Mechanics of Active Materials and Structures
About this book
Mechanics of Active Materials and Structures offers a wide range of application-based and practical considerations of state-of-the-art smart and active materials. Active materials are artificial structures that are designed to provide distinctive physical properties. A fascinating exploration of the analytical and numerical solution procedures can be found in this comprehensive book, and each chapter provides and embraces detailed information on crucial characteristics of metamaterials and their response to external factors.
Key Features:
- Presents a wide range of analytical and numerical solution procedures
- Demonstrates a set of illustrations to discuss static and dynamic analysis
- Magnifies the effect of different parameters and external factors on the mechanics of active materials
- Discusses the stability of active materials and structures subjected to the various loads
- Explores the recent developments in the field of active materials
This is essential reading for graduate students interested in smart materials, university instructors who teach materials courses, materials scientists and engineers in academia, and civil and mechanical engineers.
