Structural Analysis
This main text encompasses both the principles of mechanics and basic structural concepts, and computer methods in structural analysis. In this edition, coverage of plane statistics and introductory vector analysis is increased; there is a greater design-based emphasis and more material on the principle of virtual work, and computer methods are referred to throughout.
Mechanics and Design of Tubular Structures
This book helps designers and manufacturers to select and develop the most suitable and competitive steel structures, which are safe, fit for production and economic. An optimum design system is used to find the best characteristics of structural models, which guarantee the fulfilment of design and fabrication requirements and minimize the cost function. Realistic numerical models are used as main components of industrial steel structures. Chapter 1 containts some experiences with the optimum design of steel structures Chapter 2 treats some newer mathematical optimization methods. Chapter 3 gives formulae for fabrication times and costs. Chapters 4 deals with beams and columns. Summarizes the Eurocode rules for design. Chapter 5 deals with the design of tubular trusses. Chapter 6 gives the design of frame structures and fire-resistant design rules for a frame. In Chapters 7 some minimum cost design problems of stiffened and cellular plates and shells are worked out for cases of different stiffenings and loads. Chapter 8 gives a cost comparison of cylindrical and conical shells. The book contains a large collection of literatures and a subject list and a name index.
Applied Stress Analysis
This volume records the proceedings of an international conference organised as a tribute to the contribution made by Professor H. Fessler over the whole of his pro fessionallife, in the field of applied stress analysis. The conference, held at the Univer sity of Nottingham on 30 and 31 August 1990, was timed to coincide with the date of his formal retirement from the post of Professor of Experimental Stress Analysis in the University. The idea grew from discussions between some of Professor Fessler's academic associates from Nottingham and elsewhere. An organising committee was set up, and it was decided to invite contributions to the conference in the form of review papers and original research papers in the field of experimental, theoretical and computational stress analysis. The size of the response, both in papers submitted and in attendance at the conference, indicates that the idea proved attractive to many of his peers, former associates and research students. A bound copy of the volume is to be presented to Professor Fessler at the conference dinner on 30 August 1990.
Aluminium Alloy Structures, Second Edition
This book examines the ways in which aluminium and its alloys satisfy the requirements of civil engineering structures and the applications in which they compete with steel. The first edition has become known as an authoritative design reference book on the subject. As a result of the author's continuing research in the field, the new edition is thoroughly revised and updated.
Tubular Structures IX
A reference for architects and engineers, this work covers themes on architecture, case studies, and the application and strengths of tubular beams.
Continuous and Integral Bridges
This book contains the invited contributions to the 1993 Henderson Colloquium organised by the British Group of IABSE (International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering). It provides an international review of new techniques of designing and constructing joint-free bridges - an approach which is rapidly being developed and used in many parts of the world.
An Introduction to Matrix Methods of Structural Analysis
The matrix force method has been systematically developed for the analysis of beam and frame structures. It helps develop the matrix stiffness method from a basic spring element, and this is extended to the analysis of beams, trusses, plain frames, grillages, and space frames. Using computer programs (manual, automatic, or the direct force method extending toward automation), this book interactively introduces matrix methods of structural analysis. In addition to work and energy, it also discusses the concepts of stresses, strains, strain displacement relationship, and plain stress and strain. Features: Explains force, displacement, and stiffness via the matrix perspective. Reviews full prog...
Tubular Structures XIII
Tubular Structures XIII contains the latest scientific and engineering developments in the field of tubular steel structures, as presented at the 13th International Symposium on Tubular Structures (ISTS13), Hong Kong, 15 - 17 December 2010. The International Symposium on Tubular Structures (ISTS) has a longstanding reputation for being the pri
Tubular Structures XI
This topical book contains the latest scientific and engineering developments in the field of tubular steel structures, as presented at the "11th International Symposium and IIW International Conference on Tubular Structures". The International Symposium on Tubular Structures (ISTS) has a long-standing reputation for being the principal showcase for manufactured tubing and the prime international forum for discussion of research, developments and applications in this field. Various key and emerging subjects in the field of hollow structural sections are covered, such as: novel applications and case studies, static and fatigue behaviour of connections/joints, concrete-filled and composite tub...
Bridge Management 2
This volume focuses on ways of limiting the whole life cost of new bridges and extending the life of old bridges by presenting preventative and curative measures which have been found in practice to work.
