ISBN: 3642005845
483 pages
PDF | 10,3 MB
This edited volume addresses the importance of mathematics in wave-related research, and its tutorial style contributions provide educational material for courses or seminars.
It presents highlights from research carried out at the Centre for Nonlinear Studies in Tallinn, Estonia, the Centre of Mathematics for Applications in Oslo, Norway, and by visitors from the EU project CENS-CMA.
The example applications discussed include wave propagation in inhomogeneous solids, liquid crystals in mesoscopic physics, and long ship waves in shallow water bodies. Other contributions focus on specific mathematical approaches, namely the pseudospectral method, the treatment of Maxwell equations, and scalar conservation laws.

Modeling and Computation of Boundary-Layer Flows: Laminar, Turbulent and Transitional

Modeling and Computation of Boundary-Layer Flows: Laminar, Turbulent and Transitional
Tuncer Cebeci, Jean Cousteix,
Boundary Layers in Incompressible and Compressible Flows
Springer
2005
ISBN: 354024459X
PDF 20,5 MB
502 pages
This second edition of Modeling and Computation of Boundary Layer Flows extends the topic to include compressible flows including the energy equation and non-constant fluid properties in the continuity and momentum equations. The necessary additions are included in new chapters, leaving the first nine chapters to serve as an introduction to incompressible flows that can be used as an introduction to computational fluid dynamics with emphasis on the solution of the boundary-layer equations and the modeling and computation of boundary-layer flows. It also provides readers with a good understanding of the basic principles of fluid dynamics and numerical methods. A variety of readers, including undergraduate and graduate students, teachers or scientists working in aerodynamics or hydrodynamics will find the text interesting. The subjects covered in this book include laminar and, turbulent boundary layers and laminar–turbulent transition. The viscous–inviscid coupling between the boundary layer and the inviscid flow is also addressed. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional incompressible flows are considered. Physical and numerical aspects of boundary-layer flows are described in detail and a large number of homework problems are included. The book is accompanied by computer programs to solve boundary layer equations, the Orr-Sommerfeld equation and to compute transitions. Those programs can be used for classroom work but also for industry applications. Additional programs for three-dimensional flows are available from the first author.

Structural Fire Design to EC3 & EC4, comparison to BS5950
info:
This guide provides background information, design tables and useful guidance on Part 1.2 ‘Structural Fire Design’ of Eurocodes 3 and 4, dealing with structural design in steel and composite construction respectively. This report is presented in the form of a guide on structural fire design, and makes cross-reference to the relevant clauses of the Eurocodes and to their forthcoming UK National Application Documents. Detailed comparison is made with the relevant British Standard, BS 5950: Part 8, in order to assist designers in interpreting the Eurocodes for UK practice.

Fundamentals of Fire Protection for the Safety Professional
Lon H. Ferguson CSP,
Government Institutes 2005
ISBN-10: 0865879885
304 Pages
PDF 1,1 MB
Fundamentals of Fire Protection for the Safety Professional takes an in-depth look at fire hazards in the workplace from the substances required to do business to the building construction itself and provides practical fire safety principles that can be applied in any work environment. Readers will learn how to develop emergency action plans and fire prevention plans, implement effective alarm and detection systems and fire extinguishment systems, and develop a comprehensive fire program management plan that is in compliance with Federal Emergency Management Agency, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Environmental Protection Agency, and National Fire Protection Association standards.

Guidance on meeting the Robustness Requirements in Approved Document A (2004 Edition)
info:
This publication provides guidance on designing hot-rolled steel framed buildings to avoid disproportionate collapse. Consideration of disproportionate collapse is required for all buildings in order to satisfy Requirement A3 of Part A of the Building Regulations. Guidance for each of the four classes of building specified in Approved Document A (2004 edition) is provided. The guidance includes explanation of the requirements, advice on which Clauses of BS 5950-1:2000 are applicable to each building type, and practical guidance concerning tying of the structural frame to provide robustness.

info:
The reality of threats to the safety of tall and large buildings was starkly demonstrated by the unprecedented events at the World Trade Center in New York on 11 September 2001. Had these events not occurred, the World Trade Center would no doubt have continued to give many years of excellent service. The buildings were not unsafe by any criterion hitherto regarded as being credible in peacetime.
This Report examines what can be learned from the extreme events of 11 September 2001 for the future design of new buildings and the appraisal of existing ones. The purpose is to assist owners and operators of tall/large buildings and their professional advisers to play their part in reacting to the new threats to the safety of building occupants. The Report presents therefore initial recommendations by the Working Group on ‘Safety in Tall Buildings’following review of damage by extreme events to tall/large buildings at the World Trade Center and elsewhere world wide.
