Description: The book provides an overview of the latest achievements and engineering solutions in earthquake engineering. This edition features articles published between 2019 and 2023 by Trans Tech Publications Ltd., covering various aspects of the behaviour of buildings and infrastructural objects under seismic loads, as well as the development of engineering methods to enhance their seismic resistance.

Damage Assessment of Structures X

Edited by: Biswajit Basu

Online since: July 2013

Description: Damage assessment of structures is an emerging field and has become increasingly important over the past decade or two. Diagnosis and prognosis of structural damage plays an important role not just in ensuring the structural integrity but also in optimizing the overall life cycle cost including the cost for operation and maintenance.
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The Special collection consists of a compilation 159 papers on all research topics relevant to damage assessment of engineering structures and systems including numerical simulations, signal processing of sensor measurements, theoretical and experimental studies. Broad areas of damage assessment covered in the publication include applications to composite materials, civil infrastructure, mechanical devices and machineries, renewable energy, sensors, signal processing, structural health and condition monitoring.

Damage Assessment of Structures V

Edited by: J.M. Dulieu-Barton, M.J. Brennan, K.M. Holford and K. Worden

Online since: July 2003

Description: This volume presents the proceedings of the fifth in the celebrated series of biennial international conferences on the Damage Assessment of Structures (DAMAS 2003).
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
Studies of damage evolution, location and characterization are primordial aspects of the rapidly expanding field of SHM (structural health monitoring) and are major themes in this volume. In order to analyze efficiently the data-rich information provided by monitoring and by NDE (non-destructive evaluation) techniques, it is necessary to use advanced signal-processing procedures. Therefore, a significant fraction of the present book is dedicated to the optimization of signal processing and computation methods.

Damage Assessment of Structures IV

Edited by: K.M. Holford, J.A. Brandon, J.M. Dulieu-Barton, M.D. Gilchrist and K. Worden

Online since: April 2001

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
Understanding the manner in which damage evolves in engineering materials, systems or structures is currently the focus of extensive research. The object of the present book is to report recent advances in the areas of damage detection, assessment and quantification.
