This book collects invited lectures presented at the AMAS & ECCOMAS Workshop/Thematic Conference SMART'03 on Smart Materials and Structures. The conference was held in Jadwisin, Poland near Warsaw, 2-5 September 2003. It was organized by the Advanced Materials and Structures (AMAS) Centre of Excellence at the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research (IFTR) in Warsaw and ECCOMAS - the European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and SMART-TECH Centre at IFTR. The goal of the workshop was to bring together and consolidate the community of Smart Materials and...

III European Conference on Computational Mechanics: Solids, Structures and Coupled Problem in Engineering

Computational Mechanics in Solid, Structures and Coupled Problems in Engineering is today a mature science with applications to major industrial projects. This book contains the edited version of the Abstracts of Plenary and Keynote Lectures and Papers, and a companion CD-ROM with the full-length papers, presented at the III European Conference on Computational Mechanics: Solids, Structures and Coupled Problems in Engineering (ECCM-2006), held in the National Laboratory...

Computational Mechanics in solids, structures and coupled problems in engineering is today a mature science with applications to major industrial designs. This book reflects the state of art and it is written by some of the world leading authorities in this field, addressing such topics as: design and topology optimisation, inverse engineering, multibody dynamics, non-linear and railway dynamics, non-linear and textile composites, sandwich structures, uncertainty and reliability of structures, micromechanics of biological materials, computational geometry, multiscale strategies, discrete...
