Dynamics of structures / Chopra, Anil-K. (1995)

Public ISBD Titre : Dynamics of structures : theory and applications to earthquake engineering Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Chopra, Anil-K., Auteur Editeur : London ; New Jersey : Prentice-Hall Année de publication : 1995 Collection : Civil engineering and engineering mechanics Importance : 729 p. Présentation : ill. Format : 23 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-13-521063-5 Note générale : Index Bibliogr. en fin de chaque chapitre Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Constructions, Théorie des -- Dynamique Index. décimale : 624.01 Structures et élément de structures d'après les matériaux et procédés de construction Résumé : The need for a textbook on eaethquake engineering was first pointed out by the eminent consulting engineer, john R.freeman(1855-1932).following the destructive santa barbara, california earthquake of 1925, he became interested in the subject and searched the boston public library for relevant books.He found that not only was there no textbook on earthquake engineering, but the subject itself was not mentioned in any of the books on structural engineering. Looking back,we can see that in 1925 engineering education was in an undeveloped state with computing done by slide rule and curricula that did not prepare the student for understanding structural dynamics. In fact, no instruments had been developed for recording strong ground motions, and society appeared to be unconcerned about earthquake hazards.

Earthquake engineering for concrete dams / Chopra, Anil-K. (2020)

Public ISBD Titre : Earthquake engineering for concrete dams : analysis, design, and evaluation Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Chopra, Anil-K., Auteur Editeur : New Jersey [États-Unis] : Wiley-Blackwell Année de publication : 2020 Importance : 1 fichier PDF Présentation : ill. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-119-05604-1 Note générale : Mode d'accès : accès au texte intégral par : - authentification après inscription à la plateforme EBSCOhost ou - adresse IP de l'École. Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Dam safety Concrete dams--Earthquake effects Earthquake engineering Earthquake hazard analysis Index. décimale : 624.042.7 Contraintes dues aux mouvements du sol, vibrations du sol (séismes) Résumé : A comprehensive guide to modern-day methods for earthquake engineering of concrete dams Earthquake analysis and design of concrete dams has progressed from static force methods based on seismic coefficients to modern procedures that are based on the dynamics of dam–water–foundation systems. Earthquake Engineering for Concrete Dams offers a comprehensive, integrated view of this progress over the last fifty years. The book offers an understanding of the limitations of the various methods of dynamic analysis used in practice and develops modern methods that overcome these limitations. This important book: Develops procedures for dynamic analysis of two-dimensional and three-dimensional models of concrete dams Identifies system parameters that influence their response Demonstrates the effects of dam–water–foundation interaction on earthquake response Identifies factors that must be included in earthquake analysis of concrete dams Examines design earthquakes as defined by various regulatory bodies and organizations Presents modern methods for establishing design spectra and selecting ground motions Illustrates application of dynamic analysis procedures to the design of new dams and safety evaluation of existing dams. Written for graduate students, researchers, and professional engineers, Earthquake Engineering for Concrete Dams offers a comprehensive view of the current procedures and methods for seismic analysis, design, and safety evaluation of concrete dams.
