Non-linear behaviour of water waves has recently drawn much attention of scientists and engineers in the fields of oceanography, applied mathematics, coastal engineering, ocean engineering, naval architecture, and others.
A special survey of the extensive field of Constitutive Laws is given in 11 lectures, divided into three parts: Thermodynamics of Materials, Stochastic Processes and Material Behaviour, Constitutive Relations for Simple Fluids and Microphysics of Solids.
Qualifikation wird beim Einsatz computerisierter Betriebsmittel zwar zunehmend als betrieblicher und sozialer Schlüsselfaktor erkannt; die erforderlichen Konsequenzen wurden in der betrieblichen Praxis und in der wissenschaftlichen Pädagogik bisher aber nur sehr bedingt gezogen.
The last two decades have witnessed an intensifying effort in learning how to manage flow turbulence: it has in fact now become one of the most challenging and prized techno- logical goals in fluid dynamics.
Für den Aufbau komplexer Modelle auf dem Gebiet der Produktionssysteme ist es bedeutsam, daß die Komponenten für Fertigung, Montage und Lagerung durch ein sehr leistungsfähiges und dennoch sehr flexibles Transportsystem verbunden werden können.
In opto-electronics and microwave technology, new research results are translated into technological developments and applications at a breathtaking pace.
The present volume contains edited versions of the communications presented at an International Workshop on "e;Expert Systems in Production Engineering"e;, held in Spa, Belgium, in 1986.
The Boundary Element Method has now become a powerful tool of engineering analysis and is routinely applied for the solution of elastostatics and potential problems.
General Applications of BEM to electromagnetic problems are comparatively new although the method is ideally suited to solve these problems, which usually involve unbounded domains.
Continuing the tradition of the IUTAM Symposia TRANSSONICA, this review of the numerical simulation and physical modelling of transonic flows presents new developments in the fields of computational and experimental aerodynamics.
The International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) initiated and sponsored an International Symposium on Nonlinear Dynamics in Engineering Systems held in 1989 in Stuttgart, FRG.
Mit dem Vordringen EDV-gestützter, integrierter Informationssysteme kommt einer anforderungsgerechten Betriebsdatenerfassung (BDE) in allen Produktionsbereichen eine zentrale Bedeutung zu.
Die vielerorts zu hörende und oft publizierte Aussage "Mehrkosten durch Variantenvielfalt" beherrscht seit langem die Diskussion um weitere Verbesserungen des betrieblichen Kostenwesens.
In diesem Band werden alternative Automatisierungstechnologien für die vollautomatische Komplettmontage von Kabelbäumen in Schneidklemmtechnik mit Industrierobotern entwickelt.
Solange es technisch noch nicht möglich ist, die "Losgröße Eins" zu realisieren, müssen in Produktionsbetrieben die Lagerbestände durch geeignete Losbildung weiterhin möglichst gering gehalten werden.
Thirty years ago pattern recognition was dominated by the learning machine concept: that one could automate the process of going from the raw data to a classifier.
In the past several years, it has become apparent that computing will soon achieve a status within science and engineering to the classical scientific methods of laboratory experiment and theoretical analysis.
The IUTAM Symposium on Boundary-Layer Separation, suggested by the UK National Committee of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics and supported by the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, was held at University College London on August 26-28, 1986.
The IUTAM Symposium on Macro- and Micro-Mechanics of High Velocity Deformation and Fracture (MMMHVDF) (August 12 - 15, 1985) was held at Science Council of Japan, under the sponsor- ship of IUTAM, Science Council of Japan, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, The Commemorative Association for the Japan World Exposition (1970), and The Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences.
