ANSYS Tutorial Release 2023 Structural & Thermal Analysis Using the ANSYS Mechanical APDL Release 2023 Environment The eight lessons in this book introduce you to effective finite element problem solving by demonstrating the use of the comprehensive ANSYS FEM Release 2023 software in a series of step-by-step tutorials. The tutorials are suitable for either professional or student use. The lessons discuss linear static response for problems involving truss plane stress plane strain axisymmetric solid beam and plate structural elements. Example problems in heat transfer thermal stress mesh creation and transferring models from CAD solid modelers to ANSYS are also included. The tutorials progress from simple to complex. Each lesson can be mastered in a short period of time and lessons 1 through 7 should all be completed to obtain a thorough understanding of basic ANSYS structural analysis. The concise treatment includes examples of truss beam and shell elements completely updated for use with ANSYS APDL 2023. | ANSYS Tutorial Release 2023 Structural & Thermal Analysis Using the ANSYS Mechanical APDL Release 2023 Environment GBP 59.99 1
Introduction to Finite Element Analysis Using SOLIDWORKS Simulation 2023 The primary goal of Introduction to Finite Element Analysis Using SOLIDWORKS Simulation 2023 is to introduce the aspects of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) that are important to engineers and designers. Theoretical aspects of FEA are also introduced as they are needed to help better understand the operation. The primary emphasis of the text is placed on the practical concepts and procedures needed to use SOLIDWORKS Simulation in performing Linear Static Stress Analysis and basic Modal Analysis. This text covers SOLIDWORKS Simulation and the lessons proceed in a pedagogical fashion to guide you from constructing basic truss elements to generating three-dimensional solid elements from solid models. This text takes a hands-on exercise-intensive approach to all the important FEA techniques and concepts. This textbook contains a series of fourteen tutorial style lessons designed to introduce beginning FEA users to SOLIDWORKS Simulation. The basic premise of this book is that the more designs you create using SOLIDWORKS Simulation the better you learn the software. With this in mind each lesson introduces a new set of commands and concepts building on previous lessons. GBP 64.99 1

Exploring British Politics Exploring British Politics is a concise comprehensive and accessible guide to the subject. Fully updated and revised the new edition covers developments since 2016 in the role of the executive parliament the civil service political parties general elections party ideology and membership as well as examining turmoil and leadership battles within the Labour and Conservative parties the politics of growing inequality public action and reaction demographic trends and their political consequences and the future of the UK itself. Stimulating critical analysis and lively debate it provides new perspectives on two key themes – the health of British democracy and the transition from traditional models of government to more flexible forms of ‘governance’. Key features include: Comprehensive analysis of the 2019 general election Brexit developments since the 2016 Referendum to today’s ongoing impacts and the shadow cast by the COVID-19 global pandemic and its implications; Topical coverage of the fall of the Truss leadership the new Johnson and Sunak era the rise and fall of the ‘Change UK’ party the economic crisis the role of special advisers new social movements such as Extinction Rebellion and Black Lives Matter and much more; Extensive guides to further reading at the end of each chapter; Richly illustrated through examples and data often visually represented; Online support in the form of a comprehensive website with additional content. Whilst the book provides an essential historical background contemporary issues are to the fore throughout and readers are encouraged to assess critically received wisdoms and develop their own thoughts and ideas. Whether studying the subject for the first time or revisiting it Exploring British Politics is the ideal undergraduate text. GBP 35.99 1
The Etruscan World The Etruscans can be shown to have made significant and in some cases perhaps the first technical advances in the central and northern Mediterranean. To the Etruscan people we can attribute such developments as the tie-beam truss in large wooden structures surveying and engineering drainage and water tunnels the development of the foresail for fast long-distance sailing vessels fine techniques of metal production and other pyrotechnology post-mortem C-sections in medicine and more. In art many technical and iconographic developments although they certainly happened first in Greece or the Near East are first seen in extant Etruscan works preserved in the lavish tombs and goods of Etruscan aristocrats. These include early portraiture the first full-length painted portrait the first perspective view of a human figure in monumental art specialized techniques of bronze-casting and reduction-fired pottery (the bucchero phenomenon). Etruscan contacts through trade treaty and intermarriage linked their culture with Sardinia Corsica and Sicily with the Italic tribes of the peninsula and with the Near Eastern kingdoms Greece and the Greek colonial world Iberia Gaul and the Punic network of North Africa and influenced the cultures of northern Europe. In the past fifteen years striking advances have been made in scholarship and research techniques for Etruscan Studies. Archaeological and scientific discoveries have changed our picture of the Etruscans and furnished us with new specialized information. Thanks to the work of dozens of international scholars it is now possible to discuss topics of interest that could never before be researched such as Etruscan mining and metallurgy textile production foods and agriculture. In this volume over 60 experts provide insights into all these aspects of Etruscan culture and more with many contributions available in English for the first time to allow the reader access to research that may not otherwise be available to them. Lavishly illustrated The Etruscan World brings to life the culture and material past of the Etruscans and highlights key points of development in research making it essential reading for researchers academics and students of this fascinating civilization.
