Description for Experimental Mechanics of Solids
Hardcover. Experimental solid mechanics is the study of materials to determine their physical properties. This study might include performing a stress analysis or measuring the extent of displacement, shape, strain and stress which a material suffers under controlled conditions. Num Pages: 776 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TGMD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 247 x 172 x 38. Weight in Grams: 1258.
Experimental solid mechanics is the study of materials to determine their physical properties. This study might include performing a stress analysis or measuring the extent of displacement, shape, strain and stress which a material suffers under controlled conditions. In the last few years there have been remarkable developments in experimental techniques that measure shape, displacement and strains and these sorts of experiments are increasingly conducted using computational techniques.
