Sommario/riassunto

Exploring the political ideology of Republicanism under the Roman emperors of the first century AD, Sam Wilkinson puts forward the hypothesis that there was indeed opposition to the political structure and ideology of the rulers on the grounds of Republicanism. While some Romans wanted a return to the Republic, others wanted the emperor to ensure his reign was as close to Republican moral and political ideology as possible. Analysing the discourse of the period, the book charts how the view of law, morality and behaviour changed under the various Imperial regimes of the first century AD. Uniquely, this book explores how emperors could choose to set their regime in a more Republican or more Imperial manner, thus demonstrating it was possible for both the opposition and an emperor to be Republican. The book concludes by providing evidence of Republicanism in the first century AD which not only created opposition to the emperors, but also became part of the political debate in this period.

Sommario/riassunto

Adding seven new chapters integrating modern approaches to dynamical systems theory, this revised second edition describes numerical approaches to the nonlinear theory of beams, plates and shells, with an emphasis to the elastic and thermoelastic features. The added chapters discuss in particular how to understand, model, and obtain reliable results while detecting and analysing chaotic dynamics exhibited by thin structural members. The authors attempt to address the large impact of new directions of nonlinear dynamical phenomena in the context of the overall state-of-the art presented in the first book edition. They also present new perspectives of the unsolved problems of thin structural members. The authors made every effort to keep the text intelligible for both practitioners and graduate students, although they offer a rigorous treatment of both purely mathematical and numerical approaches presented so that the reader can understand, analyse andtrack the nonlinear dynamics of spatial systems (shells) with thermomechanical behaviours. .
