This innovative new book presents the vast historical sweep of engineering innovation and technological change to describe and illustrate engineering design and what conditions, events, cultural climates and personalities have brought it to its present state. Matthew Wells covers topics based on an examination of paradigm shifts, the contribution of individuals, important structures and influential disasters to show approaches to the modern concept of structure. By demonstrating the historical context of engineering, Wells has created a guide to design like no other, inspirational for both students and practitioners working in the fields of architecture and engineering.

Hi,
I want a guide for an website or any tool that can povide me with the record data of any or the most famous earthquakes, I want the record itself (i.e the time and ground acceleration values) not the accelerograph. thanks
please, you who have access to Structural Engineering and Mechanics, Techo Press (

Proceedings of 10th International Conference on Urban Earthquake Engineering (10CUEE)
Size: 302 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Tokyo Institute of Technology (Global COE Program) | Year: 2013 | pages: 2021
10th CUEE Conference
March 1-2, 2013, Tokyo Institute of Technology
It is a signal pleasure to extend an invitation to our 10th International Conference on Urban Earthquake Engineering (10CUEE) to be held in Tokyo on March 1st and 2nd, 2013. The conference has been convened every March since 2004, under two consecutive five-year Center-of-Excellence (COE) programs headquartered at the Center for Urban Earthquake Engineering (CUEE) here at Tokyo Tech. Our current Global-COE program (August, 2008- March, 2013) is entitled International Urban Earthquake Engineering Center for Mitigating Seismic Mega Risk.

Wind Tunnel Designs and Their Diverse Engineering Applications
Author: N. A. Ahmed | Size: 14,32 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: InTech | Year: Feb, 2013 | pages: 228 | ISBN: 9535110477
This book is intended to be a valuable addition to students, engineers, scientists, industrialists, consultants and others providing greater insight into wind tunnel designs and their enormous research potential. It is a compilation of works from world experts on subsonic and supersonic wind tunnel designs, applicable to a diverse range of disciplines.
The book is organized in two sections.
The first section comprises of three chapters on various aspects of stationary and portable subsonic wind tunnel designs, followed by one chapter on supersonic wind tunnel and the final chapter discusses a method to address unsteadiness effects of fan blade rotation.
The second section contains four chapters regarding wind tunnel applications across a multitude of engineering fields including civil, mechanical, chemical and environmental engineering
Contents:
Preface
Section 1 Wind Tunnel Design
1 Design Methodology for a Quick and Low-Cost Wind Tunnel
2 Design Features of a Low Turbulence Return Circuit Subsonic Wind Tunnel Having Interchangeable Test Sections
3 Portable Wind Tunnels for Field Testing of Soils and Natural Surfaces
4 Design and Development of a Gas Dynamics Facility and a Supersonic Wind Tunnel
5 A Method of Evaluating the Presence of Fan-Blade-Rotation Induced Unsteadiness in Wind Tunnel Experiments
