Computational Fluid and Solid Mechanics 2003
Author: K.J Bathe
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 008052947X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 2485
Book Description
Bringing together the world's leading researchers and practitioners of computational mechanics, these new volumes meet and build on the eight key challenges for research and development in computational mechanics. Researchers have recently identified eight critical research tasks facing the field of computational mechanics. These tasks have come about because it appears possible to reach a new level of mathematical modelling and numerical solution that will lead to a much deeper understanding of nature and to great improvements in engineering design.The eight tasks are: The automatic solution of mathematical models Effective numerical schemes for fluid flows The development of an effective mesh-free numerical solution method The development of numerical procedures for multiphysics problems The development of numerical procedures for multiscale problems The modelling of uncertainties The analysis of complete life cycles of systems Education - teaching sound engineering and scientific judgement Readers of Computational Fluid and Solid Mechanics 2003 will be able to apply the combined experience of many of the world's leading researchers to their own research needs. Those in academic environments will gain a better insight into the needs and constraints of the industries they are involved with; those in industry will gain a competitive advantage by gaining insight into the cutting edge research being carried out by colleagues in academia. Features Bridges the gap between academic researchers and practitioners in industry Outlines the eight main challenges facing Research and Design in Computational mechanics and offers new insights into the shifting the research agenda Provides a vision of how strong, basic and exciting education at university can be harmonized with life-long learning to obtain maximum value from the new powerful tools of analysis

Proof-testing of Latticed Members and Their Connections on SFOBB

ISBN:
Category : Bridges
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
The primary objective of this project was to provide the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) with the information necessary for finalizing seismic retrofit design of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge (SFOBB). Focus was on conducting cyclic tests of half-scale specimens representing latticed members and their connections of the SFOBB. The results of the tests and related analyses were used for refining and modifying the retrofit design of the bridge as well as providing physical results on the actual behavior of existing and retrofitted members. Results showed that the dominant failure mode of the latticed members was the local buckling of the angle legs between the latticed points. In addition, it was found that the failure of connection rivets was the main failure mode of the existing latticed members in specimens with gusset plate connections.
