Does anybody have some publication(s) about TRAFFIC-INDUCED VIBRATION in STRUCTURES? I would appreciate it very much if someone is willing to share any kind of publications a/o books, journals, articles, etc.
Just a note: I'm especially interested in Traffic Induced Vibrations just in Buildings, Houses... (NOT in Bridges, Tanks etc.)
Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional 2011 SP1
Installation
The ESOP for Robot option group, previously unavailable after installation of Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional 2011, has been unblocked.
A problem with Robot™ Extensions Spreadsheet Calculator 2011 running only in demo mode in case Robot™ Extensions Spreadsheet Calculator 2010 was previously installed has been corrected.
Software Usage
Incorrect generation of FE meshes, especially for slabs with openings, has been fixed.
Kinematic constraints are no longer applied during mesh generation when the proper check box in Job Preferences is cleared.
The starting page is no longer blocked by attempts to display corrupted file preview.
Repeated requests to participate in the Customer Involvement Program are no longer displayed.
Characters in HTML notes for non-English languages (such as Greek, Ukrainian, Chinese, and so on) now display correctly.
Problem of displaying empty places in various texts including menu options has been corrected.
Menu customization no longer results in a fatal error.
Calculating story rigidity center for buildings with non-weight walls no longer causes fatal error.
Editing of r/c drawings arrangement is no longer blocked.
Fatal error during r/c beams design for Italian settings has been corrected.
Problem of launching r/c design from Autodesk® Concrete Building Structures software has been corrected.
Improper position of pins while reinforcing ACI beams has been corrected.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: You may use this software for evaluation purposes only.
If you like it, it is strongly suggested you buy it to support the developers.
By any means you may not use this software to make money or use it for commercial purpose.
I am looking for a book in which i can find the methods of damage detection in building structures with numerical examples. I am working on application of vibration control in structure health monitoring of building structures. So anyone who have such stuff related to model updating, damage detection.....thanks
Soil-Structure Interaction of High-rise Building Resting on Soft Soil
ABSTRACT
Taking one real high-rise frame shear-wall structure in Fujian province of China as an example, the influences of soil-structure interaction on the super-structure are studied with ABAQUS procedure. The peak response of absolute acceleration, story drift, moments at beam ends, as well as inner force of columns and shear walls are analyzed under two orthogonal horizontal directions seismic excitations. Then the influences of field nonlinearity on seismic response of high-rise building are summarized and the rationality of reduction factor for soil-structure interaction calculation specified in Chinese seismic code is discussed.
It is concluded that it’s usually safe for most stories of the high-rise frame shear-wall structure when the soil-structure interaction considered according to Chinese seismic code; however, the seismic response

Process Modelling and Simulation with Finite Element Methods
Author: William B. J. Zimmerman | Size: ? MB | Format:PDF | Year: 2004 | pages: 396 | ISBN: ISBN-10: 9812387935, ISBN-13: 978-9812387936
Stability, Vibration and Control of Systems
This book presents a systematic description and case studies of chemical engineering modelling and simulation based on the MATLAB/FEMLAB tools, in support of selected topics in undergraduate and postgraduate programmes that require numerical solution of complex balance equations (ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, nonlinear equations, integro-differential equations). These systems arise naturally in analysis of transport phenomena, process systems, chemical reactions and chemical thermodynamics, and particle rate processes. Templates are given for modelling both state-of-the-art research topics (e.g. microfluidic networks, film drying, multiphase flow, population balance equations) and case studies of commonplace design calculations - mixed phase reactor design, heat transfer, flowsheet analysis of unit operations, flash distillations, etc. The great strength of this book is that it makes modelling and simulating in the MATLAB/FEMLAB environment approachable to both the novice and the expert modeller.

When used together effectively, computer-aided design (CAD) and geospatial information systems (GIS) have a solid track record for streamlining decision making and reducing inefficiencies in the design, planning, and execution of critical operations and projects. And a growing number of engineering tasks in numerous fields—including design, architecture, construction, and asset management—now require the knowledge of many interrelated yet disconnected CAD/GIS tools and task-specific software.
A multidisciplinary resource delineating existing and emerging solutions for CAD/GIS integration issues, CAD and GIS Integration provides a clear understanding of the state of the art in this area of growing importance. It brings together in-depth descriptions of existing and emerging techniques, methodologies, and technologies to examine approaches that enable data and operations interoperability between CAD/GIS. Starting with a review of fundamental concepts and theories, the book:
Addresses contemporary issues and challenges
Provides a collection of helpful methodologies, techniques, and technologies for integrating CAD and GIS
Presents balanced coverage of CAD and GIS technologies and applications
Highlights emerging trends in CAD/GIS integration
Explores the state-of-the-art in the application of CAD and GIS technologies, data, and operations for decision making
From early developments to current trends and future directions, this concise resource allows you to get up to speed quickly on what it takes to get the most of these two dynamic technologies. Numerous example applications of effective CAD/GIS integration provide the understanding needed to improve designs, make better decisions, and reduce or even eliminate costly errors in your next project.
