SM Handbook, Vol. 13A: Corrosion: Fundamentals, Protection and Prevention
The purpose of ASM Handbook, Volume 13A: Corrosion: Fundamentals, Testing, and Protection is to help engineers and designers understand corrosion so that they can solve existing corrosion problems and prevent future ones. It should be the first book you select when researching a corrosion problem. The coverage of the volume has been completely revised to ensure that it is the most comprehensive, practical, and up-to-date resource available. Each article is indexed to other appropriate sections of the Handbook, and each provides a road map to the thousands of individual bibliographical references that were used to compile the information.

•Contains new chapters on corrosion fundamentals, the passivity of metals, high temperature corrosion, and the corrosion of aluminum alloys
•Covers fundamental characteristics, such as hydrogen in metals, anodic dissolution, pitting and crevice corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, and corrosion fatigue
•Describes how to reduce corrosion in nuclear systems, microelectronics, and data-storage devices
Summary
Updated to include recent results from intensive worldwide research efforts in materials science, surface science, and corrosion science, Corrosion Mechanisms in Theory and Practice, Third Edition explores the latest advances in corrosion and protection mechanisms. It presents a detailed account of the chemical and electrochemical surface reactions that govern corrosion as well as the link between microscopic forces and macroscopic behavior.
Revised and expanded, this edition includes four new chapters on corrosion fundamentals, the passivity of metals, high temperature corrosion, and the corrosion of aluminum alloys. The first half of the book covers basic aspects of corrosion, such as entry of hydrogen into metals, anodic dissolution, localized corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, and corrosion fatigue. Connecting the theoretical aspects of corrosion mechanisms to practical applications in industry, the second half of the text discusses corrosion inhibition, atmospheric corrosion, microbially induced corrosion, corrosion in nuclear systems, corrosion of microelectronic and magnetic data-storage devices, and organic coatings.
With contributions from leading academic and industrial researchers, this bestselling book continues to provide a thorough understanding of corrosion mechanisms—helping you solve existing corrosion challenges and prevent future problems.

Introduction to Cable Roof Structures
2nd Edition
Description
The second edition of this book provides structural engineers with a concise introduction to the architectural, structural and technological aspects of cable roofs, and supplies sufficient information for engineers to carry out their own designs. The improved methods for generating wind and earthquake histories have been included as the trend in modern design codes seem increasingly to require that dynamic response of other forms of non-linear structures such as guyed masts is considered at the design stage. Other additions include an expansion of the chapter on dynamic analysis into three separate chapters, one dealing with frequency domain analysis of weakly non-linear structures, another with time domain analysis of more non-linear structures, and a third with the level and mathematical modelling of damping.

This book contains some new developments in the area of Structural Dynamics. Its contents cover both theo- retical aspects as well as practical applications and hence can be utilized by students, researchers, as well as practising engineers. The volume concentrates on four major areas, i.e. on load modeling with particular emphasis on earthquake and windloading, structural response analysis, computational reliability procedures, and finally on practical application. This includes e.g. the dynamic analysis of liquid storage tanks under earthquake excitation, the dynamic analysis of the blast procedure for tunneling, the design and analysis of tall slender industrial chimneys under wind loading as well as the analysis of containment structures of nuclear power plants under earthquake conditions. It is shown, that the theoretical procedures as described in the previous chapters may be readily applied to practical problems.
Pile Foundations are an essential basis for many structures. It is vital that they be designed with the utmost reliability, because the cost of failure is potentially huge. Covering a whole range of design issues relating to pile design, this book presents economical and efficient design solutions and demonstrates them using real world examples. Coverage includes nonlinear response of single piles to vertical or torsional loading and to cyclic lateral loading, as well as prediction of nonlinear response of lateral pile groups, vertically loaded pile groups and the design of slope stabilising piles. Most solutions are provided as closed-form expressions.

This is a valuable resource for students of geotechnical engineering taking courses in foundations and a vital tool for engineers designing pile foundations.

Abstract (Summary)
A full-scale shake table test of a 5-story steel moment frame building was carried out as part of a collaborative NEES/E-Defense research program. The building was tested in three configurations: isolated with triple pendulum bearings (TPB), isolated with lead rubber bearings combined with cross linear sliders (which is not discussed in this dissertation), and fixed base. The test provided full-scale response data of both the isolation system and the isolated structure and demonstrated the efficiency of the isolation system in reducing the demands in the isolated structure. A 3-dimensional TPB element with a general friction model that accounts for the variation of friction coefficients on both velocity and vertical force was developed to predict the response of individual TPB and the overall isolation system. The element accounts for both vertical-horizontal coupling behavior and bidirectional coupling of TPB. The horizontal behavior of the element is based on a series combination of bidirectional elastic-plastic springs and the circular gap elements. The new TPB element was verified by the full scale test data and has been implemented in OpenSees so that it is available for general use. The analytical model of the specimen building was also developed and validated by the test data from both the isolated base and fixed base tests. The following modeling assumption were shown to best present the response characteristics of the tested structure: (1) beam were modeled as nonlinear elements with resultant composite sections, (2) moment connection were modeled using a Krawinkler panel zone model, and (3) energy dissipation was represented by Rayleigh damping calibrated to include higher mode effects observed in the test data, along with additional interstory dampers.
