Structural Reliability in Civil Engineering

Nature-Based Solutions to 21st Century Challenges

This survey of lightweight specialty structures provides in-depth case studies supplemented with technical guidance and an overview of fundamental theories.Drawing on almost 75 years of combined professional and academic experience, the authors guide readers through design of lightweight systems: spaceframes, grid shells, cable nets, ETFE membranes, rails, stairs, and canopies. Each chapter provides an overview of the evolution of each system and provides technical references for further study. Images, details and calculations from 18 actual projects showcase the process of design and the importance of close collaboration among all members of the project team. These case studies include discussion of design intent, analysis methods, architectural constraints, detailing, fabrication, and construction methods. Because lightweight structures blur the lines between architecture, engineering and fabrication, care is taken to share key lessons learned from over half a century of firsthand design. These topics can be highly technical and broadly extensive, and this book serves as a tractable introduction for designers.Written for structural architecture students and early career professionals, this book is an essential introduction to the fundamentals of each lightweight structural system.

Structural Design of Lightweight Architecture

Advanced Mechanics of Solids and Structures

This book presents a&nbsp;thermomechanical analysis of multiple different rock types around the world, and helps readers in the design of rock structures in extreme heat environments.

Woodhead Publishing Series in Welding and Other Joining Technologies

Mechanical Joining by Material Flow provides sought-after experimental information on process design, process modeling, and joint characterization techniques for students, researchers, and engineering professionals who want to learn about advanced joining systems for lightweight materials. Chapters cover mechanical joining by plastic deformation, including clinching and self-piercing riveting, and friction-based processes, such as friction stir welding to form a mechanical joint. Though these processes are mainly used to establish metallurgical bonding, their unique characteristics and the material flow they generate has led to an increased use of these techniques for joining difficult-to-weld materials. Other sections introduce innovative technologies developed based on material flow to meet existing industry needs to join materials with different structural properties in different scales or shapes. To furnish readers with a more usefully comprehensive coverage, the team of experts behind the book has included methodological principles as well as discussions on advantages, drawbacks, and future directions of each technique, alongside application examples and case studies.

The Science of AI in Water Management

Geomechanics Research

This book provides a basis to interpret acoustic emission (AE) as damage processes in stressed rock, with applications to stress measurements, size effects, source mechanisms, and fracture mechanics. Basic features of an AE monitoring system will be covered, with some background on the sensor, pre-amplifier, and data acquisition. Several examples of AE monitoring will include both lab and field applications ranging from element testing to hydraulic fracturing. Intended for geologists, geophysicists and mining, petroleum and civil engineers dealing with rock stress and rock damage processes.

Rock stress and rock damaging are some of the main obstacles encountered when designing and constructing engineering projects with rock. This book will provide a basis to interpret acoustic emission (AE) as damage processes in stressed rock, with applications to stress measurements, size effects, source mechanisms, and fracture mechanics. The nature of rock will be described as a crystalline solid with voids in the form of small cracks and pores called damage, and AE will be explained as energy released as a result of increase in damage. Basic features of an AE monitoring system will be covered, with some background on the sensor, pre-amplifier, and data acquisition. Waveform analyses will include source locations through a geometric interpretation and a numerical algorithm, which will be available through the authors’ web sites. Fault plane solutions and moment tensor analysis will be presented for a quantitative evaluation of micromechanisms of rock failure under tension and shear. Several examples of AE monitoring will include both lab and field applications ranging from element testing to hydraulic fracturing. Intended for geologists, geophysicists and mining, petroleum and civil engineers dealing with rock stress and rock damage processes.

This book analyses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its impact on sustainability, ethics, security, and society. It provides actionable strategies for eco-friendly AI, navigating legal frameworks, and implementing ethical practices. It examines security challenges from AI misuse, outlining necessary cybersecurity enhancements. Real-world case studies bridge theory and practice. Guidance is provided for aligning AI adoption with societal and environmental goals, promoting responsible AI development for a sustainable future. This comprehensive study of AI begins by looking at AI's role in environmental sustainability, providing actionable strategies for eco-friendly AI development and deployment. This includes understanding the complex relationship between AI and the environment to minimize its footprint and promote AI solutions that contribute to environmental goals. The authors extend into insightful discussion on navigating the intricate legal frameworks and implementing ethical AI practices. This guidance reduces the risk of legal challenges and reputational damage, leading to increased trust and responsible AI development and use. Bridging the gap between theory and practice is another important feature in this book. With real-world case studies, the reader gains practical understanding of how AI is being used in different contexts. This further enhances the accelerated adoption and increased innovation of AI solutions in different fields. This book provides a clear roadmap for responsible and sustainable AI integration, aligning AI initiatives with broader societal objectives.The primary audience for this book includes business leaders, professionals, policymakers, technologists and AI practitioners.
