Abstract:
The automotive industry is undergoing a technological revolution unparalleled since its infancy. Increased foreign competition, particularly in terms of product cost, has created a need for technological innovation both in automotive products and in automotive manufacturing and assembly processes. Applied mechanics research has become a critical element in many of the areas which can promote improved products and process efficiency. Several major research programs which are underway at General Motors will be reviewed and used to motivate the discussion of important applied mechanics problems. Research examples will include automated vehicle design technology, advanced materials, and mechanics of manufacturing processes. Suggested research spans the entire range of the applied mechanics field, from basic theory to numerical applications. Experimental research is as vital to further progress as is analytical research. Considerably more emphasis should be given to relating mechanical performance of the finished product to its fabrication.

Abstract:
Biomechanics is closely related to engineering, because it often uses traditional engineering sciences to analyze biological systems. Some simple applications of Newtonian mechanics and/or materials sciences can supply correct approximations to the mechanics of many biological systems. Applied mechanics, most notably mechanical engineering disciplines such as continuum mechanics, mechanism analysis, structural analysis, kinematics and dynamics play prominent roles in the study of biomechanics. Usually biological systems are much more complex than man-built systems. Numerical methods are hence applied in almost every biomechanical study. Research is done in an iterative process of hypothesis and verification, including several steps of modeling, computer simulation and experimental measurements. Prosthetics and orthotics are clinical disciplines that deal with artificial limbs (prostheses) for people with amputations and supportive devices (orthoses) for people with musculoskeletal weakness or neurological disorders and some disability person. The development of prosthetics and orthotics disciplines is depend on development of science and engineering. The understanding of this multidiscipline field is important the advancement in this field. In this session i will overview the current development in prosthetics and orthotics field, expl ain a brief survey on its method, and discuss perspective for future trend and development.

Abstract:
This article discusses various research works by engineering teams working on computer models that help explain the evolutionary dynamics of bone cancer. In order to investigate biological systems with a mechanical engineering approach, medical research teams are creating computerized mathematical models that have the potential to explain the mechanics of cancer. Researchers have found that mechanical signals can influence cancer cell migration, growth, and differentiation. Engineering models, such as the one simulating cancer immunotherapy, not only are visually striking, but also can help researchers better understand how cells respond to potential treatments. Researchers at the Center of Applied Molecular Medicine at the University of Southern California have developed two open source 3D simulation packages: BioFVM, which simulates diffusion of dozens of substrates in 3D tissues, and PhysiCell, which simulates multicellular systems in 3-D tissues. According to experts, differences between experimental information and model-returned information can also be resolved to better understand how metastasis works and, perhaps, fine-tune models.

Liquids and gases are referred to as fluids. Fluid mechanics is a branch of mechanics, which studies the fluid stationary and moving mechanical laws and its application in engineering technology. Fluid is very extensively applied in the project. Such as: heating ventilation and gas engineering, water supply and drainage engineering, construction, civil engineering, municipal engineering, urban flood control engineering. They all take fluid as the working medium, and effectively organize it through various physical effects of the fluid. Therefore, it is particularly important to well learn hydrodynamics.

Full text
Abstract:
Engineering practice requires the use of structures containing identical components or parts, which are useful from several points of view: less information is needed to describe the system, design is made quicker and easier, components are made faster than a complex assembly, and finally the time to achieve the structure and the cost of manufacturing decreases. Additionally, the subsequent maintenance of the system becomes easier and cheaper. This Special Issue is dedicated to this kind of mechanical structure, describing the properties and methods of analysis of these structures. Discrete or continuous structures in static and dynamic cases are considered. Theoretical models, mathematical methods, and numerical analysis of the systems, such as the finite element method and experimental methods, are expected to be used in the research. Such applications can be used in most engineering fields including machine building, automotive, aerospace, and civil engineering.

Abstract:
The use of numerical simulations has been widespread in many engineering fields and related areas. One of the main numerical methods used in modeling and simulations is the finite element method (FEM). Despite its wide dissemination, especially in mechanical and civil engineering, FEM has high potential to be applied in other areas, such as in agricultural engineering. This paper aims to present a review of the FEM applications in three agricultural engineering areas. This research is focused on agricultural mechanization, agricultural product processing and soil mechanics, since these are agricultural engineering areas with highest number of publications using FEM. As result, it is expected greater FEM dissemination in other agricultural engineering areas. In addition, modeling and simulation techniques can be widely used in order to represent the increasing behavior of agricultural machinery and products from real physical systems.

