Structural Stability: Theory and Implementation
Wai-Fah Chen, E. M. Lui ... Structural Stability: Theory and Implementation is
a practical work that provides engineers and students in structural
engineering or structured mechanics with the background needed to make
the transition from fundamental theory to practical design rules and
computer implementation. Beginning with the basic principles of
structural stability and basic governing equations,Structural Stability is
a concise and comprehensive introduction that applies the principles
and theory of structural stability (which are the basis for structural
steel design) to the solution of practical building frame design
problems.
Special features include: Modern theories of structural stability of members and frames, and a discussion of how these theories may be utilized to provide design rules and calculation techniques for design + Important governing equations and the classical solutions used in design processes + Examples of analytical and numerical methods selected as the most useful and practically applicable methods available + Detailed information on the stability design rules of the 1986 AISC/LRFD Specifications for the design, fabrication, and erection of structural steel for buildings + Dual units (SI and English) with most of the material presented in a non-dimensional format + Fully worked examples, end-of-chapter problems, answers to selected problems, and clear illustrations and tables. Am outstandingly practical resource, Structural Stability offers the reader an understanding of the fundamental principles and theory of structural stability not only in an idealized, perfectly elastic system, but also in an inelastic, imperfect system representative of the actual structural systems encountered in engineering practice.

Dynamics in the Practice of Structural Design
208 pages - Publisher: WIT Press (January 30, 2006)
Language: English - ISBN-10: 1845641612 - ISBN-13: 978-1845641610
Structural dynamics is a diverse theme covering a variety of topics, some of which have direct applications in structural design. Among the latter a clear distinction can be made between those necessary for the engineer in the daily practice of structural design and those related to academic activities, research, and the development of commercial products. Each chapter deals independently with a subject in structural dynamics without a necessary link to the foregoing chapters. This approach allows the reader to go directly to the topic of his interest. Written as an overview of many aspects of structural dynamics, this book is intended for engineers who normally tackle design situations involving dynamic loads with the appropriate computer software in the daily practice of design.

Language: English - ISBN-10: 0471570974 - ISBN-13: 978-0471570974
Covers current design techniques for both allowable stress and new load and resistance factor design (LRFD) approaches recommended by the forthcoming American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials draft specifications. Addresses the need for repair or replacement of 225,000 U.S. highway bridges as well as the need for 70,000 new bridges in the next 15 years.
Source Mechanisms of Earthquakes: Theory and Practice
311 pages - Publisher: Cambridge University Press; 1st edition (June 23, 2014)
Language: English - ISBN-10: 1107040272 - ISBN-13: 978-1107040274
This book presents an innovative new approach to studying source mechanisms of earthquakes, combining theory and observation in a unified methodology, with a key focus on the mechanics governing fault failures. It explains source mechanisms by building from fundamental concepts such as the equations of elasticity theory to more advanced problems including dislocation theory, kinematic models and fracture dynamics. The theory is presented first in student-friendly form using consistent notation throughout, and with full, detailed mathematical derivations that enable students to follow each step. Later chapters explain the widely-used practical modelling methods for source mechanism determination, linking clearly to the theoretical foundations, and highlighting the processing of digital seismological data. Providing a unique balance between application techniques and theory, this is an ideal guide for graduate students and researchers in seismology, tectonophysics, geodynamics and geomechanics, and a valuable practical resource for professionals working in seismic hazard assessment and seismic engineering.
