Sommario/riassunto

This book provides a study aid on the finite element method. Based on the free computer algebra system “Maxima”, it presents routines to symbolically or numerically solve problems in the context of plane truss and frame structures. This allows readers to not only check classical “hand calculations” but also understand the computer implementation of the method. The mechanical theories focus on the classical one-dimensional structural elements, i.e. bars, Euler–Bernoulli and Timoshenko beams as well as their combination to generalized beam elements. Focusing on one-dimensional elements reduces the complexity of the mathematical framework and the resulting matrix equations can still be displayed with all components, and not only in a symbolic representation. The use of a computer algebra system and the



incorporated functions, e.g. for equation solving, highlights the methodology of the finite element method rather than standard procedures. The book is based on the Springer Brief “Finite Elements for Truss and Frame Structures” (978-3-319-94940-6) by the same authors.

Sommario/riassunto

Eleven essays compare European Union member states' positions on gender/women's issues, and EU and US policies. Legal progress and challenges relating to economic and political parity are probed, as well as the gender perspective on trade union policies, sexual harassment, implications of EU policies for non-EU migrant women, and policies on trafficking in women. Rosillii is a freelance sociologist researcher. The contributors are predominantly academics, with one male among them. Lacks an index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