Full text
Abstract:
This review article deals with the regularization of the boundary element formulations for solution of boundary value problems of continuum mechanics. These formulations may be singular owing to the use of two-point singular fundamental solutions. When the physical interpretation is irrelevant for this topic of computational mechanics, we consider various mechanical problems simultaneously within particular sections selected according to the main topic. In spite of such a structure of the paper, applications of the regularization techniques to many mechanical problems are described. There are distinguished two main groups of regularization techniques according to their application to singular formulations either before or after the discretization. Further subclassification of each group is made with respect to basic principles employed in individual regularization techniques. This paper summarizes the substances of the regularization procedures which are illustrated on the boundary element formulation for a scalar potential field. We discuss the regularizations of both the strongly singular and hypersingular integrals, occurring in the boundary integral equations, as well as those of nearly singular and nearly hypersingular integrals arising when the source point is near the integration element (as compared to its size) but not on this element. The possible dimensional inconsistency (or scale dependence of results) of the regularization after discretization is pointed out. Finally, we discuss the numerical approximations in various boundary element formulations, as well as the implementations of solutions of some problems for which derivative boundary integral equations are required.

Abstract:
This paper is concerned with the teaching of fluid mechanics and heat transfer on courses for the industrial engineer degree at the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (Spain). In order to improve the engineering education, a pedagogical method that involves project-based learning, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), was applied. The project-based learning works well for mechanical engineering education, since it prepares students for their later professional training. The courses combined applied and advanced concepts of fluid mechanics with the basic numerical aspects of CFD, including validation of the results obtained. In this approach, the physical understanding of practical problems of fluid mechanics and heat transfer played an important role. Satisfactory numerical results were obtained by using both Phoenics and Fluent finite-volume codes. Some cases were solved using the well known Matlab software. Comparisons were made between the results obtained by analytical solutions (if any) with those reached by CFD general-purpose codes and with those obtained by Matlab. This system provides engineering students with a solid comprehension of several aspects of thermal and fluids engineering.

Abstract:
This paper reports pedagogical experiences and educational techniques in the field of Mechanics of Structures (Mechanical Engineering degree), resorting to computational tools. Several aspects are addressed, covering CAD (Computer-Aided Design) modelling systems to CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) solutions, in terms of analysis and validation of mechanical resistance calculations. Therefore, structural mechanics fundamental concepts and mechanics of materials are also addressed. Particular focus is given on the development of curricula components related to Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing. Doing so, three-dimensional structural modelling is applied to study the behaviour in selected simple case-studies where an external load is applied and the corresponding deflections are evaluated. Then, analytical and numerical analyses are performed and compared. During classes, patent aversion to solve analytical problems was clearly observed on the part of the students once calculus knowledge was required. The typical trend in engineering students, skipping the manual analytical methodology to solve a problem in order to go straight to numerical simulations via commercial Finite Element (FE) codes, was observed. The main focus of this work is, therefore, to determine the pedagogical effects of allying the analytical procedures and virtual simulators. It was possible to confirm the beneficial aspects of such methodology, considering that the regular engineering student has already a scientific basis on calculus and analytical process. Such knowledge will support mechanical project decisions, from model development to the analysis, and a sounding background to perform criticism of the results provided by the software.

Abstract:
When considering methods for joining materials, there are many advantages that engineering adhesives can offer, compared to the more traditional methods of joining such as bolting, brazing, welding, mechanical fasteners, etc. The advantages and disadvantages of using engineering adhesives are discussed and it is shown that it is possible to identify three distinct stages in the formation of an adhesive joint. Firstly, the adhesive initially has to be in a ‘liquid’ form so that it can readily spread over and make intimate molecular contact with the substrates. Secondly, in order for the joint to bear the loads that will be applied to it during its service life, the ‘liquid’ adhesive must now harden. In the case of adhesives used in engineering applications, the adhesive is often initially in the form of a ‘liquid’ monomer which polymerizes to give a high molecular weight polymeric adhesive. Thirdly, it must be appreciated that the load-carrying ability of the joint, and how long it will actually last, are affected by: (a) the design of the joint, (b) the manner in which loads are applied to it and (c) the environment that the joint encounters during its service life. Thus, to understand the science involved and to succeed in further developing the technology, the skills and knowledge from many different disciplines are required. Indeed, the input from surface chemists, polymer chemists and physicists, materials engineers and mechanical engineers are needed. Hence, the science and technology of adhesion and adhesives is a truly multidisciplined subject. These different disciplines have been brought together by developing a fracture mechanics approach to the failure of adhesive joints. The advances that have been made in applying the concepts of fracture mechanics to adhesive joints have enabled a better understanding of the fundamental aspects of adhesion and the more rapid extension of adhesives technology into advanced engineering applications.

