About this title

Synopsis

This is a selective overview of late-1990s research and practice in some important areas of modern computation structural analysis and is dedicated to Professor W.B. Kratzig on the occassion of his 65th birthday. It contains over 30 contributions from international experts in the field, grouped under the headings of: structural dynamics; plates, shells steel and reinforced concrete structures and general computational mechanics and computer applications.;The volume includes papers on wind-excited structures, reduction techniques and methods for the assessment of uncertainty effects and also on numerical simulations for blast and impact protective design, three dimensional shell formulations, large inelastic strain analyses, stability and imperfection sensitivity issues, influence of steel connections and numerical analyses of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures.

The largest part of the volume features papers on: trends in computer-aided structural design, computational stochastics mechanics and engineering optimization, the computer simulation of blasting smokestacks; applications of artificial neural networks in structural engineering; crack propagation and adaptive remeshing; rock salt failure analysis; and many others.
