A New Approach to Sediment Transport in the Design and Operation of Irrigation Canals Port Security Management Kenneth Christopher

Park University, Parkville, Missouri, USA

An understanding of the behavior and transport of sediment enables efficient planning and reliable water delivery schedules, and it ensures controlled deposition of sediments, making maintenance activities more manageable. This book presents a detailed analysis of sediment transport in irrigation canals, together with physical and mathematical descriptions of the behavior. The authors use a mathematical model to predict the sediment transport, deposition and entrainment rate for various flow conditions and sediment inputs. The model is particularly suitable for the simulation of sediment transport in irrigation canals where flow and sediment transport are determined by the operation of flow control structures.

In three parts this work covers port security management within a framework of organizational structure, risk and vulnerability analysis, and security operations management, providing a basic awareness and understanding of security management in the port facility environment. It begins with a historical and organizational perspective of maritime and seaport security and discusses the management of risk assessment in the context of the unique vulnerabilities that maritime and seaport environments present. The book concludes by addressing the ground-level issues, tasks, and responsibilities that must be managed by the facility security officer, in concert with the port director and staff.

Building Vulnerability Assessments Industrial Hygiene and Engineering Concepts Edited by

Martha J. Boss and Dennis W. Day

Geotechnics Laboratory, Ghent University, Belgium

URS Corporation, Omaha, Nebraska, USA

Ground improvement is an established technique in foundation engineering. In recent decades, modern methods of ground improvement have utilized explosives, impact energy, thermal treatment of the soil, and vacuum consolidation. They have also applied vibratory compaction technologies, stabilization and solidification of soft soils, and combined systems of ingenious grouting systems and deep mixing technique. Internationally, deep mixing techniques are often the chosen method for dealing with increasingly demanding foundation problems. Initial experiences using inventive new developments in soft soil deep mixing technologies and various advanced high-pressure mixing methods have proved successful, both on and offshore.

Chemical, biological, and radioactive (CBR) threats are generally only recognized after a catastrophic event such as terrorism or sabotage occurs. However, many buildings and facilities throughout the world already face these current known risk factors. Presenting structural vulnerability issues in a concise format, this resource aids building owners and operators in quickly determining appropriate risk management, both during normal operation and when emergencies occur. It explores ventilation systems, the value of sheltering versus evacuation, design options, decontamination methods, and mechanical systems. It also presents summaries of regulations that are used to determine whether chemicals create a risk to off-site locations or constitute a homeland security vulnerability.

National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Taipei

Properly understanding and characterizing geologic materials and formations is vital to making critical engineering decisions. With clear, concise, and hands-on guidance, esteemed author Roy E. Hunt provides a basis for recognizing, identifying, and classifying various rock and soil types, describing each variety in terms of its origin, mode of occurrence, and structural features in situ. This informative text presents the typical characteristics that are of particular significance in engineering. It also explains the elements that affect surface and subsurface water engineering in terms of controlling floods, erosion, subsurface flow, and seepage, as well as for water conservation.

Most books on general foundation engineering introduce the basic analysis and design of excavation but are not usually equipped to deal with analysis and design in practice. As economic development and urbanization have continued to grow, excavations have gone deeper and become larger in scale, sometimes even being carried out in difficult soils. These conditions require advanced analysis and design methods and construction technologies. This book examines both theory and practical applications, from basic to advanced, and discusses the major methods used around the world. Each chapter also includes problems and their solutions to develop a practical, real-world understanding.

Drilled shafts in rock are widely used as foundations of heavy structures such as highway bridges and tall buildings, but major findings on their analysis and design have been published mainly in reports and articles in technical journals and conference proceedings. This book presents and summarizes that information in one volume, highlighting the principle differences between foundations in soil and those in rock masses containing discontinuities. This book presents methods for characterizing those discontinuities in jointed rock masses, and considering their effects on the behavior of drilled shafts. It is a valuable tool for practitioners in geological engineering, rock mechanics and foundation engineering.

