nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book features chapters based on selected presentations from the International Congress on Advanced Earthquake Resistance of Structures, AERS2016, held in Samsun, Turkey, from 24 to 28 October 2016.It covers the latest advances in three widely popular research areas in Earthquake Engineering: Performance-Based Seismic Design, Seismic Isolation Systems, and Structural Health Monitoring.The book shows the vulnerability of high-rise and seismically isolated buildings to long periods of strong ground motions, and proposes new passive and semi-active structural seismic isolation systems to protect against such effects. These systems are validated through real-time hybrid tests on shaking tables.Structural health monitoring systems provide rapid assessment of structural safety after an earthquake and allow preventive measures to be taken, such as shutting down the elevators and gas lines, before damage occurs. Using the vibration data from instrumented tall buildings, the book demonstrates that large, distant earthquakes and surface waves, which are not accounted for in most attenuation equations, can cause long-duration shaking and damage in tall buildings.The overview of the current performance-based design methodologies includes discussions on the design of tall buildings and the reasons common prescriptive code provisions are not sufficient to address the requirements of tall-building design. In addition, the book explains the modelling and acceptance criteria associated with various performance-based design guidelines, and discusses issues such as selection and scaling of ground motion records, soil-foundation-structure interaction, and seismic instrumentation and peer review needs.The book is of interest to a wide range of professionals in earthquake engineering, including designers, researchers, and graduate students.…

This book features chapters based on selected presentations from the International Congress on Advanced Earthquake Resistance of Structures, AERS2016, held in Samsun, Turkey, from 24 to 28 October 2016.

Informazioni sull’autore
Carlos Ventura is a Civil Engineer with specializations in structural dynamics and earthquake engineering. Since 1992, he has been a faculty member of the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Canada. He is currently the Director of the Earthquake Engineering Research Facility (EERF) at UBC, and the author of more than 450 papers and reports on earthquake engineering, structural dynamics and modal testing. Dr. Ventura has conducted research on earthquakes and structural dynamics for more than thirty years. Two of his most significant contributions in recent years are the development and implementation of a seismic structural health monitoring program for bridges in BC - the BCSIMS project - and the first network-based earthquake early warning system for schools and public institutions in BC, the BC-EEWN project. These two projects have contributed in a very significant manner to the seismic risk reduction efforts in British Columbia. In addition to his academic activities, Dr. Ventura is a recognized international consultant on structural vibrations and safety of large Civil Engineering structures. He is a member of the Canadian Academy of Engineering and of the Engineering Institute of Canada, and Fellow of Engineers Canada. He is also a member of several national and international professional societies, advisory committees and several building and bridge code committees.
Farzad Naeim is the President of Farzad Naeim, Inc. and CEO of Mehrain Naeim International, Inc., in Irvine, California. Prior to founding these firms, he was Technical Director at John A. Martin & Associates (JAMA) and its legal counsel. He regularly managed and facilitated activities of internal teams of experts in research and development activities, special seismic studies, and the design of specialized computer applications. For over 34 years Farzads mission has been to take the best technology available and develop it into tailor-made computing facilities, design methodologies, analysis software, and earthquake-resistant design technologies. He developed an international reputation for cutting edge engineering and computer technology, and was awarded grants by such diverse agencies as the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the County of Los Angeles, the California Strong Motion Instrumentation Program, Applied Technology Council (ATC), and the United States Geological Survey (USGS), for studying various damage characteristics of earthquakes and their impact on seismic design practice. He has served as Editor-in-Chief of Earthquake Spectra, President of EERI, inaugural Chair of the Governance Board of the U.S. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES), and as Chair of the 10th U.S. National Conference on Earthquake Engineering. He has also served as the President of the Los Angeles Tall Buildings Structural Design Council (LATBSDC) and, since 2005, has chaired LATBSDC committee in charge of the development of performance-based design guidelines for seismic design of tall buildings.
Yoichi Mukai graduated from the Faculty of Engineering at Osaka University in 1991 and finished his master degree at the Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University in 1993. After completion of his master degree, he was appointed as a research associate at the Department of Architectural Engineering at Osaka University and as an associate professor in 2002. He received his Ph.D. in Engineering from Osaka University in 2001. His doctoral thesis focused on performance evaluation and application of active response control systems for building structures and it is a result of Dr. Mukai's strong research background on structural response control and control theory. Dr. Mukai was appointed as an associate professor at the Department of Residential Environment, Nara Women's University in 2005. He has been appointed as an associate professor at Graduate School of Engineering, Kobe University since 2011 and he has been vice chair for research projects at the Resilient Structure Research Center (ReSRC), Kobe University since 2016. In 2014, Dr. Mukai was a visiting scholar at the Department of Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at Columbia University in New York City. His research interests focus on the evaluation and monitoring of the structural dynamic mechanisms of actual constructions, as well as on the control of their anti-seismic properties and their protecting building properties against large earthquakes. He is currently working on operating various kinds of real-time hybrid tests on the shaking table to develop and investigate advanced response control systems for building structures."Descrizione articolo" può appartenere a un’altra edizione di questo titolo.
