David Wagg, Ian Bond, Paul Weaver, Michael Friswell "Adaptive Structures: Engineering Applications"
Wiley | 2007-07-10 | ISBN: 0470056975 | 314 pages | PDF | 6,6 MB
Adaptive structures have the ability to adapt, evolve or change their properties or behaviour in response to the environment around them. The analysis and design of adaptive structures requires a highly multi-disciplinary approach which includes elements of structures, materials, dynamics, control, design and inspiration taken from biological systems. Development of adaptive structures has been taking place in a wide range of industrial applications, but is particularly advanced in the aerospace and space technology sector with morphing wings, deployable space structures; piezoelectric devices and vibration control of tall buildings.
Bringing together some of the foremost world experts in adaptive structures, this unique text:
includes discussions of the application of adaptive structures in the aerospace, military, civil engineering structures, automotive and MEMS.
presents the impact of biological inspiration in designing adaptive structures, particularly the use of hierarchy in nature, which typically induces multi-functional behavior.
sets the agenda for future research in adaptive structures in one distinctive single volume.
Adaptive Structures: Engineering Applications is essential reading for engineers and scientists working in the fields of intelligent materials, structural vibration, control and related smart technologies. It will also be of interest to senior undergraduate and postgraduate research students as well as design engineers working in the aerospace, mechanical, electrical and civil engineering sectors.

Practical Stress Analysis in Engineering Design, Third Edition (Dekker Mechanical Engineering)
Practical Stress Analysis in Engineering Design, Third Edition (Dekker Mechanical Engineering)
672 pages | CRC; 3 edition (December 12, 2008) | ISBN-10: 1574447130 | PDF | 8,4 Mb
Updated and revised, this book presents the application of engineering design and analysis based on the approach of understanding the physical characteristics of a given problem and then modeling the important aspects of the physical system. This third edition provides coverage of new topics including contact stress analysis, singularity functions, gear stresses, fasteners, shafts, and shaft stresses. It introduces finite element methods as well as boundary element methods and also features worked examples, problems, and a section on the finite difference method and applications. This text is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in mechanical, civil, and aerospace engineering.

note that
i used sap2000 8.33 advanced
and i tested it.
working properly(just like original sap2000 8 version)
if you want to use sap2000 8.33 advanced,you can find this forum

Tri-Directional Seismic Analysis of an Unreinforced Masonry Building With Flexible Diaphragms
Autors: Steven C. Sweeney, Matthew A Horney and Sarah L. Orton
Year: April 2004
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Washington, DC 20314-1000
To undestand the susceptibility that buildings with flexible diaphragm systems have to earthqueakes, their seismic response to tri axial base motions is assessed. The research centers on a tri directional analytical study of a two story half scale unreinforce masonry structure. The study investigates the effect of tri-axial base motions on response of the structure.

This manual covers physical properties, functions, design methods, design details and construction procedures for geotextiles as used in pavements, railroad beds, retaining wall earth embankment, rip-rap, concrete revetment, and drain construction. Geotextile functions described include pavements, filtration and drainage, reinforced embankments, railroads, erosion and sediment control, and earth retaining walls. This manual does not cover the use of other geosynthetics such as geogrids, geonets, geomembranes, plastic strip drains, composite products and products made from natural cellulose fibers.

A DESIGNER'S GUIDE TO DISPLACEMENT-BASED DESIGN OR RC STRUCTURAL WALLS
John W. Wallace, Ph.D. P.E.
Displacement-based design of sender reinforce concrete (RC) walls provides a versatile and flexible design format for evaluating detailing requirements at wall boundaries. The basis of the approach is to use displacement as the primary design parameter to relate overall system response to wall cross section behavior. Use of a displacement-based design format does not preclude the need to evaluate wall flexural and shear strenght requirementes.
