Master composites modelling with this insightful and authoritative resource from a leading voice in the field Multiscale Structural Mechanics: Top-Down Modeling of Composite Structures Using Mechanics of Structure Genome delivers a unified approach to composites modelling based on the concept of structure gene. Dr. Wenbin Yu, distinguished engineer, industry leader, and author, brings together micromechanics and structural mechanics using the Mechanics of Structure Genome. This approach allows multiscale constitutive modelling for general anisotropic and heterogeneous materials and structures without invoking assumptions commonly used in other approaches. The book introduces readers unfamiliar with vectors and tensors, continuum mechanics, micromechanics, and structural mechanics to the basics of each of these topics. It goes on to bridge the gap between micromechanics and structural mechanics, offering readers multiscale structural models that remain as simple as classical engineering models but with the accuracy expected of more complex theories capturing microstructural details. Specifically, the book offers: A brief introduction to vectors and tensors, as well as continuum mechanics, classical structural models including kinematics, kinetics, and energetics, and composite materialsFulsome discussions of the mechanics of structure genome (MSG) and its application to construct multiscale models for beams, plates, shells, and 3D solidsComplete explorations of both micromechanics and structural mechanics, including the theories of beams, plates, and shellsAn introduction to the calculus of variations, variational asymptotic method, and their applications to model general anisotropic and heterogeneous materials and structuresInformation sufficient to allow readers to construct efficient high-fidelity models for composites using MSG introduced in this bookDetailed discussions of stress and failure analysis of composite laminates Perfect for graduate students in aerospace, mechanical, and other disciplines making use of anisotropic and heterogeneous materials such as composites, Multiscale Structural Mechanics will also earn a place in the libraries of researchers and engineers in university, government, and industry laboratories who work with composite materials and structures. It is the ideal resource for composites modelling across a wide spectrum of engineering applications.

This book presents the latest researches on hypersonic steady glide dynamics and guidance, including the concept of steady glide reentry trajectory and the stability of its regular perturbation solutions, trajectory damping control technique for hypersonic glide reentry, singular perturbation guidance of hypersonic glide reentry, trajectory optimization based on steady glide, linear pseudospectral generalized nominal effort miss distance guidance, analytical entry guidance and trajectory-shaping guidance with final speed and load factor constraints. They can be used to solve many new difficult problems in entry guidance. And many practical engineering cases are provided for the readers for better understanding. Researchers and students in the fields of flight vehicle design or flight dynamics, guidance and control could use the book as valuable reference.
