Fundamental Research on Descriptive Statics
From 287 BC when Archimedes used the fulcrum to think about the statics equilibrium problem to 1864 when K. Culmann published Die Graphische Statik,... -
Statics does not Agree with Haste
“Statics does not go well with haste!” -
Fundamental Study of Descriptive Vector Statics
In engineering design, vectors are widely used, and the graphical method for vector calculation is simple and intuitive. Force is a vector quantity,... -
Statics analysis based on the reduced multibody system transfer matrix method
The reduced multibody system transfer matrix method can efficiently solve the generalized accelerations of a system without establishing global...

Size-dependent and microinertia effects on statics and dynamics based on the modified couple stress theory with arbitrary boundary conditions
In this work, we discuss size-dependent and microinertia effects on the static and dynamic performances of a microscale model based on the...

Statics
This chapter gives a brief outline of the statics of rigid solids and systems of rigid solids. Two definitions of the equivalence of systems of... -
One Line of Development of the Galerkin Projection Method in Problems of Stationary Solid Mechanics (Review)
One of the line of development of the projective Galerkin method intended for efficient solution of problems with a large number of independent...

Statics of Fluids
We begin this chapter with a discussion on hydrostatics (Sect. 2.1), presenting a few applications (Sect. 2.2). Then, interfacial effects in fluids... -
Statics in Three Dimensions
The field of statics in three dimensions is addressed. Applied vectors, for which the line of application is relevant, are introduced to deal with... -
Statics of Particles in One Dimension
The field of statics of particles in one dimension is addressed. Particular emphasis is on chains of spring–connected particles. These provide us... -
High-Contrast Multi-layered Plates. Statics, Dynamics and Buckling
This paper deals with the mechanical behavior of multi-layered plates whose constituents show strong contrasts in mechanical properties. A typical... -
A simple geometrically exact finite element for thin shells—Part 1: statics
This paper presents a new triangular nonlinear shell finite element with a novel kinematic model suitable for simulation with large displacements and...

Solved Problems
Nonlinear structural elements are considered, for which several problems are proposed and solved by perturbation methods. The nonlinear elastostatic... -
Solving basic problems of compliant tolerance analysis by static analogy
Predicting the geometric variation of sheet metal assemblies is a complex task, because deformation during joining operations influences the...

Eight Non-Classical Problems of Fracture Mechanics
This book presents an analysis of eight non-classical problems of fracture and failure mechanics mainly obtained by research in the department of... -
Three-dimensional nonlocal-surface energy-based statics, dynamics, and divergence instability of movable cable-like nanostructures with arbitrary translational motion
Previous studies were concerned with transverse vibrations of axially moving nanowires; however, their statics as well as lateral and transverse...
