Book excerpt: "A great deal of information has been published in the last decade concerning ice forces. Unfortunately, very little has been published in journals that are regularly read by civil engineers and, in particular, bridge engineers. As a result, many bridge engineers who are concerned with the action of ice on bridge structures are unaware of its existence. Most of the material contained herein has been extracted from papers or proceedings of specialty conferences or reports of research agencies. The objective of this paper is to present an overview of the problem and to bring together in one publication a state-of-the-art review of factors and phenomena which are significant to the ice force problems as they relate to the design of bridge piers"--Page 3-4

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the programme of the symposium was written: "The International Union of Theoretical and Applied Me chanics has taken the initiative to organize the sympo sium. As the name of IUTAM implies, the organization brings forward achievements within the field of theore tical mechanics for application in science and engineer ing. According to the rules of IUTAM that only invited persons can attend, all lecturers and participants have been ap pOinted by the members of the scientific committee. To facilitate contact among the attending persons, it has been decided to restrict the total number to 85 persons including the lecturers. Only one session is planned, making it possible for everybody to attend all lectures. Most scientists and engineers have realized that the knowledge attained by extensive basic research is essen tial in order to solve technological problems. In the process of acquiring this knowledge we often fail to un derstand that scientific progress is only achieved by two main principles: (1) By studying the scientific litera ture and applying or improving the theories in order to predict behaviour and forces correctly, or (2) by re jecting existing theories and developing new ways to cope with the problem, resulting in a more differenti ated and, hopefully, more exact theory. Ice seems to be a simple material, but it is in fact so complex and strange that it is only in the latest dec ades that we have come to know some of the natural laws governing its behaviour.

This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fifth volume in a series of publications containing classic papers from the early years of the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC), the world s leading event for the development of offshore resources in the fields of exploration, drilling, production, and environmental protection. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), through its participation in and support of the OTC, plays a major role in the innovation and evolution of the technologies needed to overcome the challenges facing development of resources in the offshore environment. The years since the first OTC Conference in 1969 have seen the presentation of over 10,000 papers in the various technical disciplines central to offshore development. A few of the civil engineering papers, presented throughout OTC s history, provided innovation in, vision for and lasting impact on the design, construction, or installation of offshore infrastructure. Many have been adopted by design standards worldwide or became an integral part of design software. Some have had influence far beyond the offshore industry, and some have become integral to the design process of onshore structures such as buildings and bridges. Offshore Technology in Civil Engineering: Hall of Fame Papers from the Early Years; Volume Five is a collection of the eight winning papers inducted in 2010 at an award ceremony during OTC in May of 2010. The engineering methods published in these papers have proven their value through widespread use, permeating codes, standards, guidelines, and engineering software.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fast changing legislation and increasing environmental awarenesswithin the non-scientific community demands that the modernapproach to the management of rivers and water resources should bebased on a sound understanding and application of the scientificand ecological principles that underlie freshwater processes. Intwo volumes, The Rivers Handbook offers an expert andexhaustive insight into the principles, methods and tools of modernriver management - always within an integrated and environmentallyacceptable framework. This second volume develops the principlesand philosophies expounded in the first volume into the managementsphere, organizing the approach around problems, diagnosis andtreatment. A fully comprehensive reference to sound methods of modernriver management. The ideal information resource for all river managers.

Download or read book The Drift of Sea Ice written by Matti Leppäranta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-22 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second Edition of The Drift of Sea Ice presents the fundamental laws of sea ice drift which come from the material properties of sea ice and the basic laws of mechanics. The resulting system of equations is analysed for the general properties of sea ice drift, the free drift model and analytical models for ice drift in the presence of internal friction, and the construction of numerical ice drift models is detailed. This second edition of a much lauded work, unique on this topic in the English language, has been revised, updated and expanded with much new information and outlines recent results, in particular in relation to the climate problem, mathematical modelling and ice engineering applications. The current book presents the theory, observations, mathematical modelling techniques, and applications of sea ice drift science. The theory is presented from the beginning on a graduate student level, so that students and researchers coming from other fields such as physical oceanography, meteorology, physics, engineering, environmental sciences or geography can use the book as a source book or self-study material. First the drift ice material is presented ending with the concept of ‘ice state’ – the relevant properties in sea ice dynamics. Ice kinematics observations are widely presented with the mathematical analysis methods, and thereafter come drift ice rheology – to close the triangle material – kinematics – stress. The momentum equation of sea ice is derived in detail and its general properties are carefully analysed. Then follow two chapters on analytical models: free drift and drift in the presence of internal friction: These are very important tools in understanding the dynamical behaviour of sea ice. The last topical chapter is numerical models, which are the modern tool to solve ice dynamics problem in short term and long term problems. The closing chapter summarises sea ice dynamics applications and the need of sea ice dynamic knowledge and gives some final remarks on the future of this branch of science.
