Building Seismic Monitoring and Detection Technology
Building Seismic Monitoring and Detection Technology focuses on the research of seismic resistance and monitoring technology. The book gathers cutting-edge research and achievements, and includes contributions on the following subjects: New concepts and key technologies of structural regulation and disaster prevention Test and monitoring study of thermal insulation in tunnels Protection of steel and concrete structures using arc thermal spray Research progress of mechanical metamaterials This book is aiming at scholars and engineers involved or interested in structural engineering and seismic detection technology.
Seismic Structural Health Monitoring
This book includes a collection of state-of-the-art contributions addressing both theoretical developments in, and successful applications of, seismic structural health monitoring (S2HM). Over the past few decades, Seismic SHM has expanded considerably, due to the growing demand among various stakeholders (owners, managers and engineering professionals) and researchers. The discipline has matured in the process, as can be seen by the number of S2HM systems currently installed worldwide. Furthermore, the responses recorded by S2HM systems hold great potential, both with regard to the management of emergency situations and to ordinary maintenance needs. The book’s 17 chapters, prepared by leading international experts, are divided into four major sections. The first comprises six chapters describing the specific requirements of S2HM systems for different types of civil structures and infrastructures (buildings, bridges, cultural heritage, dams, structures with base isolation devices) and for monitoring different phenomena (e.g. soil-structure interaction and excessive drift). The second section describes available methods and computational tools for data processing, while the third is dedicated to hardware and software tools for S2HM. In the book’s closing section, five chapters report on state-of-the-art applications of S2HM around the world.
Engineering Materials, Structures, Systems and Methods for a More Sustainable Future
Engineering Materials, Structures, Systems and Methods for a More Sustainable Future comprises 275 papers that were presented at SEMC 2025, the Ninth International Conference on Structural Engineering, Mechanics and Computation. This event, held in Cape Town (South Africa) from 1 to 3 September 2025, was attended by around 300 participants from 42 countries worldwide. The Proceedings are divided into 15 sections. The various topics may be grouped into five broad categories covering: (i) the mechanics of materials, solids and structures; (ii) numerical modelling, computational simulations and experimental testing; (iii) analysis, design and construction in the traditional engineering materials; (iv) innovative engineering materials, structures and methods; (v) maintenance, long-term performance, life-cycle considerations and sustainable construction. Engineering Materials, Structures, Systems and Methods for a More Sustainable Future will be of interest to civil, structural, mechanical, marine and aerospace engineers, as well as planners and architects. Two versions of the papers are available: full papers of length six pages are included in the e-book, while short papers of length two pages, intended to be concise but self-contained summaries of the full papers, are in the printed book.