Throughout the evolution of rock drilling and blasting, there have been numerous technical contributions that have brought a better understanding of rock fragmentation with explosives, improved drilling equipment and noticeable improvements in the development of new explosives and blasting accessories. To document this progress and the technology’s continued importance in mining and civil engineering projects, this handbook provides basic knowledge of drilling systems and machines, types and characteristics of explosives and the accessories, parameters, and methods related to blast design and calculation. Useful for professionals and students involved in mining operations and civil engineering projects, this book is a key contribution to optimal mining safety.

Detailing the experimental methods developed by the author and his co-workers, and the subsequent results they obtained, this book explores the deformation and fracture of rock specimens under the general triaxial compression in which all three principal stresses are different. This text also discusses the experimental results of the effect of the intermediate principal stress, in graphic and numerical forms, and it shows the importance of this effect on the ultimate strength of rocks. Applying these results, the author proposes failure criterion and presents various devices for reliable and highly accurate experimental tests.

This guide provides the how-tos for recognizing and understanding various geologic hazards, and providing safe and economical construction. Expert Roy E. Hunt thoroughly examines the potential for slope failures, earthquakes, ground subsidence, collapse, and expansion. Using a clear conceptual approach, he explains what measures are available to minimize or eliminate the risks associated with each of these geologic hazards. The book sets forth the basis for recognizing, understanding, and treating geologic hazards, using general concepts rather than rigorous mathematical analyses. It is a useful tool for designing new projects and redesigning old ones.

Series: Structures and Infrastructures

University of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia

Exceptionally useful for monitoring structural health, this practical guide provides suitable algorithms that enable readers to utilize collected data by translating it into tangible information about the condition of an infrastructure for maintenance scheduling purposes. It addresses developments in time-response series and their derivatives, including the wavelet-based impulse response function. The book also discusses loads on the structure (vehicular load, the ground micro-tremor and ambient random excitation from the supports) in the conditions assessment. The authors also discuss treatment of uncertainties and the study of their propagation in the inverse problem of structural condition assessment.

Any working structural system is subject to age-related deterioration, and that incontrovertible factor will always have the potential to cause problems regarding maintenance, health and safety, and environmental and economic implications. This work is an invaluable single source of information on structural assessment techniques for marine and land-based structures, such as ships, offshore installations, industrial plant and buildings. It covers current practices and standards for structural condition assessment and advanced mathematical methods for predicting structural deterioration. It also delves into residual strength assessment of deteriorated structures and reliability and risk assessment of aged structures.

The Welding Institute, Great Abington, Cambridge, England

Jagmohan L. Humar

To avoid fatigue, it is essential to design structures with inherent strength. But fatigue strength is not a constant material property, and the calculations necessary to achieve reinforcement are built on a number of assumptions. This book explores the wealth of research in this important field and its implications for the design and manufacture of welded components. It covers the influence of residual stresses, how laboratory data obtained under constant amplitude conditions can be applied to real-world structural design, and the influence that various variable loading spectra can have on fatigue strength. The book is invaluable for welding engineers, supervisors, inspection personnel, and designers.

A great aid to engineers in the civil, mechanical and aerospace sectors, this book provides comprehensive coverage of the analytical tools required to determine the dynamic response of structures, with numerous examples and exercise problems to clarify ideas. It discusses formulation of the equations of motion using the principles of both vector mechanics and analytical mechanics. It also explains free vibration response, determination of frequencies and mode shapes, forced vibration response to harmonic and general forcing functions, numerical integration of the equations of motion, and frequency domain analysis, as well as analysis of continuous systems and wave propagation analysis.

This extended and revised second edition facilitates easy, timeefficient design assessment, elaborating on techniques for the numerical analysis of beams, long strips, circular plates, and circular-cylindrical tanks resting on elastic foundations and on unyielding or elastic supports. It emphasizes simplified analysis while maintaining accurate results, providing several examples to illustrate ideas. Solution techniques incorporate a variant of the direct stiffness method, an energy-based finite difference approach, and a finite element method. The text includes easy-to-use software to aid assessment of laterally loaded piles and bending analysis of retaining walls. This powerful multifaceted tool is invaluable to both practicing engineers and postgraduate students and researchers working in soil-structure interaction.

