The ability of a structural assembly to carry loads and forces determines how stable it will be over time. Viewing structural assemblages as comprising columns, beams, arches, rings, and plates, this book will introduce the student to both a classical and advanced understanding of the mechanical behavior of such structural systems under load and how modeling the resulting strains can predict the overall future performance-the stability-of that structure. While covering traditional beam theory, the book is more focused on elastica theory in keeping with modern approaches. This text will be an expanded and updated version a similar, previously published book, but with pedagogical improvements and updated analytical methods.
This engineering textbook will provide a focused treatment on the study of how structures behave and perform when under stress loading, including plastic deformation and buckling. All advanced engineering students studying engineering mechanics, structural analysis and design, fatigue and failure, and other related subjects need to have this knowledge, and this book will provide it in a thorough and coherent fashion. Written by two of the world's leading engineering professors in this subject area, the pedagogy has been classroom-tested over many years and should find a receptive readership among both students and instructors.
* An understandable introduction to the theory of structural stability, useful for a wide variety of engineering disciplines, including mechanical, civil and aerospace engineering
* Covers both static and dynamic loads, for both conservative and nonconservative systems
* Emphasizes elastic behavior under loads, including vertical buckling, torsional buckling and nonlinear affects of structural system buckling and stability
* Case examples to illustrate real-world applications of Stability Theory
When we search for something, the results which we get are indicated in the yellow background which makes the search word invisible like the one screenshot which I took (which is only to show as example). I just wanted to say that it would be better if it can be changed to some other light color so that the search word is also clearly visible. Just as a suggestion I am sorry I really don't know if its a valid suggestion.
Hollow Structural Section: Connections and Trusses - A Design Guide
Hollow Structural Section: Connections and Trusses - A Design Guide
Second Edition (June 1997)
J.A. Packer and J.E. Henderson
In 1992, CISC introduced the world's first comprehensive SI Limit States Design guide for Hollow Structural Section (HSS) connections. Written by Dr. Jeff Packer, a world renowned HSS researcher, and Mr. Ted Henderson, an expert in fabrication, welding and erection of world class steel structures utilizing HSS members and connections, the 1992 Guide quickly became the reference for information on HSS connections for many -- world wide.
CISC is proud to introduce their latest, most comprehensive and up-to-date book on HSS, Hollow Structural Section Connections and Trusses - A Design Guide.
Based on CAN/CSA-S16.1-94, this 464-page Design Guide is a MUST for all designers, fabricators, detailers, architects, engineers, and others dealing with HSS construction.
All 13 chapters are expanded and updated to current specifications and in accordance with current international research information. Some of the new material contained in this Design Guide is as follows:
* Design tables listing the connection resistance for common T, gap K and overlap K connections for both circular and square HSS members.
* Multiplanar connections: XX, TX, TT, KK with circular HSS members.
* Blind bolting into HSS members.
* Power-nailed HSS member splices.
* New tighter minimum radii for bending HSS members.
* Complete update of weld resistances to S16.1-94; effective lengths of welds; Default vs. Simple vs. Precise weld sizing.
* More design examples: K connection concrete-filled vs. unfilled; XX connection; TX connection.
* More wide flange beam-to-HSS column connections and plate-to-HSS connections

Does anyone know if it is possible to select hidden entities such as nodes in Straus7 without using the select by region option. I have looked everywhere but it looks like if you want to use the select tool to click and drag a region you want to select then only visible entities will be selected. Surely there must be a easy way to do this so ALL entities as selected?:dash2:
