Collisions Engineering: Theory and Applications

This book investigates collisions occurring in the motion of solids, in the motion of fluids but also in the motion of pedestrians in crowds. The duration of these presented collisions is short compared to the whole duration of the motion: they are assume

Preface

Predictive theories of collisions occurring in solid and fluid mechanics are investigated in this book. It is devoted to collisions which may be assumed instantaneous: collisions of rigid solids, collisions of deformable solids and collisions of solids and fluids. Collisions being dissipative, the coupled thermal and mechanical phenomena are considered in the predictive theories. Applications to collision engineering are presented, crowd motions, debris flow motions, shape memory alloys motions. These problems have been investigated in the framework of the Laboratorio Lagrange, bringing together Italian and French scientists. In particular scientists from l’Università di Roma “Tor Vergata” and from l’École nationale des ponts et chaussés: Professors Federica Caselli, Francesco Federico, Michel Frémond, Directeur de Recherche Pierre Argoul, Doc
