This book is the first book on this technique; it describes the theory of DPSM in detail and covers its applications in ultrasonic, magnetic, electrostatic and electromagnetic problems in engineering. For the convenience of the users, the detailed theory of DPSM and its applications in different engineering fields are published here in one book making it easy to acquire a unified knowledge on DPSM.

Written by authors who are well-known in the field of engineering, Int roductory Finite Element Method, an expanded version of the Elementary Finite Element Method published in 1979, represents the first work to deal with both structural analysis and flow problems at an elementary level. It not only appeals to undergraduate and beginning graduate en gineering students, but to those outside the field and practitioners a s well. Using this text, students will be able to form the functional and construct the element and global equations for a wide range of fie ld problems. It can easily be used...

Reviews bedrock concepts, such as the theory of elasticity and continuum mechanics, while outlining essential topics related to fracture mechanics. With practice exercises, this work provides practical and useful resources for introductory fracture mechanics. It is suitable for professors and students new to the field of fracture mechanics.

Most books on nondestructive evaluation (NDE) focus either on the theoretical background or on advanced applications. Bridging the gap between the two, Ultrasonic and Electromagnetic NDE for Structure and Material Characterization: Engineering and Biomedical Applications brings together the principles, equations, and applications of ultrasonic and electromagnetic NDE in a single, authoritative resource. This is also one of the first books to incorporate a number of popular NDE methods based on electromagnetic techniques.

Combines Engineering and...
