Summary of Viscoelastic Solids (Crc Mechanical Engineering Series)
Viscoelastic Solids covers the mathematical theory of viscoelasticity and physical insights, causal mechanisms, and practical applications. The book: o presents a development of the theory, addressing both transient and dynamic aspects as well as emphasizing linear viscoelasticity o synthesizes the structure of the theory with the aim of developing physical insight o illustrates the methods for the solution of stress analysis problems in viscoelastic objects o explores experimental methods for the characterization of viscoelastic materials o describes the phenomenology of viscoelasticity in a variety of materials, including polymers, metals, high damping alloys, rock, piezoelectric materials, cellular solids, dense composite materials, and biological materials o analyzes high damping and extremely low damping o provides the theory of viscoelastic composite materials, including examples of various types of structure and the relationships between structure and mechanical properties o contains examples on the use of viscoelastic materials in preventing and alleviating human suffering Viscoelastic Solids also demonstrates the use of viscoelasticity for diverse applications, such as earplugs, gaskets, computer disks, satellite stability, medical diagnosis, injury prevention, vibration abatement, tire performance, sports, spacecraft explosions, and music.Engineering Books
