Plate structures are used in almost every area of engineering, including aerospace and naval architecture, civil engineering, and electronics. These structures have diverse geometries and have to withstand a wide range of loading conditions. This book provides the theoretical foundations of the theories of plates manufactured from various materials, outlines and illustrates the methods used for the analysis of these structures, and emphasizes designs and solution techniques available to an engineer. The book is written for engineers working in industry, graduate students at aerospace,...

As a growing range of applications shift to the cloud, developers face the task of creating reliable, fault-tolerant and secure distributed computing systems and networks. This Guide to Reliable Distributed Systems describes the key concepts, principles and implementation options for creating high-assurance cloud computing solutions. In combination with Birman's Isis² software platform, an open-source library available for free download from Cornell, the text offers a practical path to success in this vital emerging area.

The guide starts with a broad technical...

The central theme of this study is Artin's braid group and the many ways that the notion of a braid has proved to be important in low-dimensional topology.

In Chapter 1 the author is concerned with the concept of a braid as a group of motions of points in a manifold. She studies structural and algebraic properties of the braid groups of two manifolds, and derives systems of defining relations for the braid groups of the plane and sphere. In Chapter 2 she focuses on the connections between the classical braid group and the classical knot problem. After reviewing basic results she...

The main topics reflect the fields of mathematics in which Professor O.A. Ladyzhenskaya obtained her most influential results.

One of the main topics considered in the volume is the Navier-Stokes equations. This subject is investigated in many different directions. In particular, the existence and uniqueness results are obtained for the Navier-Stokes equations in spaces of low regularity. A sufficient condition for the regularity of solutions to the evolution Navier-Stokes equations in the three-dimensional case is derived and the stabilization of a solution to the Navier-Stokes...
