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.

It is clear that hydraulic research is developing beyond traditional civil engineering to satisfy increasing demands in natural hazards assessment and also environmental research. Our ability to describe processes in nature rests on the observation and experimental methods as well as on theoretical basics of various disciplines. Under such conditions experimental methods draw from various areas of human activities and research, i.e. from physics, biology, chemistry, aerospace research, oceanic research etc. The current volume is the result of a meeting that took place during the 30th International School of Hydraulics in Poland and presents both the state-of-the-art and ongoing research projects in which experimental methods play a key role. Authors from numerous leading laboratories and from various countries guarantee a representative sample of different studies at the frontier of the field

This best practice guide has been developed by the Fire Resistant Glazing Group (FRGG) of the GGF to help all those who specify, design, supply, install, and depend on fire-resistant glazed systems. We also have in mind regulators and inspection authorities whose task it is to enforce regulations as they apply to protection against fire, as well as insurers whose prime concern is property protection and risk management.
The fire environment is hostile and its effects can be catastrophic for both life and property. The occurrence and growth of fire is also essentially unpredictable and uncertain. It is therefore critical that the products we provide for fire-resistance measure up to the highest possible standards concerning both the level of performance and the consistency and reliability of performance. In that respect we have a shared duty of care with all those involved in the chain from specification through to installation.
The FRGG represents a broad cross-section of the fire-resistant glazing industry. Members include representatives of manufacturers and distributors of glass, glazing seals and frames, product testing authorities, certification bodies, and glaziers. We have pooled our collective expertise and knowledge to provide a unique, definitive guide on behalf of the industry. All members of the FRGG committee have participated in its development and endorse its content.
A primary objective for the FRGG is to lead by example in setting appropriate standards for the fire-resistant glazing industry and to encourage the widespread adoption of these standards. We hope that our best practice guide is a step along this road. In this respect we hope to work with organisations such as National Building Specification Ltd in assisting designers and specifiers to develop appropriate specifications for their buildings. We therefore intend that this guide will provide additional advice and guidance in support of the NBS L40 document concerning the specification of glazing where specialist fire-resistant glazed systems are required.
