Sinossi
Analysis and Design of Energy Geostructures gathers in a unified framework the theoretical and experimental competence available on energy geostructures: innovative multifunctional earth-contact structures that can provide renewable energy supply and structural support to any built environment. The book covers the broad, interdisciplinary and integrated knowledge required to address the analysis and design of energy geostructures from energy, geotechnical and structural perspectives. This knowledge includes (Part A) an introduction to the technology; (Part B) the fundamentals of heat and mass transfers as well as of the mechanics of geomaterials and structures required to address the unprecedented behavior of energy geostructures; (Part C) the experimental evidence characterizing the considered geostructures; (Part D) various analytical and numerical modeling approaches to analyze the response of energy geostructures; and (Part E) the performance-based design and detailing essentials of energy geostructures.
- Proposes the theoretical and practical application essentials required to address the analysis and design of energy geostructures from energy, geotechnical and structural perspectives
- Presents a substantial amount of resolved exercises on key aspects governing the behavior and performance of energy geostructures to be considered in analysis and design
- Summarizes and discusses the most recent scientific and technical knowledge about energy geostructures, including energy piles, energy tunnels and energy walls

Analysis and Design of Energy Geostructures: Theoretical essentials and practical application
By Lyesse Laloui and Alessandro F. Rotta Loria
Analysis and Design of Energy Geostructures gathers for the first time theoretical, experimental and design knowledge available to date about energy geostructures: an innovative technology that couples for any type of built environment the structural support role of the geostructures with the heating-cooling role of the geothermal heat exchangers harvesting renewable energy. The analysis and design of energy geostructures requires a broad range of competences to be carried out. From one side, these competences include the fundamentals of heat and mass transfers, and the application of this knowledge to the energy analysis and design of energy geostructures. From the other side, these competences include the essentials of the mechanics of geomaterials and structures, and the application of this knowledge to the geotechnical and structural analysis and design of energy geostructures. In the innovative framework of energy geostructures, all of the previous competences must be considered through a holistic and integrated approach to account for a number of unprecedented aspects related to the multiphysical behaviour and performance of such technology. Prior to this work, the aforementioned competences had not been available in a unified framework for addressing energy geostructures. This book resolves this challenge by treating, without being limited to, the aforementioned knowledge and proposes a large number of practical application exercises about key aspects governing the behaviour and performance of energy geostructures that need to be addressed in analysis and design. The aim of the book is to cover the essence of the interdisciplinary and integrated competences required in the energy, geotechnical and structural analysis and design of energy geostructures that engineers, architects and urban project managers have to face when addressing such innovative technology.
