This book was released on 2010-10-14 with total page 782 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in scientific computing have made modelling and simulation an important part of the decision-making process in engineering, science, and public policy. This book provides a comprehensive and systematic development of the basic concepts, principles, and procedures for verification and validation of models and simulations. The emphasis is placed on models that are described by partial differential and integral equations and the simulations that result from their numerical solution. The methods described can be applied to a wide range of technical fields, from the physical sciences, engineering and technology and industry, through to environmental regulations and safety, product and plant safety, financial investing, and governmental regulations. This book will be genuinely welcomed by researchers, practitioners, and decision makers in a broad range of fields, who seek to improve the credibility and reliability of simulation results. It will also be appropriate either for university courses or for independent study.

The PBD-I, PBD-II, and PBD-III events in Japan (2009), Italy (2012), and Canada (2017) respectively, were highly successful events for the international earthquake geotechnical engineering community. The PBD events have been excellent companions to the International Conference on Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering (ICEGE) series that TC203 has held in Japan (1995), Portugal (1999), USA (2004), Greece (2007), Chile (2011), New Zealand (2015), and Italy (2019). The goal of PBD-IV is to provide an open forum for delegates to interact with their international colleagues and advance performance-based design research and practices for earthquake geotechnical engineering.

Book Hydro Environmental Analysis

Download or read book Hydro Environmental Analysis written by James L. Martin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 5742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on fundamental principles, Hydro-Environmental Analysis: Freshwater Environments presents in-depth information about freshwater environments and how they are influenced by regulation. It provides a holistic approach, exploring the factors that impact water quality and quantity, and the regulations, policy and management methods that are necessary to maintain this vital resource. It offers a historical viewpoint as well as an overview and foundation of the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics affecting the management of freshwater environments. The book concentrates on broad and general concepts, providing an interdisciplinary foundation. The author covers the methods of measurement and classification; chemical, physical, and biological characteristics; indicators of ecological health; and management and restoration. He also considers common indicators of environmental health; characteristics and operations of regulatory control structures; applicable laws and regulations; and restoration methods. The text delves into rivers and streams in the first half and lakes and reservoirs in the second half. Each section centers on the characteristics of those systems and methods of classification, and then moves on to discuss the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of each. In the section on lakes and reservoirs, it examines the characteristics and operations of regulatory structures, and presents the methods commonly used to assess the environmental health or integrity of these water bodies. It also introduces considerations for restoration, and presents two unique aquatic environments: wetlands and reservoir tailwaters. Written from an engineering perspective, the book is an ideal introduction to the aquatic and limnological sciences for students of environmental science, as well as students of environmental engineering. It also serves as a reference for engineers and scientists involved in the management, regulation, or restoration of freshwater environments.

Book Computational Methods for Reinforced Concrete Structures

Download or read book Computational Methods for Reinforced Concrete Structures written by Ulrich Häußler-Combe and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das vorliegende Buch behandelt die Anwendung numerischer Methoden auf die Berechnung von Stahlbetontragwerken. Rissbildung, Verbundwirkung und nichtlineares zeitabhängiges Spannungs-Dehnungs-Verhalten der Stahlbetonelemente lassen sich mit der Elastizitätstheorie allein nicht darstellen. Die Erfassung solcher Phänomene ist jedoch für die Untersuchung der Grenzzustände der Tragfähigkeit und der Gebrauchstauglichkeit erforderlich. Dieses Buch gibt eine anwendungsbezogene Zusammenfassung der numerischen Methoden einschließlich FEM. Der Schlüssel dazu liegt in der Beschreibung und im Verständnis des Materialverhaltens. Die wichtigsten Materialeigenschaften von Beton und Bewehrungsstahl und ihre Verbundwirkung werden erläutert. Mit diesen Grundlagen werden verschiedene Elemente wie Stäbe, Balken, Stabwerkmodell, Platten, Scheiben und Schalen behandelt. Dabei werden Vorspannung, Rissbildung, nichtlineares Spannung-Dehnungs-Verhalten, Kriechen, Schwinden und Temperatureinwirkungen berücksichtigt. Für alle Tragelemente werden die jeweils geeigneten Methoden hergeleitet. Dynamische Aufgaben und quasi-statische Kurzzeiteinwirkungen sowie vorübergehende Prozesse wie Kriechen und Schwinden werden gelöst. Die Problemstellungen werden anhand von zahlreichen Beispielen veranschaulicht. Diese sind mit dem Programmpaket ConFem berechnet, welches zusammen mit den Eingabedaten unter Open-Source-Bedingungen unter www.concrete-fem.com zur Verfügung steht. Der Autor zeigt die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der numerischen Methoden der Baustatik zur Simulation von Stahlbetontragwerken auf. Ein Buch für Studium, Lehre und Forschung, ebenso wie für Tragwerksplaner und Prüfingenieure.
