This volume contains the full-length papers presented in the 3rd International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering (COMPDYN 2011) that was held on May 25-28, 2011 on the Corfu island, Greece. COMPDYN 2011 is one of the thematic Conferences of the European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences (ECCOMAS) and a Special Interest Conference of the International Association for Computational Mechanics (IACM).
COMPDYN 2011 has been also promoted by the European Committee on Computational Solid and Structural Mechanics (ECCSM) of ECCOMAS. The purpose of the Conference was to bring together the scientific communities of Computational Mechanics, Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering in an effort to facilitate the exchange of ideas in topics of mutual interests and to serve as a platform for establishing links between research groups with complementary activities.

SCI P361 Steel Building Design Introduction to the Eurocodes
Size: < 1.0 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: The Steel Construction Institute | Year: 2009 | pages: 37 | ISBN: 13: 978-1 85942-180-2
The design of steel framed buildings in the UK, including those where composite (steel and concrete) construction is used, has, since 1990, generally been in accordance with
the British Standard BS 5950. However, that Standard is due to be withdrawn in March 2010; it will be replaced by the corresponding Parts of the Structural Eurocodes.
The Eurocodes are a set of structural design standards, developed by CEN (European Committee for Standardisation) over the last 30 years, to cover the design of all types of structures in steel, concrete, timber, masonry and aluminium. In the UK, they are published by BSI under the designations BS EN 1990 to BS EN 1999; each of these ten Eurocodes is published in several Parts and each Part is accompanied by a National Annex that implements the CEN document and adds certain UK-specific provisions.
SCI, BCSA and Corus* have undertaken the preparation of a series of guidance publications to assist designers in the design of steel-framed buildings in accordance with the Eurocodes and this publication is the first in that series.
This publication offers a general overview of design to the Eurocodes but does not give detailed guidance. The author of the publication is Miss M E Brettle, assisted by Mr D C Iles and Mr A L Smith, all of The Steel Construction Institute.
The preparation of this guide was funded by Tata Steel Europe*, and their support is gratefully acknowledged.

Geographic Information Systems are computer-based systems for geographic analysis. They have been developed over the past twenty five years and are now widely used. A recent research direction has been the development of geocomputation , representing computer-based geographical analysis beyond the traditional bounds of GIS.
In geocomputation, the computer is the research environment itself, not merely a tool. A key to geocomputation it that highly powered computing can be used with sufficient data to avaid traditional parametric approaches altogether. The term geocomputation includes the use of computer-based techniques such as artificial neural networks, genetic programming and fuzzy logic, but in a geographical context.
This new book in the prestigious Innovations in GIS series, presents the latest research in geocomputational techniques as presented in the GIS UK Annual Conference.

This book concentrates on the mathematical theory of plasticity and fracture, and presents it in a thermomechanical framework. It follows the macroscopic, phenomenological approach, which proposes equations abstracted from generally accepted experimental facts, studies the adequacy of the consequences drawn from these equations to those facts, and then provides useful tools for designers and engineers. Many examples of plasticity and fracture are presented, and each chapter concludes with problems for students.

This classic offers a meticulous account of the theory of finite elasticity. It covers the application of the theory to the solution of boundary-value problems, as well as the analysis of the mechanical properties of solid materials capable of large elastic deformations. Setting is purely isothermal.

While the existing literature on offshore structures touch on model testing, a comprehensive text discussing the design, construction, instrumentation, testing and analysis of the physical model is lacking. This book fills that vacuum and provides, through its survey of the theoretical and practical aspects of physical modeling, an in-depth coverage of the technology of model testing. Its usefulness runs through the entire field of engineering, reaching far beyond its focus on offshore construction; and its breadth of scope should appeal not only to engineers and naval architects but to scientists interested in structural or hydraulic testing as well.

Author: J. a. Santos, R. Fuller, Jorge A. Santos | Size: 17 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Emerald Group Publishing Limited | Year: 2002 | Pages: 342 | ISBN: 0080434126, 9780080434124
Humans are highly mobile but at a price: over a million people are killed annually on the road, at least 30 times as many are injured, of whom one in ten may be permanently disabled. How can we design a road or highway or transport system so as to provide both a high level of mobility and a high level of safety? For too long, from the perspective of the road user, highway engineers have had to employ their intuitions, personal experiences, shared "know-how" and a "suck-it-and-see" approach in many elements of highway design. Now the science of human behavior can provide both fundamental knowledge and principles to enable matching roadway and transport system design to human strengths, limitations and variability in performance; an understanding of human contributory factors in accidents; and the undertaking of informed safety audits and reviews. This book aims to help you ask the right questions about the issues raised.

Materials for High Temperature Power Generation and Process Plant Applications
Author: Staff, M. McLean and A Strang | Size: 8.6 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Whitehurst & Clark | Year: 2000 | Pages: 351 | ISBN: 1861251033, 1861250975, 9781861251039 , 9781861250971
These are the proceedings of the fourth in a series of specialist international conferences on the microstructure of high temperature materials, held at Imperial College, London in September 1998. The papers address various aspects of the modelling of the microstructural evolution of creep resistant materials due to high temperature service exposure. The continuing importance of this subject was evident from the diversity of contributions which attracted 80 delegates from 15 countries.
