Structures in contact with fluid flow, whether natural or man-made, are inevitably subject to flow-induced forces and flow-induced vibration: from plant leaves to traffic signs and to more substantial structures, such as bridge decks and heat exchanger tubes. Under certain conditions the vibration may be self-excited, and it is usually referred to as an instability. These instabilities and, more specifically, the conditions under which they arise are of great importance to designers and operators of the systems concerned because of the significant potential to cause damage in the short term. Such flow-induced instabilities are the subject of this book. In particular, the flow-induced instabilities treated in this book are associated with cross-flow, that is, flow normal to the long axis of the structure. The book treats a specific set of problems that are fundamentally and technologically important: galloping, vortex-shedding oscillations under lock-in conditions, and rain-and-wind-induced vibrations, among others. The emphasis throughout is on providing a physical description of the phenomena that is as clear and up-to-date as possible.

Hi everyone!
Is there someone who have a copy of this book "Structural Analysis by Bhatt"?
I have searched the net and haven't found a complete copy of this reference.
Could you please share it to us if you have this interesting ebook.
The objective of this study is to gain insight into mechanisms of soil-structure interaction for buildings adjacent to deep excavations and to find a reliable method to design and monitor deep excavations in urban areas with soft soil conditions. The research focuses on typical Dutch conditions. The main questions are: How can we predict the behaviour of one or more a deep excavation will be constructed? What kind of modelling and/or measurements can be used to predict this effect? This report describes the literature reviewed for this topic and several case studies related to the topic from literature. General damage assessment procedures are also given.
Assessing the response of buildings to excavation-induced deformations involves a combination of geotechnical and structural aspects, such as green field displacements (2D/3D, caused by deep excavations), building behaviour, soil -foundation -building interaction, monitoring techniques and modelling techniques. Each of these topics is described in this study.

I am looking for the following standard - EN 1367-2:2009 Tests for thermal and weathering properties of aggregates - Part 2: Magnesium sulfate test.
If somebody of you have it, please share it.
Thanks in advance.

Does anybody have this book to upload it here for us? I'd apprecciate this much if you can help me.

Hi all, I am looking for a paper, if someone has it or can download it I would be very grateful.
The paper is Belytschko, T., Schwer, L. and Klein, M. J. (1977), Large displacement, transient analysis of space frames. International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, 11: 65–84.

I'm looking for DIN 4150 standards (Structural vibration - Effects of vibration on structures):
DIN 4150-1 - Part 1: Prediction of vibration parameters
DIN 4150-2 - Part 2: Effects on persons in buildings
DIN 4150-3 - Part 3: Effects on structures
The document contains data for use in the determination and assessment of actions caused vibrations on buildings which have been designed for predominantly stationary loading where data of this nature are not given in other standards or directives. The document gives reference values, adherence to which means that damage in the sense of a reduction in the serviceability of a building will not be expected to occur. Reference values for a simplified, approximated assessment are given for some vibration effects.
I'd apprecciate a lot if someone can share those standards with us here.
Those publications are available in ENG and in GER. It doesn't matter in which language the standards are written - just please post them into corresponding section of the forum (to Non-International Code section)

Dear All,
I am looking for an article about pile driving fatigue and woould appreciate if anyone can share it with us. The paper has the following details.
Title: Recommended Design Fatigue Factors for Reassessment of Piles Subjected to Dynamic Actions From Driving Journal: Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering Volume 132, Issue 4, November 2010 , Page 041603
As David Edwards has commented on Amazon: "This book is an incredible reference for a wide array of hydrogeologic topics. Every hydrogeologist or environmental engineer would do well to have this book on his or her shelf"
This is a very useful book that I do regret that I have not scanned before leaving the uni.
If any of us find this book and share it here, I really appreciate that.
Here are the details:
# Paperback: 528 pages
