Recent Advances in Thin-walled Structures presents the current state-of-the-art in this important research field. The book is dedicated to the contributions of Professor Dinar Camotim, who is one of the most prominent, global researchers in the field of thin-walled metal structures, and who recently retired. Within the book, nine leading international experts present their most recent and important research findings. The book begins with an introductory chapter that describes the contributions that Professor Dinar Camotin has made to the field during his long and established career. Subsequent chapters focus on different cutting-edge topics that have been written by world-renowned experts. The book will be a valuable reference resource for all those who are involved in the design and optimization of thin-walled structures. It presents the latest achievements in the field, which will help readers address their own challenges and prepare them for future developments and achievements.Presents recent and important advancements in the field of thin-walled structuresCovers real-world applications, innovative material and construction solutions, technical challenges, future trends, ethical and regulatory aspects, and environmental and sustainability issuesContains practical case studies, advanced analytical methods, interdisciplinary insights, design standards, risk assessment strategies, sustainability principles, and materials performance dataIncludes contributions from prominent international experts in the field

A large part of the research currently being conducted in the fields of materials science and engineering mechanics is devoted to carbon nanotubes and their applications. In this process, modeling is a very attractive investigation tool due to the difficulties in manufacturing and testing of nanomaterials. Continuum modeling offers significant advantages over atomistic modeling. Furthermore, the lack of accuracy in continuum methods can be overtaken by incorporating input data either from experiments or atomistic methods. This book reviews the recent progress in continuum modeling of carbon nanotubes and their composites. The advantages and disadvantages of continuum methods over atomistic methods are comprehensively discussed. Numerical models, mainly based on the finite element method, as well as analytical models are presented in a comparative way starting from the simulation of isolated pristine and defected nanotubes and proceeding to nanotube-based composites. The ability of continuum methods to bridge different scales is emphasized. Recommendations for future research are given by focusing on what still continuum methods have to learn from the nano-scale. The scope of the book is to provide current knowledge aiming to support researchers entering the scientific area of carbon nanotubes to choose the appropriate modeling tool for accomplishing their study and place their efforts to further improve continuum methods.
