Shock Waves @ Marseille IV Shock Structure and Kinematics, Blast Waves and Detonations


Free Download Shock Waves @ Marseille IV: Shock Structure and Kinematics, Blast Waves and Detonations By L. F. Henderson (auth.), Professor Dr. Raymond Brun, Professor Dr. Lucien Z. Dumitrescu (eds.)
1995 | 505 Pages | ISBN: 364279534X | PDF | 23 MB
This volume is devoted to the problems directly connected to the propagation of shock waves, blast waves and detonations and their interaction with various ctructures, gaseous, liquid or solid. Shock focusing is the first subject whereas regular or Mach reflection processes, shock wave refraction and diffraction on diverse configurations such as wedge, cone, or corner, represent central themes for many following papers. The well-known problem of shock-interface interaction still constitutes an attractive subject and a number of papers are devoted to shock-jet, shock-vortex, and shock-layer interactions. Explosions and blast waves studies are well represented, and detonation phenomena in gaseous, solid or multiphasic media are largely treated. The kinetic structure of shock itself is also analyzed.Scientists working in the fields of shock-structure interaction will be interested by the number and level of corresponding papers, and engineers may be attracted by the multiple applied aspects of shock, blast and detonation propagation.

The Theory of Machines is an important subject to mechanical engineering students of both bachelor’s and diploma level. One has to understand the basics of kinematics and dynamics of machines before designing and manufacturing any component. The subject material is presented in such a way that an average student can easily understand the concepts. The graphical methods of analysis are given preference over analytical wherever possible though they lack in accuracy but can be performed quickly. Particular care has been taken to draw diagrams to scale correctly. The results are compared with analytical ones wherever possible.

Computational Kinematics Proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Computational Kinematics (CK2013)


Free Download Computational Kinematics: Proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Computational Kinematics (CK2013) By Leila Notash (auth.), Federico Thomas, Alba Perez Gracia (eds.)
2014 | 409 Pages | ISBN: 9400772130 | PDF | 11 MB
Computational kinematics is an enthralling area of science with a rich spectrum of problems at the junction of mechanics, robotics, computer science, mathematics, and computer graphics. The covered topics include design and optimization of cable-driven robots, analysis of parallel manipulators, motion planning, numerical methods for mechanism calibration and optimization, geometric approaches to mechanism analysis and design, synthesis of mechanisms, kinematical issues in biomechanics, construction of novel mechanical devices, as well as detection and treatment of singularities. The results should be of interest for practicing and research engineers as well as Ph.D. students from the fields of mechanical and electrical engineering, computer science, and computer graphics.
