Parameter Sensitivity in Nonlinear Mechanics: Theory and Finite Element Computations
Editorial Reviews
There are various methods for the analysis and design of bodies subject to static and dynamic loadings in structural and solid mechanics. Sensitivity analysis is concerned with the relationship between parameters, describing the structure under consideration and the function describing the response of that structure under loading conditions. This book addresses the finite element computational techniques typical of sensitivity analysis for solid mechanics systems with any nonlinearity. It is an attempt to combine theoretical modelling techniques with effective computer implementation: besides the theory many suitable finite element codes have been developed by the authors and used for computing examples discussed in the text.
From the Publisher
Addressing nonlinear sensitivity problems in a consistent manner, this book analyses solid mechanics systems with any nonlinearity, such as large deformations, buckling and post-buckling, plasticity and viscoplasticity, nonlinear dynamics and nonlinear transient heat conduction. Beside the theory and results of numerical computations presented in the book, some finite element programs used for solving the examples .

Structural Analysis - Finite Elements: Their Design and Performance
CRC; 1 edition | October 28, 1993 | ISBN: 0824791622 | 552 pages | PDF | 108mb
In this work, MacNeal examines why finite elements sometimes fail and how element designers have corrected their failures. It includes quantitative analyses of failure modes and illustrations of possible side effects found in proposed remedies, providing a practical understanding of finite element performance. The book is designed to enable users and practitioners to identify and circumvent the major flaws of finite elements, such as locking, patch-test failure, spurious models, rigid-body failure, induced anisotropy and shape sensitivity.

Irrigation Management - Burton
Irrigation Management
By Martin Burton
* Publisher: CABI
* Number Of Pages: 392
* Publication Date: 2010-03-25
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1845935160
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781845935160
In many countries irrigated agriculture consumes a large proportion of the available water resources, often over 70% of the total. There is considerable pressure to release water for other uses, and as a sector irrigated agriculture will have to increase its efficiency and productivity of water use. Drawing on the author's 30 years of experience in some 28 countries, this book offers knowledge for the management of irrigation and drainage systems, including traditional technical areas of systems operation and maintenance, and expanding managerial, institutional and organizational aspects. Chapters provide guidelines to improve management, operation and maintenance processes, which move management thinking out of traditional public-sector mindsets to a more customer-focussed, performance-oriented service delivery. As a practical guide to improve efficiency and productivity in irrigated agriculture, this book will be essential reading for irrigation managers and technicians as well as students and policymakers in water management, agriculture and sustainable development.

Structural Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization volume 1 & 2
Structural design sensitivity analysis concerns the relationship between design variables available to the design engineer and structural responses determined by the laws of mechanics. The dependence of response measures such as displacement, stress, strain, natural frequency, buckling load, acoustic response, frequency response, noise-vibration-harshness (NVH), thermo-elastic response, and fatigue life on the material property, sizing, component shape, and configuration design variables is defined through the governing equations of structural mechanics. In this 2-volume set, first- and second- order design sensitivity analyses are presented for static and dynamics responses of both linear and nonlinear elastic structural systems, including elasto-plastic and frictional contact problems.
Book I
Structural Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization 1
Springer | ISBN: 038723232X | 2004-12-08 | PDF | 482 pages | 3 Mb
Book 1 introduces structural design concepts that include the CAD-based design model, design parameterization, performance measures, costs, and constraints. It also discusses design sensitivity analysis of linear structural systems, and discrete and continuum design sensitivity analysis methods.
Book 2
K. K. Choi, Nam-Ho Kim, K.K. Choi, "Structural Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization, Vol. 2"
Springer | 2009 | ISBN: 0387233369 | 388 pages | PDF | 4 MB
Book 2 covers design sensitivity analysis of nonlinear structural systems using continuum design sensitivity analysis methods. It also discusses practical design tools and applications; sizing and shape design parameterization, design velocity field computation, numerical implementation of the sensitivity for general-purpose code development, and various other practical design applications.

BRIDGES: The Science and Art of the World’s Most Inspiring Structures
Oxford University Press, USA | March 1, 2010 | ISBN-10: 0199543593 | 288 pages | PDF | 2.4 mb
In this fascinating exploration for lay readers, Blockley lucidly explains both the basic forces at work on every bridge—tension, compression, and shear—and the structural elements combating those forces: beams, arches, trusses, and suspension cables. He succeeds in his desire to read a bridge like a book.

Editorial Reviews
The author is to be congratulated on the large number of examples he cites, drawn from many parts of the world and with excellent UK representation. Geographical Association 2/01
Although dealing with highly complex phenomena, the content of this volume is readily accessible by non-specialists, those in management roles, or those generally seeking a better understanding of geohazard phenomena. The Australasian Journal of Disaster and Trauma Studies Volume 2001/2
The discussion of hazards is both Comprehensive and critical and Bell does a good job of clarifying the complexity and uncertainty inherent in the study of geohazards. This critical focus further enhances the utility of this volume as an aid to comprehensive all-hazards planning. The Australasian Journal of Disaster and Trauma Studies Volume 2001/2
...an essential resource for those in emergency management and planning. The Australasian Journal of Disaster and Trauma Studies Volume 2001/2
...an excellent and accessible review of diverse hazard phenomena and one that should be regarded as essential reading for anyone requiring a detailed and comprehensive summery of hazard phenomena and who is grappling with the complexities of developing all-hazards plans and response capabilities. The Australasian Journal of Disaster and Trauma Studies Volume 2001/2
Geological Hazards is a welcome and valuable addition to the literature covering this subject. Its wide and balanced approach to the subject will be of great use to educators, researchers and planners and fills a clear gap in the subject. It is very well written and as an accessible and informative text interested undergraduates will read it avidly. The Geographical Journal 2002
