Books by Keyword: Seismic Isolation

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.

Description: This journal's issue includes articles that describe the latest research results in alloy metallurgy, building materials and construction technologies including building seismic provision and results of analytical modelling of mechanical properties of shrink-fitted thick-walled cylinders and nose landing gear for Boeing 777. There is also analysed a hybrid system solar chimney-air soil heat exchanger for natural ventilation and modified particle swarm optimisation for maximum power point tracking for solar photovoltaic systems and presented mathematical modelling of agricultural insurance pricing in Morocco. This volume will be helpful to many engineers in machinery, manufacturing, energy industry and construction.

Description: The 48th volume of the journal includes articles on research results in geotechnical engineering, seismic and waterproofing resistances of structures, building materials, designing of fractal antenna for wireless communication, analysis of agricultural waste heating value, electrohydrodynamic drying and more. The engineers, students and scientific investigators working in the various engineering fields will find this volume of value.

Description: The 11th International Conference on Contemporary Problems of Architecture and Construction (11th ICPAC-2019) was held from October 14 - 16, 2019, on the basis National University of Architecture and Construction of Armenia. The presented, according to the results of the conference collection, raises important problems in construction and architecture - from ideas and projects to their practical implementation on the real objects. We hope this book will be interesting and useful for many specialists in the field of modern construction and architecture.
