The result has been old institutional structures at odds with the republican ambitions, leaving Canada clinging to the wreckage of the old aristocratic order while attempting to provide a new order founded on republican equality. Vaughan shows how, at the time of Confederation, Edward Freeman, a Cambridge historian who convinced John A. Macdonald to experiment with what no one had ever heard of before, a "monarchic federation," and Jean-Louis DeLolme, a popular French authority on the English constitution, helped forge a new federal constitution with a strong central government and a chief executive armed with the powers necessary to govern. Vaughan examines how these principles were undermined by the judicial activism of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, which paved the way for the significant expansion of judicial power under the Charter since 1982.HISTORY / Canada / GeneralbisacshCanadaPolitics and government1867-CanadaHistoryConfederation, 1867CanadaHistoire1867 (Confédération)CanadaPolitique et gouvernement1867-HISTORY / Canada / General.320.971Vaughan Frederick1467679MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783794803321The Canadian federalist experiment3705145UNINA04627nam 22005775 450 991079922010332120251008140716.09783662667583(ebook)366266758410.1007/978-3-662-66758-3(CKB)29476205800041(DE-He213)978-3-662-66758-3(MiAaPQ)EBC31046400(Au-PeEL)EBL31046400(OCoLC)1416747304(EXLCZ)992947620580004120231228d2023 u| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierOne-Dimensional Finite Elements An Introduction To The Method /by Markus Merkel, Andreas Öchsner1st ed. 2023.Berlin, Heidelberg :Springer Berlin Heidelberg :Imprint: Springer Vieweg,2023.1 online resource (xxiii, 464 pages) illustrationsTranslated from German.9783662667576 Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction -- Motivation to the finite element method -- Beam element -- Analogies to the extension bar -- Bending element -- General 1D element -- Plane and spatial frame structures -- Beams with shear component -- Beams of composite material -- Nonlinear elasticity -- Plasticity -- Stability (buckling) -- Dynamics -- Special elements -- Appendix.In this introduction, the finite element method is broken down in its complexity to one-dimensional elements. Thus, the mathematical description remains largely simple and manageable. The emphasis in each chapter is on explaining the method and understanding it. Readers learn to understand the assumptions and derivations in various physical problems in structural mechanics and to critically evaluate the possibilities and limitations of the finite element method. This approach enables the methodical understanding of important topics, such as plasticity or composites, and ensures an easy entry into more advanced application areas. Detailed calculated and commented examples and further tasks with short solutions in the appendix support the learning success. In the third edition of this textbook, the basic concept for the treatment of the finite element method with one-dimensional problems has been retained. Additionally, thermoelasticity has been included, as well asnumerous tasks with solutions supplemented.

This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.Mechanics, AppliedSolidsEngineering designSolid MechanicsEngineering DesignMechanics, Applied.Solids.Engineering design.Solid Mechanics.Engineering Design.620.105Merkel Markus1967-authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1586317Öchsner Andreasauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910799220103321One-Dimensional Finite Elements3872657UNINA
