Advanced Modelling Techniques in Structural Design
Feng Fu ... 280 pages - Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell; 1st edition (June 15, 2015)

The successful design and construction of iconic new buildings relies on a range of advanced technologies, in particular on advanced modelling techniques. In response to the increasingly complex buildings demanded by clients and architects, structural engineers have developed a range of sophisticated modelling software to carry out the necessary structural analysis and design work.
Advanced Modelling Techniques in Structural Design introduces numerical analysis methods to both students and design practitioners. It illustrates the modelling techniques used to solve structural design problems, covering most of the issues that an engineer might face, including lateral stability design of tall buildings; earthquake; progressive collapse; fire, blast and vibration analysis; non-linear geometric analysis and buckling analysis . Resolution of these design problems are demonstrated using a range of prestigious projects around the world, including the Buji Khalifa; Willis Towers; Taipei 101; the Gherkin; Millennium Bridge; Millau viaduct and the Forth Bridge, illustrating the practical steps required to begin a modelling exercise and showing how to select appropriate software tools to address specific design problems.
Fluid Dynamics via Examples and Solution

Fluid Dynamics via Examples and Solutions
provides a substantial set of example problems and detailed model
solutions covering various phenomena and effects in fluids. The book is
ideal as a supplement or exam review for undergraduate and graduate
courses in fluid dynamics, continuum mechanics, turbulence, ocean and
atmospheric sciences, and related areas. It is also suitable as a main
text for fluid dynamics courses with an emphasis on learning by example
and as a self-study resource for practicing scientists who need to learn
the basics of fluid dynamics.
The author covers several sub-areas of fluid dynamics, types of flows, and applications. He also includes supplementary theoretical material when necessary. Each chapter presents the background, an extended list of references for further reading, numerous problems, and a complete set of model solutions.

Engineering Fluid Mechanics
Clayton T. Crowe, Donald F. Elger, Barbara C. Williams, John A. Roberson ...
592 pages - Publisher: Wiley; 9th edition (September 30, 2008)
Language: English - ISBN-10: 0470259779 - ISBN-13: 978-0470259771
Connecting the math and theory of fluid mechanics to practical applications can be a difficult process. Engineering Fluid Mechanics
builds on the success of previous editions to help engineers learn how
to apply concepts by keeping them engaged and active throughout the
book. Simple and effective examples show how key equations are utilized
in practice, and step-by-step descriptions provide details into the
processes that engineers follow. Each chapter also outlines the three
most important things they will be able to accomplish once the concepts
are learned. With its physical/visual approach, engineers will quickly
gain an intuitive understanding of the principles.

Offshore Pipelines: Design, Installation and Maintenance
Boyun Guo, Shanhong Song, Ali Ghalambor, Tian Ran Lin ... 400 pages - Publisher: Gulf Professional Publishing; 2nd edition (July, 2013) ... Language: English - ASIN: B00ECIJRZK by Amazon Digital Services ...The development of oil and gas fields offshore requires specialized pipeline equipment. The structures must be strong enough to with stand the harshest environments, and ensure that production is not interrupted and remains economically feasible. However, recent events in the Gulf of Mexico have placed a new importance on maintenance and reliability. A new section; Condition Based Maintenance (CBM), introduces the subject of maintenance, written by Tian Ran Lin, Queensland University of Technology, and Yong Sun, CSIRO Earth Science and Resource Engineering. Two of the main objectives of CBM is maximizing reliability while preventing major or minor equipment malfunction and minimizing maintenance costs. In this new section, the authors deal with the multi-objective condition based maintenance optimization problem. CBM provides two major advantages: (1) an efficient approach for weighting maintenance objectives, and (2) a method for specifying physical methods for achieving those objectives. Maintenance cost and reliability objectives are calculated based on proportional hazards model and a control limit CBM replacement policy. Written primarily for engineers and management personnel working on offshore and deepwater oil and gas pipelines, this book covers the fundamentals needed to design, Install, and commission pipeline projects. This new section along with a thorough update of the existing chapters represents a 30% increase in information over the previous edition. Covers offshore maintenance and maintenance support system + Provides the fundamentals needed to design, Install, and commission pipeline project + Methods and tools to deliver cost effective maintenance cost and system reliability
