Die Technische Mechanik (TM) ist ein unerlassliches Grundlagenfach und bietet das Stefan Hartmann Rustzeug fur die Planung und Entwicklung komplexer Strukturen wie zum Beispiel Gebaude, Brucken, Fahrzeuge oder Triebwerke. Die TM liefert das theoretische Hintergrundwissen und die Verfahren zur Untersuchung von Kraften und Bewegungen und somit zur Berechnung der Konstruktion, Festigkeit, Lebensdauer und Zuverlassigkeit von Bauteilen. Sie liefert d ...
The book series «Polymer Nano-, Micro- and Macrocomposites» provides complete and comprehensive information on all important aspects of polymer composite research and development, including, but not limited to synthesis, filler modification, modeling, characterization as well as application and commercialization issues. Each book focuses on a particular topic and gives a balanced in-depth overview of the respective subfield of polymer composite ...
The design and construction of progressive glass architecture is explained in detail, the design and detailing of load-bearing glass building elements is explained for practical application. The optimisation of futuristic building envelopes is dealt with in the same detail as the energetic refurbishment of listed facades. Not least, the latest results from respected research institutes offer a reliable overview of the potential of glass construc ...
Building care encompasses everything from maintenance of a building to energy conservation and range of approaches, including the effects on design. A range of approaches to looking after buildings and their users is covered in this book. The rationale and conditions that support them (e.g. PPM – preventative planned maintenance; JIT – just in time) are explained, together with the commercial and environmental imperatives driving new approaches ...
Comprehensively covers the fundamentals of vehicle dynamics with application to automotive mechatronics Presents a number of different design, analysis and implementation considerations related to automobiles, including power requirements, converters, performance, fuel consumption and vehicle dynamic models Covers the dynamics, modeling and control of not only the entire vehicle system, but also of key elements of the vehicle such as transmissio ...
Designed to accompany the new Open University course in Environmental Monitoring and Protection, this is one of four new titles which will equip the reader with the tools to undertake Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs). Used in planning, decision-making and management, EIAs review both the theoretical principles and environmental considerations of engineering and environmental projects to help steer fundamental legislation in the right dire ...
This unique and comprehensive book covers all the recent physical, chemical, and mechanical advancements in encapsulation nanotechnologies. Encapsulation is prevalent in the evolutionary processes of nature, where nature protects the materials from the environment by engulfing them in a suitable shell. These natural processes are well known and have been adopted and applied in the pharmaceutical, food, agricultural, and cosmetics industries. In ...