This report provides background and guidance on the use of the structural hot-spot stress approach to the fatigue design of welded components and structures. Following an explanation of the method, its definition, and its relevance to fatigue, the authors describe strategies for stress determination and explore it in terms of both finite element analysis and strain gauge measurements, presenting parametric formulae for calculating stress increases that result from misalignment and structural discontinuities. This text pays special attention to the use of finite element stress analysis, providing guidance on the choice of element type and size for use with either solid or shell elements.

Bearing Capacity and Settlement, Second Edition

Structural Analysis

Braja M. Das

Ramon V. Jarquio

This book is considered the standard engineering reference on shallow foundations, and the latest edition strengthens that reputation. Written by one of the top engineers in the field, the book has been completely reworked to cover all the latest developments and approaches. Equally valuable to researchers, designers, and engineering students, this resource updates data and provides revised theories on the ultimate and allowable bearing capacities of shallow foundations. It adds refinements to a number of unique circumstances, such as foundations in soil with geogrid reinforcement, and bearing capacity relationships for shallow foundations subjected to eccentric and inclined loads. It also covers advances in reinforcement materials.

Introducing the capacity axis, a geometric property that is largely ignored in the existing literature, this book illustrates analytical procedures for predicting the capacities of circular and rectangular sections in concrete and steel materials. This new analytical method uses the capacity axis not only to determine the minimum capacity for biaxial bending but also to satisfy the equilibrium of external and internal forces. Under the current standard interaction formula, satisfaction of equilibrium conditions is not possible. The author demonstrates how the currently accepted method is crude and ineffective and proves this condition using the results of the analytical method.

Weld cracks are unacceptable defects that can compromise the integrity of welded structures. Most cracks are the result of solidification, cooling and stresses that develop due to weld shrinkage. Weld cracking can lead to structural failures which at best will require remedial action and at worst can lead to loss of life. All areas that utilize welding can be affected, including nuclear, aerospace, automotive, and shipbuilding industries, and civil engineering fields. This book covers the processes of weld cracking in different ferrous alloys and for different welding technologies. It also presents methods to test for, avoid, and repair weld cracks.

Filling the gap between general introductory and highly technical books, Engineering Design and Analysis of Highway Bridges focuses on the most common types of bridge superstructures encountered in practice—both simple and continuous, composite and noncomposite, and short- and medium-span bridges. This book emphasizes the practical aspects and economical details in the design of highway bridges. It also discusses various types of bridges, including those made of steel, reinforced concrete, and pre-stressed concrete. Based on standards specifications for highway bridges, the authors present a text that presents basic theory and behavior, bridge specifications, and detailed examples, making it ideal for students and researchers.

Understanding Bridge Collapses

Hojjat Adeli

Bjorn Åkesson

Perhaps more than any other engineered structures, bridges represent the height of resourcefulness both in their design and their use of materials. Stone, brick, timber, wrought iron, steel, and concrete have all been effectively employed in a myriad of structural forms, many of which still stand as testimony to the brilliance of bridge designers throughout the history of civilization, from ancient China to the modern-day United States. This work is a detailed technical assessment of bridge engineering that explores several remarkable examples and details the evolution of bridge design. Demonstrating historic significance beyond their utilitarian function, these bridges are true landmarks, as worthy of emulation as they are preservation.

Because much of today’s knowledge is often based on the failures of the past, consulting engineers and advanced students of structural and bridge engineering will appreciate this richly illustrated and detailed analysis of 20 historic bridge collapses that elucidates the theory, related phenomena, and mathematical theories related to each example. This book presents failure analyses and reinforces them with accepted explanations and, in some cases, new theories to describe the gradual development of bridge types used and choice of construction material. The chronological order of events and gradual development of ideas will have a positive effect on engineers’ acceptance and visualization of essential mathematical theories.

