Computational Methods in Earthquake Engineering
This book provides an insight on advanced methods and concepts for the design and analysis of structures against earthquake loading. This second volume is a collection of 28 chapters written by leading experts in the field of structural analysis and earthquake engineering. Emphasis is given on current state-of-the-art methods and concepts in computing methods and their application in engineering practice. The book content is suitable for both practicing engineers and academics, covering a wide variety of topics in an effort to assist the timely dissemination of research findings for the mitigation of seismic risk. Due to the devastating socioeconomic consequences of seismic events, the topic is of great scientific interest and is expected to be of valuable help to scientists and engineers. The chapters of this volume are extended versions of selected papers presented at the COMPDYN 2011 conference, held in the island of Corfu, Greece, under the auspices of the European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences (ECCOMAS).
Mechanics for a New Millennium
This volume contains the proceedings of the 2000 International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics. The book captures a snapshot view of the state of the art in the field of mechanics and will be invaluable to engineers and scientists from a variety of disciplines.
The MEMS Handbook
The revolution is well underway. Our understanding and utilization of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are growing at an explosive rate with a worldwide market approaching billions of dollars. In time, microdevices will fill the niches of our lives as pervasively as electronics do right now. But if these miniature devices are to fulfill their mammoth potential, today's engineers need a thorough grounding in the underlying physics, modeling techniques, fabrication methods, and materials of MEMS. The MEMS Handbook delivers all of this and more. Its team of authors-unsurpassed in their experience and standing in the scientific community- explore various aspects of MEMS: their design, fabrication, and applications as well as the physical modeling of their operations. Designed for maximum readability without compromising rigor, it provides a current and essential overview of this fledgling discipline.
Steel Structures
Proceedings of sessions at Structures Congress '89, held in San Francisco, California, May 1-5, 1989. One of five volumes with proceedings of Structures Congress '89. This collection contains 78 papers on steel structures. Topics include: applications of cable and membrane tension structures; techniques for assessing the reliability and new concepts in design of transmission line structures; stability considerations in design, analysis, and structural optimization; problems in steel structures; bridge and tension structure aesthetics; member design, including bracing members, compression members, steel connections in seismic design, and effects of fabrication on deformation of steel beams. Papers on applications examined latticed structures, cold-formed steel structures, tubular construction, and steel buildings.
Structures and Architecture. A Viable Urban Perspective?
Structures and Architecture. A Viable Urban Perspective? contains extended abstracts of the research papers and prototype submissions presented at the Fifth International Conference on Structures and Architecture (ICSA2022, Aalborg, Denmark, 6-8 July 2022). The book (578 pages) also includes a USB with the full texts of the papers (1448 pages). The contributions on creative and scientific aspects in the conception and construction of structures as architecture, and on the role of advanced digital-, industrial- and craft -based technologies in this matter represent a critical blend of scientific, technical, and practical novelties in both fields. Hence, as part of the proceedings series Struc...
Structural Design, Analysis, and Testing
Contains the papers presented at the 1989 Structures Congress held in San Francisco. The papers cover a range of topics, including types of construction materials, and major types of structures and measurement. This volume also discusses issues within these topics, such as: cracked concrete deterioration; dynamic response of buildings; and more.
Computational Aspects of Nonlinear Structural Systems with Large Rigid Body Motion
Published as an outgrowth of a July 2000 NATO Advanced Research Workshop, this volume brings together work representing the various generally non-interacting scientific communities concerned with the workshop topic, in the interests of generating some cross-talk. The field has seen some major recent developments, some finding their way into commercial, general purpose software intended for complex industrial applications. Thirteen contributions consider four major themes: flexible multibody systems, finite element procedures for structural systems with large rotations, numerical integration methods for rigid and flexible systems, and advanced methods in systems with large rigid body motion. The contributors are based in France, Italy, Germany, Greece, Portugal, Poland, the US, and Australia. Author index only. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
Computer Utilization in Structural Engineering
Proceedings of the sessions related to computer utilization at the Structures Conference held May 1989. (Papers on other topics are presented in four other proceedings volumes.) Over 50 contributions address a broad spectrum of topics from structural optimization and design to expert systems. Also included are current developments in finite element
