Book excerpt: These two volumes of proceedings contain nine invited keynote papers and 130 contributed papers presented at the Third International Conference on Advances in Steel Structures (ICASS '02) held on 9-11 December 2002 in Hong Kong, China. The conference is a sequel to the First and the Second International Conferences on Advances in Steel Structures held in Hong Kong in December 1996 and 1999. The conference provides a forum for discussion and dissemination by researchers and designers of recent advances in the analysis, behaviour, design and construction of steel structures. Papers were contributed from over 18 countries around the world. They report current state-of-the art and point to future directions of structural steel research, covering a wide spectrum of topics including: beams and columns; connections; scaffolds and slender structures; cold-formed steel; composite construction; plates; shells; bridges; dynamics; impact mechanics; effects of welding; fatigue and fracture; fire performance; and analysis and design.

Download or read book Identification of Structural Parameters and Hydrodynamic Effects for Forced and Free Vibration written by Brian Louis Kruchoski and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statistically-based estimation techniques are presented in this study. These techniques incorporate structural test data to improve finite element models used for dynamic analysis. Methods are developed to identify optimum values of the parameters of finite element models describing structures. The parameters which may be identified are : element area, mass density, and moment of inertia; lumped mass and stiffness; and the Rayleigh damping coefficients. A technique is described for incorporating hydrodynamic effects on small bodies by identifying equivalent structure mass, stiffness, and damping properties. Procedures are presented for both the free vibration problem and for forced response in the time domain. The equations for parameter identification are formulated in terms of measured response, calculated response, the prior estimate of the parameters, and a weighting matrix. The form of the weighting matrix is presented for three identification schemes : Least Squares, Weighted Least Squares, and Bayesian. The weighting matrix is shown to be a function of a sensitivity matrix relating structural response to the parameters of the finite element model. Sensitivities for the forced vibration problem are derived from the Wilson Theta equations, and are presented for the free vibration problem. The algorithm used for parameter identification is presented, and its implementation in a computer program is described. Numerical examples are included to demonstrate the solution technique and the validity and capability of the identification method. All three estimation schemes are found to provide efficient and reliable parameter identification for many modeling situations.

Download or read book Smart Civil Structures written by You-Lin Xu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A smart civil structure integrates smart materials, sensors, actuators, signal processors, communication networks, power sources, diagonal strategies, control strategies, repair strategies, and life-cycle management strategies. It should function optimally and safely in its environment and maintain structural integrity during strong winds, severe earthquakes, and other extreme events. This book extends from the fundamentals to the state-of-the-art. It covers the elements of smart civil structures, their integration, and their functions. The elements consist of smart materials, sensors, control devices, signal processors, and communication networks. Integration refers to multi-scale modelling and model updating, multi-type sensor placement, control theory, and collective placement of control devices and sensors. And the functions include structural health monitoring, structural vibration control, structural self-repairing, and structural energy harvesting, with emphasis on their synthesis to form truly smart civil structures. It suits civil engineering students, professionals, and researchers with its blend of principles and practice.

This book was released on 2009-08-25 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural health monitoring is an extremely important methodology in evaluating the ‘health’ of a structure by assessing the level of deterioration and remaining service life of civil infrastructure systems. This book reviews key developments in research, technologies and applications in this area of civil engineering. It discusses ways of obtaining and analysing data, sensor technologies and methods of sensing changes in structural performance characteristics. It also discusses data transmission and the application of both individual technologies and entire systems to bridges and buildings. With its distinguished editors and international team of contributors, Structural health monitoring of civil infrastructure systems is a valuable reference for students in civil and structural engineering programs as well as those studying sensors, data analysis and transmission at universities. It will also be an important source for practicing civil engineers and designers, engineers and researchers developing sensors, network systems and methods of data transmission and analysis, policy makers, inspectors and those responsible for the safety and service life of civil infrastructure.
