Mathematical Modelling of Continuum Physics

By: Angelo Morro,Claudio Giorgi

This monograph provides a comprehensive and self-contained treatment of continuum physics, illustrating a systematic approach to the constitutive equations for wide-ranging classes of materials. Derivations of results are detailed through careful proofs, and the contents have been developed to ensure a self-contained and consistent presentation. Part I reviews the kinematics of continuous bodies and illustrates the general setting of balance laws. Essential preliminaries to continuum physics – such as reference and current configurations, transport relations, singular surfaces, objectivity, and objective time derivatives – are covered in detail. A chapter on balance equations then develops the balance laws of mass, linear momentum, angular momentum, energy, and entropy, as well as the balance laws in electromagnetism. Part II is devoted to the general requirements on constitutive models, emphasizing the application of objectivity and consistency with the second law of thermodynamics. Common models of simple materials are then reviewed, and in this framework, detailed descriptions are given of solids (thermoelastic, elastic, and dissipative) and fluids (elastic, thermoelastic, viscous, and Newtonian). A wide of variety of constitutive models are investigated in Part III, which consists of separate chapters focused on several types of non-simple materials: materials with memory, aging and higher-order grade materials, mixtures, micropolar media, and porous materials. The interaction of the electromagnetic field with deformation is also examined within electroelasticity, magnetoelasticity, and plasma theory. Hysteretic effects and phase transitions are considered in Part IV. A new approach is established by treating entropy production as a constitutive function in itself, as is the case for entropy and entropy flux. This proves to be conceptually and practically advantageous in the modelling of nonlinear phenomena, such as those occurring in hysteretic continua (e.g., plasticity, electromagnetism, and the physics of shape memory alloys). Mathematical Modelling of Continuum Physics will be an important reference for mathematicians, engineers, physicists, and other scientists interested in research or applications of continuum mechanics.

Mathematical Problems in Linear Viscoelasticity

By: Mauro Fabrizio,Angelo Morro

Describes general mathematical modeling of viscoelastic materials as systems with fading memory. Discusses the interrelation between topics such as existence, uniqueness, and stability of initial boundary value problems, variational and extremum principles, and wave propagation. Demonstrates the deep connection between the properties of the solution to initial boundary value problems and the requirements of the general physical principles. Discusses special techniques and new methods, including Fourier and Laplace transforms, extremum principles via weight functions, and singular surfaces and discontinuity waves.

Electromagnetism of Continuous Media

Mathematical Modelling and Applications

By: Mauro Fabrizio,Angelo Morro

The wide application of technologies in new mechanical, electronic and biomedical systems calls for materials and structures with non-conventional properties (e.g materials with 'memory'). Of equal importance is the understanding of the physical behaviour of these materials and consequently developing mathematical modelling techniques for prediction. This self contained text discusses the mathematical modelling used with these types of electromagnetic materials. It provides a carefully structured, coherent, and comprehensive treatment of electromagnetism of continuous media. The authors provide a systematic review of known subjects along with original results about thermodynamics of electromagnetic materials, well-posedness of initial boundary-value problems, variational settings, and wave propagation. Models of non-linear materials, non-local materials (superconductors), and hysteretic (magnetic) materials are also developed in detail.

Inhomogeneous Waves In Solids And Fluids

By: Giacomo Caviglia,Angelo Morro

The book may be viewed as an introduction to time-harmonic waves in dissipative bodies, notably viscoelastic solids and fluids. The inhomogeneity of the waves, which is due to the fact that planes of constant phase are not parallel to planes of constant amplitude, is shown to be strictly related to the dissipativity of the medium. A preliminary analysis is performed on the propagation of inhomogeneous waves in unbounded media and of reflection and refraction at plane interfaces. Then emphasis is given to those features that are of significance for applications. In essence, they regard surface waves, scattering by (curved) obstacles, wave propagation in layered heterogeneous media, and ray methods. The pertinent mathematical techniques are discussed so as to make the book reasonably self-contained.

Godfather and Sons: A Legacy of Deceit

By: Angelo Pagnotti

It was time. Time for the old man to reveal the family secrets hidden for seven decades. Old Grandpop made it clear that knowledge of the secrets came with a burden as he passed his journals to Angelo, his namesake grandson. His grandson accepted the mantel of Pavelli family protector, promising to ensure the family remained protected from an insidious evil. Grandpop Angelo immigrated to America to search for Gus, his missing father. The journals tell the story of a boy growing into manhood, a man remarkably different from the grandfather he thought he knew. The exposed secrets change the grandson's image of his quiet, tired nonagenarian Grandpop. The Italian farm boy's search for his father transformed his life and tested the old saying that blood is thicker than water.

City of Crime

By: Carlo Angelo Torres

There is this criminal organization. One of the middle managers, hungry for power, kills the boss in such a way that everybody thinks it was a rival group. However, some people realize what happened, and a war between factions begins. The police are trying to dismantle the organization, though without success because most of the leaders are unknown. At the same time, a young university student is recruited. He has no idea of the hell he is entering. A young woman that murdered somebody becomes a whore and a killer, but she falls in love. Everything happens in the middle of the war, and alliances and betrayals happen between the Colombians and other ethnic groups, such as the Calabrians and the Germans.

Mathematical Models and Methods for Smart Materials

Cortona, Italy, 25-29 June 2001

By: Mauro Fabrizio,Angelo Morro,Barbara Lazzari

This book contains the papers presented at the conference on "Mathematical Models and Methods for Smart Materials, " held in Italy in 2001. The papers are divided into four parts: "Methods in Materials Science" deals mainly with mathematical techniques fo the investigation of physical systems, such as liquid crystals, materials with internal variables, amorphous materials, and thermoelastic materials. Also, techniques are exhibited for the analysis of stability and controllability of classical models of continuum mechanics and of dynamical systems. "Modelling of Smart Materials" is devoted to models of superfluids, superconductors, materials with memory, nonlinear elastic solids, and damaged materials. In the elaboration of the models, thermodynamic aspects play a central role in the characterization of the constitutive properties. "Well-Posedness in Materials with Memory" deals with existence, uniqueness and stability for the solution of problems, most often expressed by integrodifferential equations, which involve materials with fading memory. Also, attention is given to exponential decay in viscoelasticity, inverse problems in heat conduction with memory, and automatic control for parabolic equations. "Analytic Problems in Phase Transitions" discusses nonlinear partial differential equations associated with phase transitions, and hysteresis, possibly involving fading memory effects. Particular applications are developed for the phase-field model with memory, the Stefan problem with a Cattaneo type equation, the hysteresis in thermo-visco plasticity, and the solid-solid phase transition. Contents: Automatic Control Problems for Integrodifferential Parabolic Equations (C Cavaterra);Phase Relaxation Problems with Memory and Their Optimal Control (P Colli); Unified Dynamics of Particles and Photons (G Ferrarese); Solid-Solid Phase Transition in a Mechanical System (G Gilardi); KAM Methods for Nonautonomous

Red Fred's Dead

An autobiography of a Kid from San Diego

By: Angelo La Jolla

This is a highly entertaining, fast -moving, vibrant account of the life of a man who didn't always take the obvious pathways, but always made the most of the pathways he found himself along. This book offers a great deal of colorful detail about the boy's earliest days as a hardscrabble kid growing up in a big California family, through his high-spirited youth and all through his adult years, including great swaths of thrill-seeking time spent in South and Central America. We meet a great many characters from his life and are privy to the various escapades in which the lot of them engage.
