Bridge Design - Concepts and Analysis provides a unique approach, combining the fundamentals of concept design and structural analysis of bridges in a single volume. The book discusses design solutions from the authors’ practical experience and provides insights into conceptual design with concrete, steel or composite bridge solutions as alternatives.

Key features: Principal design concepts and analysis are dealt with in a unified approach. + Execution methods and evolution of the static scheme during construction are dealt with for steel, concrete and composite bridges. + Aesthetics and environmental integration of bridges are considered as an issue for concept design. + Bridge analysis, including modelling and detail design aspects, is discussed for different bridge typologies and structural materials. + Specific design verification aspects are discussed on the basis of present design rules in Eurocodes. The book is an invaluable guide for postgraduate students studying bridge design, bridge designers and structural engineers.

The Finite Element Method in Engineering, Sixth Edition, provides a thorough grounding in the mathematical principles behind the Finite Element Analysis technique an analytical engineering tool originated in the 1960's by the aerospace and nuclear power industries to find usable, approximate solutions to problems with many complex variables. Rao shows how to set up finite element solutions in civil, mechanical and aerospace engineering applications. The new edition features updated real-world examples from MATLAB, Ansys and Abaqus, and a new chapter on additional FEM topics including extended FEM (X-FEM). Professional engineers will benefit from the introduction to the many useful applications of finite element analysis.

Includes revised and updated chapters on MATLAB, Ansys and Abaqus + Offers a new chapter, Additional Topics in Finite Element Method + Includes discussion of practical considerations, errors and pitfalls in FEM singularity elements + Features a brief presentation of recent developments in FEM including extended FEM (X-FEM), augmented FEM (A-FEM) and partition of unity FEM (POUFEM) + Features improved pedagogy, including the addition of more design-oriented and practical examples and problems + Covers real-life applications, sample review questions at the end of most chapters, and updated references.
