Size-Dependent Analysis of Piezoelectric–Elastic Bilayer Microbeams Based on General Strain Gradient Theory
The classical piezoelectric theory fails to capture the size-dependent electromechanical coupling behaviors of piezoelectric microstructures due to...

Production Portfolio Theory II—First Steps Towards a General Portfolio Theory and Numerical Examplifications
This paper formalises the Production Portfolio Theory in more statistical and application-oriented detail, gives the first steps towards a General...

A General Theory of Choice
Game theory recommends the preference of a strategy over an action; instead, we propose to precede to this the very choice to play or not to play any...
-
General Electric Machine Theory
This chapter provides a review of the general theory of electric machines. It discusses the principles of electric machine operation, magnetic...

Toward a General Theory of Stochastic Hybrid Systems
In this chapter we set up a mathematical structure, called Markov string, to obtaining a very general class of models for stochastic hybrid systems....

General Reconfiguration Problem
In this chapter, a formal definition of the reconfiguration problem is developed. While the general idea of reconfiguration may appear obvious, there...

Complete General Solutions for Equilibrium Equations of Isotropic Strain Gradient Elasticity
In this paper, we consider isotropic Mindlin–Toupin strain gradient elasticity theory, in which the equilibrium equations contain two additional...

Theory of Shells
This chapter begins with the shell geometry using the surface theory. Defining the Lamè parameters, derivations continue to discuss the continuity of...

A new acoustoelastic model for velocity-hydrostatic-pressure in rocks based on general acoustoelastic theory for elastic solids
AbstractAcoustoelastic model based on classic acoustoelastic theory of solids fails to describe rock acoustoelasticity, where wave velocities in...

A general anisotropic peridynamic plane model based on micro-beam bond
Peridynamic (PD) theory can overcome the shortcomings of classical continuum mechanics (CCM) in simulating crack initiation and propagation. In this...
