- The book provides the reader with the knowledge, tools, and methods to understand the phenomenon of hysteresis in porous materials.<br><br> As many challenges have been met only recently, the book summarizes the research results usually found only scattered in the literature, connecting knowledge from traditionally separated research fields to provide a better understanding of the physical phenomena of coupled elastic-fluid systems.<br><br> The result is an invaluable self-contained reference book for materials scientists, civil, mechanical and construction engineers concerned with development and maintenance of structures made of porous materials.
- Kurztext
- The book provides the reader with the knowledge, tools, and methods to understand the phenomenon of hysteresis in porous materials. As many challenges have been met only recently, the book summarizes the research results usually found only scattered in the literature, connecting knowledge from traditionally separated research fields to provide a better understanding of the physical phenomena of coupled elastic-fluid systems. The result is an invaluable self-contained reference book for materials scientists, civil, mechanical and construction engineers concerned with development and maintenance of structures made of porous materials.
- Autorenportrait
- Dr H. Alicia Kim is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Bath, UK and an affiliate at the Earth and Environmental Sciences Division, Los Alamos National Laboratory. She received her PhD degree in Aeronautical Engineering, University of Sydney, Australia in 2001. Her research expertise includes numerical methods of finite element formulation and their applications in nonlinear hysteretic materials and optimisation of aerospace structures. She has authored more than 12 international publications.<br><br> Professor Robert Guyer received his PhD degree from Cornell University in 1966. He is the author of more than 200 refereed journal articles. His area of expertise includes transport in disordered systems, quantum crystals, nonlinear elasticity, granular media as well as time reversal methods in geophysics. In addition to his career at the University of Massachusetts (Amherst) he has had appointments at Research Center Julich, Harvard, U of Toronto, U of Florida, Cornell, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and in several industrial research labs.<br>
