Sommario/riassunto

This book in two parts delivers a thorough derivation of nonrelativistic interaction models of electromagnetic field theories with thermoelastic solids and viscous fluids, the intention being to derive unique representations for the observable field quantities. Part I, a revised and updated version of LNP 88 "Field Matter Interactions in Thermoelastic Solids," investigates the foundations and the equivalence of various formulations of the interaction of the electromagnetic field with thermoelastic solids in the classical continuum physics limit, while Part II extensively surveys two major fields of applications, namely, magnetoelastic instabilities and vibrations, and electrorheological fluids. This volume is intended for and will be useful to students and



researchers working on all aspects of electromagneto-mechanical interactions in the materials sciences of complex solids and fluids.

Sommario/riassunto

Annotation These 28 papers presented at the American Society for Testing and Materials symposium held in June 1998 are organized by the major session topics of instrumentation associated with: soil structure interaction, monitoring landfills, and monitoring settlement and stability; and field data acquisition and data management. Case studies introduce the unique problems associated with soil interaction instrumentation and construction monitoring programs installed in urban areas. Four papers are specific to geotechnical instrumentation of landfills. Several authors discuss developments in instrumentation automation involving fiber optic sensors, satellite technology, and geographic information systems; Boston's Central Artery/Tunnel Project is a case in point. Durham and Marr are with private enterprises in the field. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
