Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the Three Dimensional (3-D) Stability Analysis/Design (3DSAD) computer program. Both general purpose and specific modules are discussed. Currently, the four general modules are Geometry, Loads, Analysis, and Free Body. The General Geometry Module defines geometry and performs volume, weight, and centroid computations. It also utilizes interactive computer graphics. The General Loads Module computes forces and moments for the defined loads on a general 3-D structure using pressure volumes, surface loads, and point loads. It also allows the definition of different load cases. The General Analysis Module performs overturning, bearing, and sliding computations for any planar or near planar base. The Free Body Module clips the structure and loads by an arbitrary plane to produce a free body so that computations can be performed on the new part. In addition to the general capabilities that are useful for any 3-D structure, 3DSAD provides for simplified geometry and loads input, along with criteria check and design modules, for dams (CDAMS). Finally, examples of locks done by practicing engineers are provided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This module of the three-dimensional stability analysis/design program (3DSAD) enables the engineer to describe the geometry of a three-dimensional structure, to interactively plot the desired structure, and then to obtain volume, weight, and centroid information for the structure. The general ways in which geometry is described are (a) two-dimensional cross sections extended in the third dimension, (b) eight-node brick elements, and (c) clusters of planar polygonal patches. Curved segments can be either circular, elliptical, or quadratic. Hidden lines in a view can be either deleted or dashed. (Author).

This book was released on 1989 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 3DSAD (Three Dimensional Stability Analysis Design) performs an overturning and sliding stability analysis for complex three-dimensional structures. Specific structure types and general shapes can be handled. General modules are: geometry--to define, display, and compute mass properties; loads-- to define, display, and compute loads; analysis--to perform a base analysis assuming a rigid body on an elastic foundation; and free-body--to use clipping capability for a free-body analysis. The Free-Body Module is a utility written to provide the user with the ability to perform an analysis of a structure at elevations or cross sections other than its base. It produces a free body containing a new definition of geometry and loads, by allowing the user the ability to clip the structure with a single plane or multiple planes. Output consists of a file containing the clipped geometry and loads data for use with the General Geometry or General Loads Module and a base file used with the forces and moments computed from the first data file to perform an analysis with the General Analysis Module. The General Analysis Module is used to produce a base pressure computation that is an approximation of the internal stresses in the structure at the clipping plane. Keywords: Computer-aided design, Free-body computation, Interactive graphics, Stress analysis, Structural stability, Three-dimensional graphics.

This book was released on 1989 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer program 3DSAD does an overturning and sliding stability analysis for complex three-dimensional structures. Specific structure types and general shapes can be handled. General modules are: geometry--to define, display, and compute mass properties; loads--to define, display, and compute loads; analysis--to perform a base analysis assuming a rigid body on an elastic foundation; and free-body--to use clipping capability for a free-body analysis. Geometry is defined by two-dimensional cross sections swept or grown linearly or axisymmetrically in third dimension, eight-node brick finite elements, and clusters of planar faces and bicubic patches. Loads are computed by giving a direction to a volume defined in the General Geometry Module format, specifying a point load, and simplifying load commands wherever soil and water levels are specified. Geometry and loads may be displayed by color wire-frame, hidden line, or continuous tone plots, and load cases may be defined.

Book excerpt: This module of the three dimensional (3-D) stability analysis/design program (3DSAD) enables the engineer to describe the geometry of the 3-D structure, to interactively plot the desired structure, and then to obtain volume, weight, and centroid information for the structure. The general ways in which geometry is described are (a) two dimensional cross sections extended in the third dimension, (b) eight node brick elements, and (c) clusters of planar polygonal and bicubic patches. Curved segments can be circular, elliptical, or quadratic when using blocks and cubic when using patches. Objects can be copied, translated, rotated, or reflected about an axis as well. An arbitrary clipping plane can also be passed through the geometry. Keywords: Computer aided design; Structural analysis; Structural design.

Book excerpt: This manual provides guidance for the safe design and economical construction of retaining and flood walls. This manual is intended primarily for retaining walls which will be subjected to hydraulic loadings such as flowing water, submergence, wave action, and spray, exposure to chemically contaminated atmosphere, and/or severe climatic conditions. For the design of retaining walls which will not be subjected to hydraulic loadings or severe environmental conditions as described above, TM S-8l8-l may be used for computing the loadings and evaluating the stability of the structure.