Full text
Abstract:
While the spread of computer aided design tools in the last two decades has been revolutionary, much of its analytical basis in elasticity, vibrations, thermal systems etc, rests on linear models. These new ideas have found application in many areas of applied science and are now just beginning to find their ways into practical devices. (See eg, Moon (1992)). As these ideas mature, it is natural to ask if they can be introduced into the undergraduate curriculum. The Author argues that creative solutions to design problems often result from using nonlinear models and concepts. Nonlinearity, often seen as something to be avoided, can sometimes offer alternative solutions that linear models cannot do. The Author also argues the case for introducing nonlinear thinking into the engineering curriculum in mathematics, mechanics of materials and dynamics using both computational and experimental laboratories. This paper describes a program at Cornell University to introduce nonlinear dynamics concepts to mechanical engineering undergraduates through an NSF sponsored grant for curriculum development.

In this paper, a study to reduce the reactive energy that is necessary in such systems is carried out. This is accomplished by associating the actuator with its capacitive characteristic circuit. Also, non-idealities of the circuit performance are addressed, along with theoretical limits regarding possible power savings and practical difficulties in achieving them. The proposed converter introduces energy to correct the difference of phase between current and voltage that is supplied to the piezoelectric transducer (PZT) actuator. This process is optimized by the introduction of reactive power to the characteristic process of the PZT’s actuator circuit. Therefore the system is supposed to present an electric characteristic that is close to resistive, and is not capacitive any more.

The aim of this article is to present the list of books by Polish scientists on applied mechanics in a rather broad sense. An effort was made to cover the last century. Previous Polish sources, until 1874, were collected by Kucharzewski (1894). A list of the main journals in applied mechanics is also given, essentially covering the period starting after the Second World War.

Abstract:
Wind Power prediction is very important in the wind power grid management. This paper introduces how to use Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller(CMAC) to build a short-term wind power prediction model.CMAC and Back-propagation Artificial Neural Networks(BP) are used respectively to do the short-term prediction with the data from a wind farm in Inner Mongolia. After comparison of the results, CMAC is more stable, accurate and faster with less training data.. CMAC is considered to be more suitable to do the short-term prediction. All of the study are based on applied mechanics, which will be useful for energy engineering and mechanics study.

Abstract:
The petroleum industry offers a broad spectrum of problems that falls within the domain of expertise of mechanical engineers. These problems range from the design of well production equipment to the evaluation of formation responses to production and stimulation. This paper briefly describes various aspects and related difficulties with which the oil industry has to deal, from the time the well is spudded until the field is abandoned. It attempts to delineate the problems, to outline the approaches presently used, and to discuss areas where additional research is needed. Areas of current research activity also are described; whenever appropriate, typical or pertinent case histories are used to illustrate a point.

Abstract:
Silt is widely distributed in coast area. Its consolidation is a popular geotechnical engineering issue. Coast silt is always under seasonal wave and tide, which made great influence on the consolidation process. Abundant lab and in-situ tests are used to study on the physical-mechanical properties of Xiamen coast silt. The engineering characteristic of the coast silt taken from Xiamen is evaluated and the relationships between physics and mechanics indexes such as compression coefficient, water content, void ratio, cohesion and internal friction angle are analyzed, and the linear regression equations between silt parameter is established. Then two in-situ tests cone penetration test (CPT) and flat dilatometer test (DMT) are applied to study the properties of coast silt, abundant in-situ test data obtained.

Abstract:
In this study, the optimal chemical-mechanical respiratory control model was modified to include nonlinear respiratory mechanics with a lumped viscous resistance of the flow through the entire respiratory system, and a flow resistance that is proportional to the power of the flow rate. To evaluate the optimality of the system, a quadratic rising neuromuscular drive was applied to a neuro-mechanical effector and the respiratory signals were optimized under hypercapnia and eucapnia conditions. A continuous resistive load was imposed to compare the model behavior of respiratory mechanical loading with normal load. The optimized respiratory signals were demonstrated and the ventilatory responses with the optimized breathing patterns were examined. Our results showed that the nonlinear model acquired the intended level of ventilation with higher tidal volume VT and lower breathing frequency F during CO2 inhalation and lower VT and higher F during exercise.

Abstract:
The explosive development of modern technology and the increasing societal awareness of technological risks are enforcing a more rigorous approach to the development of engineering theories, experiments, and design procedures. The recent progress in the theories and techniques of measurements has exposed various deficiencies of procedures of experimental and analytical mechanics. Major patterns of the rapidly emerging system of theories and experimental and analytical procedures based on scientific methodology -- which is called “advanced experimental mechanics” -- are outlined. The strong interdependence of advanced experimental mechanics, contemporary analytical mechanics and modern trends in applied materials science is illustrated by examples. Major issues are discussed within the framework of the modern scientific methodology formulated by Karl Popper, of Thomas Kuhn’s notion of paradigm in science, of Niels Bohr’s correspondence principle, and of the requirement of reliability of engineering procedures in mechanics imposed by socio-economic factors.
