Foundations of Shape-Memory Materials and Structures. Modeling and Numerics

Meer over het boek

This book covers the fundamentals of crystalline shape memory materials and their structures, offering a self-contained introduction for newcomers. It is divided into four parts: basic concepts of mechanics, mechanical behavior of structural elements, theoretical models of shape-memory materials, and the behavior of structures made from these materials. It includes numerical examples and modern modeling techniques relevant to engineering.
