'Knopen' behandelt het berekenen van geboute en gelaste verbindingen in raamwerken en in buisconstructies volgens NEN-EN 1993 (Eurocode 3).

* Hoofdstuk 1 bespreekt de eigenschappen van verbindingen in raamwerken, waarbij de nadruk ligt op ligger/kolom-verbindingen. Aan de orde komen de classificatie van verbindingen, het modelleren van de verbindingseigenschappen (componentenmethode), de weerstand en stijfheid van de verbinding en de eisen aan de rotatiecapaciteit en de stijfheid.

* Hoofdstuk...

Dit boek is een kennismaking met de mechanica van bouwwerken, waarbij de mechanica zowel onderdeel is van het constructief ontwerp als van de constructieve berekening.

• Hoofdstuk 1 verklaart vanuit de wetten van Newton ‘het in evenwicht zijn’ van constructies en bespreekt de gebruikte eenheden en de nauwkeurigheid van de constructieve berekening.

• Hoofdstuk 2 behandelt het grafisch en analytisch samenstellen en ontbinden van krachten én het effect van verplaatsen een kracht.

• Ho...

Nederland was altijd al een van de beste jongetjes in de klas van het Atlantisch

bondgenootschap. Het tragische gevolg daarvan is dat Nederlanders geneigd zijn om de

Amerikaanse versie van de gebeurtenissen in de wereld klakkeloos aan te nemen. Dieptepunt

waren de aanslagen van 11 september 2001 in de Verenigde Staten, waarbij de sluizen van

desinformatie over zowel de binnenlandse als de buitenlandse Amerikaanse politiek wijd

werden opengezet. Door de Nederlandse pers wordt ten aanzien van d...

Covering the elementary aspects of the physics of phases transitions and the renormalization group, this popular book is widely used both for core graduate statistical mechanics courses as well as for more specialized courses. Emphasizing understanding and clarity rather than technical manipulation, these lectures de-mystify the subject and show precisely "how things work." Goldenfeld keeps in mind a reader who wants to understand why things are done, what the results are, and what in princip...

Signals and Systems Using MATLAB, Fourth Edition features a pedagogically rich and accessible approach to what can commonly be a mathematically dry subject. Historical notes and common mistakes combined with applications in controls, communications, and signal processing help students understand and appreciate the usefulness of the techniques described in the text. This new edition features more worked examples and a variety of new end-of-chapter problems, suggestions for labs, and more expla...

An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory is a textbook intended for the graduate physics course covering relativistic quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics, and Feynman diagrams. The authors make these subjects accessible through carefully worked examples illustrating the technical aspects of the subject, and intuitive explanations of what is going on behind the mathematics. After presenting the basics of quantum electrodynamics, the authors discuss the theory of renormalization and its r...
