Does anyone have any knowledge of a book about earthquake shaking tables? I searched the internet and all I could find were movies with tests. Those movies are interesting, but I need to know how a shaking table works, what kind of characteristics they have and so on...

Since we have lot's of postings with links that are difficult to judge if the older links in the THREAD are still valid I have the following suggestion:
Would it be possible to implement a buttom which a member will press when the link has been tested and is known to still be working?
Once pressed the date the link was used will appeared next to the link (this date will be updated as users press the button). I suggest a single button combining both expressions THANK YOU/LINK TESTED however this button should be separate from the THANK YOU button which should remain in place.
Sorry, if my suggestion is too difficult to implement or most of you judged unusefull.
One problem I can see with my suggestion is that I pressume too many members don't even bother pressing the THANK YOU button when they use a link so least will they bother pressing this new button, I have called THANY YOU/LINK TESTED, to tell everyone that the link is still valid, hopefully I am wrong in my pressumption.

Ultrasonic signals are increasingly being used for predicting material behavior, both in an engineering context (detecting anomalies in a variety of structures) and a biological context (examining human bones, body parts and unborn fetuses). Featuring contributions from authors who are specialists in their subject area, this book presents new developments in ultrasonic research in both these areas, including ultrasonic NDE and other areas which go beyond traditional imaging techniques of internal defects. As such, both those in the biological and physical science communities will find this an informative and stimulating read.

Offers designers and users of mechanical systems an overview of structural stiffness and damping and their critical roles in mechanical design. The text assesses the relationship between stiffness and damping parameters in mechanical systems and structural materials. An accompanying disk contains detailed analyses of stiffness- and damping-critical systems.

Editorial Reviews
Review
Stiffness and Damping in Mechanical Design is well written and would make an excellent reference book and a textbook for review and continuing education courses on the subject.
---Applied Mechanics Review
. . .a very detailed and comprehensive discussion of stiffness and damping in structures and structural elements. . ..a great addition to the reference library of any practicing structural or design engineer.

This is a dictionary which provides a clear and concise explanation of terms used in land, property and construction law and management. The four key areas of coverage are: planning/construction law, land law, equity/trusts and finance and administration. It will be a useful reference for property and building professionals and a personal purchase for students of property and construction law on building, construction management, estate management and law courses.
Jack Rostron is an experienced author and editor whose 1997 Spon title Sick Building Syndrome has been well received and widely reviewed. His co-authors contribute the necessary specialist knowledge from their respective fields of teaching and legal practice.

The numerical optimization of practical applications has been an issue of major importance for the last 10 years. It allows us to explore reliable non-trivial configurations, differing widely from all known solutions. The purpose of this book is to introduce the state-of-the-art concerning this issue and many complementary applications are presented.
