The author has written this definitive work on the fundamentals of riser mechanics, with the aim of increasing understanding of many aspects of riser static and dynamic behavior. This book is based on the author’s 28 years of experience with riser analysis and, in particular, on his previous publications, some of which have become classics of riser literature. Basic principles are clearly established using several different complementary approaches and the primary parameters that influence riser behavior are identified. This book is a must-own, for anyone who deals with riser design and analysis or with riser technology, from the classroom student to the offshore drilling platform engineer.

Hi
I have a problem to burn iso image file (6.18 GB).
My DVD is only 4.7 GB.
When I insert 4.7 GB DVD to burn iso image file , it say that Not enough space.
How to burn it .
Thanks

Hey Guys, I am starting on my masters thesis, and will work on automatic development of a strut and tie model using topology optimization from a genetic algorithm and finite element model updating.
I am new to the topic, looking for resources , ideas and opinions. I want to work on it because i love coding and very interested in strut and tie modeling.
If anyone has a similar thesis or document I can learn from , I would really appreciate it.
I will be using matlab with comsol , anyone worked with comsol ? i chose it because of its direct link with matlab, which would be easier than ansys.
With the development in the sixties of computer-based analysis methods, the teaching of structural analysis subjects was revolutionized.
The traditional division between structural analysis and structural mechanics became no longer necessary, and instead of teaching a preponderance of solution details it is nowpossible to focus on the underlying theory.
What has been done here is to integrate analysis and mechanics in a systematic presentation which includes the mechanics of a member, the matrix formulation of the equations for a system of members, and solution techniques.
The three fundamental steps in formulating a problem in solid mechanics enforcing equilibrium, relating deformations and displacements, and relating forces and deformations form the basis of the development, and the central theme is to establish the equations for each step and then discuss how the complete set of equations is solved. In this way, a reader obtains a more unified view of a problen1, sees more clearly where the various simplifying assumptions are introduced, and is better prepared to extend the theory.
The objective has been a text suitable for the teaching of modern structural member system analysis, and what is offered is an outgrowth of lecture notes developed in recent years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

The present book has its source in the authors’ wish to create a bridge between the mathematical and the technical disciplines, which need a good knowledge of a strong mathematical tool. The necessity of such an interdisciplinary work drove the authors to publish a first book to this aim with Editura Tehnica, Bucharest, Romania.
The present book is a new, English edition of the volume published in 1999. It contains many improvements concerning the theoretical (mathematical) information, as well as new topics, using enlarged and updated references. Only ordinary differential equations and their solutions in an analytical frame were considered, leaving aside their numerical approach.
The problem is firstly stated in its mechanical frame. Then the mathematical model is set up, emphasizing on the one hand the physical magnitude playing the part of the unknown function and on the other hand the laws of mechanics that lead to an ordinary differential equation or system. The solution is then obtained by specifying the mathematical methods described in the corresponding theoretical presentation. Finally a mechanical interpretation of the solution is provided, this giving rise to a complete knowledge of the studied phenomenon.
The number of applications was increased, and many of these problems appear currently in engineering.

I read several materials related to pushover analysis & they refer to SEAOC's Vision 2000 ( published in 1995 by SEAOC ) for drift limit, performance level & others.
Plz somebody who have SEAOC's Vision 2000 or later code from SEAOC ... plz share.
Thank You!

The proposed book deals with the role of changing groundwater base level on the adjacent hydrological systems. It summarizes, compiles and compares results of current and paleo base levels, using examples from all over the world. A classification is given for marine or continental groundwater base levels with special attention to those below sea level. The factors controlling base level changes and the methods for their determination are elaborated. Holocene and future changes are discussed with their effect on salinization and flushing mechanisms of groundwater. All topics described in the book are accompanied by examples and references from all over the world.
