Author: Erwin Stein, René De Borst, Thomas J.R. Hughes | Size: 47,7 MB (3 in 1) | Format:djvu | Publisher: Wiley | Year: 2004 | pages: 2336 | ISBN: 978-0470846995
Over the past four decades computational methods in applied mechanics have developed into valuable tools that are widely used across both industry and academia. The applications are numerous: aerospace structures, civil engineering structures, geotechnics, flow problems, automotive industry, geo-environmental modelling, biomechanics, electromagnetism, metal forming, to name but a few.
This three volume set provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date collection of knowledge about this increasingly important area of engineering science. The Encyclopedia provides a well-rounded and practical knowledge base that will serve as a foundation for the reader's research and practice in developing designs and in understanding, assessing and managing numerical analysis systems.
Containing over 70 in-depth and thoroughly cross referenced articles on key topics from internationally renowned researchers, the Encyclopedia of Computational Mechanics will cover three key areas.
* Volume One: Fundamentals will cover the basic concepts behind discretization, interpolation, error estimation, solvers, computer algebra and geometric modelling.
* Volume Two: Solids and Volume Three: Fluids will build on this foundation with extensive, in-depth coverage of industrial applications.
The main readership for this book will be researchers, research students (PhD. D. and postgraduate) and professional engineers in industrial and governmental laboratories. Academic interest will stem from civil, mechanical, geomechanical, biomedical, aerospace and chemical engineering departments, through to the fields of applied mathematics, computer science and physics.

The analysis of highway bridges such as slab-on-girder bridges, box-girder bridges, cable-stayed bridges etc. is a very complicated undertaking. Analytical methods are applicable only for the simplest structures. Finite element method is the most powerful and versatile tool, which can be applied to analyze any types of bridge and any load cases. However, the efficiency of that method needs to be improved because the finite element solutions usually require too much computer time, too large core storage and too many input data. If a structure has a uniform cross-section and line end supports (in fact, a high proportion of bridges can be simplified to such a structure), the finite strip method has proven to be the most efficient numerical structural analysis method, which employs a series of functions to simulate the variation of displacements in the longitudinal direction of the structure. Thus, the number of dimensions of analysis is reduced by at least one. Consequently, the computer time, storage and input data are reduced significantly. Since this method was first published in 1968, it has been extensively used for linear and nonlinear, static and dynamic analysis of rectangular, skew and curved slab bridges, slab-on girder bridges box-girder bridges etc. In the present study, the following efforts are made: (1) Extending the finite strip method to the analysis of continuous haunched slab-on-girder bridges and box-girder bridges. (2) Extending the spline finite strip method to the analysis of continuous haunched slab-on-girder bridges and box-girder bridges. (3) Extending the finite strip method to nonlinear analysis of cable-stayed bridges. (4) Improving the efficiency of geometrically nonlinear finite strip analysis of plates. (5) Improving the accuracy of materially nonlinear finite strip analysis of reinforced concrete slabs. (6) Combining the finite strip method with finite element method and boundary element method for analysis of rectangular plates with some irregularities. A number of numerical examples will show the accuracy and efficiency of the methods developed in the present study.

This Standard specifies requirements for design and construction of carbon and carbonmanganese
steel pipelines and associated piping and components that are used to transmit
single-phase and multi-phase hydrocarbon fluids, such as natural and manufactured gas,
liquefied petroleum gas, natural gasoline, crude oil, natural gas liquids and liquid petroleum
products.
The principles are expressed in practical rules and guidelines for use by competent persons.
The fundamental principles and the practical rules and guidelines set out in AS 2885.1,
AS 2885.2, AS 2885.3 and AS 2885.5 are the basis on which an engineering assessment is
to be made where these Standards do not provide detailed requirements appropriate to a
specific item.
NOTE: AS 2885.4 for offshore submarine pipeline systems is a standalone document.

Product Description
Serving as both text and reference manual, this text connects traditional design-oriented topics, the introduction of modal analysis, and the use of MATLAB. The author provides an unequaled combination of the study of conventional vibration with the use of vibration design, analysis and testing in various engineering applications. Special-interest windows utilized throughout the text placed at points where prior or background information summaries are required. Remind readers of essential information pertinent to the text material, preventing them from flipping to previous chapters or reference texts for formulas or other information. Examines topics that reflect some of the recent advances in vibration technology, changes in ABET criteria and the increased importance of both engineering design and modal analysis. Incorporates MATLAB Vibration Toolbox throughout allowing readers to conduct and explore vibration analysis. Toolbox offers professional quality computer analyses including basics, introduction to model analysis with actual experimental data files and finite elements. Readers are challenged with over 65 computer problems (645 problems in all) including use of manufacture's design charts, measurement analysis, and matrix eigenvalue computing for frequencies and modes. Ideal for readers with an interest in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics.

Hello,
I am looking for the book:
PRESTRESSED CONCRETE DESIGN AND PRACTICE
VERNON MARSHALL
JOHN M. ROBBERTS
Concrete Society of Southern Africa
Prestressed Concrete Division
Midrand, South Africa
I have only 178 pages from that book and its only 4 chapters.
TOC contains 11 chapters and appendixes.
The examples are based on Eurocode 0, Eurocode 1 and Eurocode 3, Part 1-3 [16]. Some additional detail
checks are made according to Swedish code for light-gauge metal structures, StBK-N5 [5]
The calculations in the following examples are set out in detail. In most cases, the designer can make
simplifications when he/she has learned by experience which checks are not usually critical.
The examples are worked out in the mathematics program Mathcad, version 2000i. Some of the operators and
notations used in the examples are explained below.

Portal frame - eaves moment connection (example )
This example presents a method for calculating the moment resistance and the shear resistance of an eaves moment connection, as well as the design of welds. For the calculation of the moment resistance a simplified conservative method is used, which makes possible to avoid the calculation of bolt row groups. The connection is a Category A: Bearing type bolted connection using non-preloaded bolts.

use of materials, routing, land acquisition, construction, installation, testing, operation, maintenance and
abandonment of land pipeline systems constructed from steel. The principles of this part of PD 8010 apply
to new pipelines and major modifications to existing pipelines. It is not intended to replace or duplicate
hydraulic, mechanical or structural design manuals.
This part of PD 8010 is applicable to pipelines that may be used to carry oil, gas and other substances that
are hazardous by nature of being explosive, flammable, toxic, reactive, or liable to cause harm to persons
or to the environment. It covers pipelines operating at temperatures between a range of –25 °C and +120 °C
inclusive.
The extent of pipeline systems covered by this part of PD 8010 is shown in Figure 1.