Discussing experimental procedures as well as theoretical aspects, Mechanics of Ballasted Tracks: A Geotechnical Perspective presents essential information related to triaxial testing of ballast, including strength, deformation, and degradation aspects of fresh and recycled ballast. An in-depth examination of the effectiveness of geosynthetics in stabilizing recycled ballast, this practical guide incorporates particle breakage and presents a stress-strain constitutive model for ballast. It also proposes a range of particle gradations for rail tracks that balances strength and permeability requirements. Both practicing engineers and students alike will appreciate this text and find it useful in their everyday work.

Addressing both traffic efficiency and safety, this practical guide examines the traffic control optimization problem in detail and presents a novel solution method. Using an approach based on control theory, graph theory, and combinatorial optimization, the authors derive a full mathematical description of the traffic control problem and enumerate all combinatorial aspects. The result is a set of algorithmic solutions to various problems, along with a computer implementation that readers can incorporate into real traffic control systems for immediate results. The book concludes by evaluating the influence on intersection performance of the choice of a complete set of signal groups.

This unified, interdisciplinary, and comprehensive collection provides a foundation in dynamo theory before moving on to modeling aspects of natural dynamos. It introduces governing equations, outlines the kinematic dynamo theory, covers nonlinear effects, and discusses fluid dynamics. The book then describes the Earth’s magnetic field and the current understanding of its characteristics. Subsequent chapters examine other planets in our solar system and the magnetic field of stars, including the sun. The book also addresses dynamo action on the large scale of galaxies, presents modeling experiments of natural dynamos, and speculates about future research directions.

Offering a modern approach to this classical subject, this book is primarily an introduction to the basic concepts and phenomenology of continuous systems, and the derivations of the equations of continuum mechanics from Newtonian mechanics. Although many examples, particularly in the earlier chapters, are taken from geophysics and astrophysics, the author firmly emphasizes generic methods and applications. Each chapter introduces its particular topic simply, using easily understandable language. It steadily raises the level of difficulty with each chapter throughout the text, developing necessary mathematical tools to parallel presented physics as the reader needs them, an approach that avoids lengthy mathematical preliminaries.

Reflecting developments in the study of Saint-Venant’s problem, this book focuses on the deformation of elastic cylinders for three models of continuum: classical elastic continuum, Cosserat elastic body, and porous elastic material. With numerous results not found in related texts, it presents a method to study the problem of elastic bars subjected to body forces and surface tractions on the lateral boundary. The author examines elastic bars made of inhomogenous elastic materials, studies the behavior of Cosserat cylinders, and discusses the deformation of porous elastic bars. Many exercises and examples show how the methods discussed can be used to solve engineering problems.

Random Phenomena Applied Probability and Statistics for Engineers

Bilal M. Ayyub

University of Maryland, College Park, USA

Babatunde A. Ogunnaike

George J. Klir

Many of the most difficult problems that engineers face involve randomly varying phenomena of one sort or another. But even randomness or uncertainty is subject to the laws of mathematics if rigor is applied. This book provides students with a fundamental understanding of random phenomena, a working knowledge of how to model and analyze such phenomenon, and explains how to use probability and statistics to cope with uncertainty in key engineering problems. Basing his approach on the principle of theoretical foundations before application (statistics), Dr. Ogannaike presents a classroom-tested system for understanding, characterizing, modeling and finally, quantifying problems.

Based on the authors’ first-hand experiences, Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis in Engineering and the Sciences serves as a singlesource reference and text on the theory, background, and history of the subject. This book provides guidance on the use of uncertainty modeling and analysis methods by presenting the historical, theoretical, and philosophical bases behind suggested methods. It offers critical reviews, advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of the methods discussed. Presenting broad and comprehensive coverage of the subject, the text also includes numerous case studies, examples, problems, figures, and tables as well as an extensive reference list.
