Book Synopsis IUTAM Symposium on Unilateral Multibody Contacts by : F. Pfeiffer
Download or read book IUTAM Symposium on Unilateral Multibody Contacts written by F. Pfeiffer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multibody dynamics started with the ideas of Jacob and Daniel Bernoul li and later on with d'Alembert's principle. In establishing a solution for the problem of the center of oscillation for a two-mass-pendulum Jacob Ber noulli spoke about balancing the profit-and-Ioss account with respect to the motion of the two masses. Daniel Bernoulli extended these ideas to a chain pendulum and called forces not contributing to the motion "lost forces", thus being already very close to d'Alembert's principle. D'Alembert considered a "system of bodies, which are interconnected in some arbitrary way. " He suggested separating the motion into two parts, one moving, the other being at rest. In modern terms, or at least in terms being applied in engineering mechanics, this means that the forces acting on a system of bodies are split into active and passive forces. Active forces generate motion, passive forces do not; they are a result of constraints. This interpretation of d'Alembert's principle is due to Lagrange and up to now has been the basis of multi body dynamics (D' Alembert, Traite de Dynamique, 1743; Lagrange, Mecanique Analytique, 1811). Thus, multibody dynamics started in France. During the nineteenth century there were few activities in the multi body field even though industry offered plenty of possible applications and famous re presentatives of mechanics were aware of the problems related to multibody dynamics. Poisson in his "Traite de Mecanique" (Paris 1833) gave an im pressive description of these problems, including impacts and friction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains 44 papers presented at the Third Contact Mechanics International Symposium (CMIS 2001) held in Praia da Consola9ao, Peniche (portugal), June 17-21,2001. This Symposium was the direct continuation of the first two CMIS held in Lausanne (1992) and in Carry-Le-Rouet (1994). Other related meetings, in what concerns scientific topics and participants, took place in the nineties at La Grande Motte (1990), Vadstena (1996), Ferrara (1997), Munich (1998) and Grenoble (1999). The Symposium aimed at gathering researchers with interests in a wide range of topics in theoretical, computational and experimental contact mechanics. The call for papers mentioned topics in tribology, mathematical formulations and analysis, numerical methods in non-smooth mechanics, impact problems, instabilities and technological problems. The total number of participants was 102, from Universities and Research Institutes of 19 countries. The Scientific Committee reviewed 102 submitted abstracts, and the final program consisted of 6 main lectures, 43 oral communications and 36 poster presentations (see Appendix A). The papers in this book correspond to almost all the main lectures and oral communications, and they are assembled in 5 chapters: • Dynamics and Impact • Instabilities, Oscillations and Waves • Contact Models, Results and Applications • Mathematical Analysis • Numerical Methods. We thank all the authors for their valuable contributions to this volume. We are indebted to the members of the Scientific Committee for their help in refereeing the submitted abstracts and manuscripts. We also thank the Series editor, Prof. Graham Gladwell, for his assistance in the revision process.
Book Synopsis Transient Effects in Friction by : Andreas Goedecke
Download or read book Transient Effects in Friction written by Andreas Goedecke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transient friction effects determine the behavior of a wide class of mechatronic systems. Classic examples are squealing brakes, stiction in robotic arms, or stick-slip in linear drives. To properly design and understand mechatronic systems of this type, good quantitative models of transient friction effects are of primary interest. The theory developed in this book approaches this problem bottom-up, by deriving the behavior of macroscopic friction surfaces from the microscopic surface physics. The model is based on two assumptions: First, rough surfaces are inherently fractal, exhibiting roughness on a wide range of scales. Second, transient friction effects are caused by creep enlargement of the real area of contact between two bodies. This work demonstrates the results of extensive Finite Element analyses of the creep behavior of surface asperities, and proposes a generalized multi-scale area iteration for calculating the time-dependent real contact between two bodies. The toolset is then demonstrated both for the reproduction of a variety of experimental results on transient friction as well as for system simulations of two example systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents 30 of the 62 papers delivered at an August 1998 international symposium in Boston on the tribology of polymeric materials at both the macroscopic and microscopic scales. They look at some problems that have arisen as the equipment and experimental techniques for microscopic analysis have outdistanced the ability of scientists to model and interpret the results. The overall themes are contact mechanics of polymeric materials, micromechanics and microtribology, surface microstructures of various polymers, and industrial applications. Among the specific topics are the role of interfacial slippage in adhesive release, the experimental study of the friction regimes on viscoelastic materials, sparse coatings by the disperse adsorption of cylindrical brushes, and the effect of surface texture on the friction of automotive interior plastics.

Book Synopsis Workshop on Molecular Dynamics on Parallel Computers by : Rdiger Esser
Download or read book Workshop on Molecular Dynamics on Parallel Computers written by Rdiger Esser and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molecular dynamics is a well-established technique for simulating complex many-particle systems in many areas of physics, chemistry, and astrophysics. The huge computational requirements for simulations of large systems, especially with long-range forces, demand the use of massively parallel computers. Designing efficient algorithms for these problems is a highly non-trivial task. This book contains the invited talks and abstracts presented at a conference by more than 100 researchers from various fields: computer science, solid state physics, high energy physics, polymers, biochemistry, granular materials and astrophysics. Most of the contributions have been written by users of massively parallel computers and deal with practical issues, but there are also contributions tackling more fundamental algorithmic problems.
Book Synopsis Physics of Dry Granular Media by : H.J. Herrmann
Download or read book Physics of Dry Granular Media written by H.J. Herrmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dry granular materials, such as sand, sugar and powders, can be poured into a container like a liquid and can also form a pile, resisting gravity like a solid, which is why they can be regarded as a fourth state of matter, neither solid nor liquid. This book focuses on defining the physics of dry granular media in a systematic way, providing a collection of articles written by recognised experts. The physics of this field is new and full of challenges, but many questions (such as kinetic theories, plasticity, continuum and discrete modelling) also require the strong participation of mechanical and chemical engineers, soil mechanists, geologists and astrophysicists. The book gathers into a single volume the relevant concepts from all these disciplines, enabling the reader to gain a rapid understanding of the foundations, as well as the open questions, of the physics of granular materials. The contributors have been chosen particularly for their ability to explain new concepts, making the book attractive to students or researchers contemplating a foray into the field. The breadth of the treatment, on the other hand, makes the book a useful reference for scientists who are already experienced in the subject.
