elements incorporating oscillatory basis functions (Partition of Unity).Beyond homogeneous media, the text extends these high-order approximation techniques to heterogeneous acoustic environments with spatially varying wave speeds. It details the mathematical foundations of pollution error quantification, the construction of enriched basis functions, and the performance of preconditioned iterative solvers. This book is an essential resource for engineers and researchers seeking to overcome the limitations of classical FEM in industrial acoustic applications. FEM is limited in solving acoustical problems at high frequencies when a fixed level of discretization per wavelength is used, and the numerical error grows rapidly as frequency increases. This issue can be tackled by using high-order approximations in the method to significantly increase the range of frequencies that can be dealt with. This item is printed on demand.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Designing engineering components that make optimal use of materials requires consideration of the nonlinear static and dynamic characteristics associated with both manufacturing and working environments. The modeling of these characteristics can only be done through numerical formulation and simulation, which requires an understanding of both the theoretical background and associated computer solution techniques. By presenting nonlinear solid mechanics, dynamic conservation laws and principles, and the associated finite element techniques together, the authors provide in this second book a unified treatment of the dynamic simulation of nonlinear solids. Alongside a number of worked examples and exercises are user instructions, program descriptions, and examples for two MATLAB computer implementations for which source codes are available online. While this book is designed to complement postgraduate courses, it is also relevant to those in industry requiring an appreciation of the way their computer simulation programs work. The authors give a unified treatment of nonlinear solid mechanics, dynamic conservation laws, and the associated finite element techniques, alongside exercises, examples, and working code, to provide a self-contained introduction to the dynamic simulation of nonlinear solids suitable for beginning masters and PhD students.
