Riassunto

Structural Modeling and Experimental Techniques presents a current treatment of structural modeling for applications in design, research, education, and product development. Providing numerous case studies throughout, the book emphasizes modeling the behavior of reinforced and prestressed concrete and masonry structures.

Structural Modeling and Experimental Techniques:

Concentrates on the modeling of the true inelastic behavior of structures

Provides case histories detailing applications of the modeling techniques to real structures

Discusses the historical background of model analysis and similitude principles governing the design, testing, and interpretation of models

Evaluates the limitations and benefits of elastic models

Analyzes materials for reinforced concrete masonry and steel models

Assesses the critical nature of scale effects of model testing

Describes selected laboratory techniques and loading methods

Contains material on errors as well as the accuracy and reliability of physical modeling

Examines dynamic similitude and modeling techniques for studying dynamic loading of structures

Covers actual applications of structural modeling

This book serves students in model analysis and experimental methods, professionals manufacturing and testing structural models, as well as professionals testing large or full-scale structures - since the instrumentation techniques and overall approaches for testing large structures are very similar to those used in small-scale modeling work.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Structural Modeling and Experimental Techniques offers a treatment of structural modeling for applications in design, research, education, and product development. Providing numerous case studies throughout, the book emphasizes modeling the behavior of reinforced and prestressed concrete and masonry structures. The second edition includes new or expanded discussions on a variety of topics, including modeling concrete structures with FRP reinforcement, model fabrication techniques, nonlinear and inelastic structural behavior, the strength of model block masonry assemblages, fiber optic sensors, and centrifuge testing.
