Their engagement was coloured by the history of colonialism, and interrupted by the heat of the Cold War. However, an important step to chart an equal partnership and deepen engagement was taken with the launch of the Asia-Europe Meeting in March 1996. The Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) appeared the following year as the most concrete manifestation of this newfound engagement and as an attempt to engage the civil societies of the two regions.Professor Tommy Koh, a distinguisAsiaForeign relationsEuropeEuropeForeign relationsAsiaElectronic books.327.504Koh Tommy T.

Stress analysis and measurement is an integral part of the design and management of structures, and is used in a wide range of engineering areas. There are two main types of stress analyses - the first is conceptual where the structure does not yet exist and the analyst has more freedom to define geometry, materials, loads etc - generally such analysis is undertaken using numerical methods such as the finite element method. The second is where the structure (or a prototype) exists, and so sStructural analysis (Engineering)Strains and stressesStructural analysis (Engineering)Strains and stresses.624.1624.1/76624.176Doyle James F.1951-950289MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910830629503321Modern experimental stress analysis3941391UNINA
