Dynamic Response of Infrastructure to Environmentally Induced Loads

This book provides state of the art coverage of important current issues in the analysis, measurement, and monitoring of the dynamic response of infrastructure to environmental loads, including those induced by earthquake motion and differential soil settlement. The coverage is in five parts that address numerical methods in structural dynamics, soil–structure interaction analysis, instrumentation and structural health monitoring, hybrid experimental mechanics, and structural health monitoring for bridges. Examples that give an impression of the scope of the topics discussed include the seismic analysis of bridges, soft computing in earthquake engineering, use of hybrid methods for soil–structure interaction analysis, effects of local site conditions on the inelastic dynamic analysis of bridges, embedded models in wireless sensor networks for structural health monitoring, recent developments in seismic simulation methods, and seismic performance assessment and retrofit of structures. Throughout, the emphasis is on the most significant recent advances and new material. The book comprises extended versions of contributions delivered at the DE-GRIE Lab Workshop 2014, held in Thessaloniki, Greece, in November 2014.

This volume gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM) and more broadly in the fields of smart materials and intelligent systems, as presented by leading international researchers and engineers at the 10th European Workshop on Structural Health Monitoring (EWSHM), held in Palermo, Italy on July 4-7, 2022. The volume covers highly diverse topics, including signal processing, smart sensors, autonomous systems, remote sensing and support, UAV platforms for SHM, Internet of Things, Industry 4.0, and SHM for civil structures and infrastructures. The contributions, which are published after a rigorous international peer-review process, highlight numerous exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists.
Fundamentals of Structural Analysis

"Fundamentals of Structural Analysis" is a comprehensive guide for engineers, architects, and students delving into structural engineering. We offer a fundamental resource for understanding how structures behave under various loads and conditions. The book covers a wide range of topics, starting from basic concepts like force, stress, and strain, and progressing to complex subjects such as structural dynamics and stability analysis. One key strength lies in our systematic approach to problem-solving. We introduce different methods for analyzing structures, including classical techniques like the method of joints and sections for statically determinate structures, and advanced methods such as the matrix stiffness method and finite element analysis for more complex structures. By presenting these methods coherently, we equip readers with the necessary tools to tackle structural problems in real-world engineering projects. We emphasize understanding the behavior of different structural elements under various loading conditions, covering beams, frames, trusses, and arches. The book also incorporates contemporary topics like seismic analysis, wind loading, and structural optimization, preparing readers for modern design challenges. With practical applications, examples, and integration of computer-aided analysis tools, "Fundamentals of Structural Analysis" is an essential resource for mastering structural engineering.
