Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -During the last decade, the state-of-the-art in Earthquake Engineering Design and Analysis has made significant steps towards a more rational analysis of structures. This book reviews the fundamentals of displacement based methods. Starting from engineering seismology and earthquake geotechnical engineering, it proceeds to focus on design, analysis and testing of structures with emphasis on buildings and bridges. 224 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Papers in this book provide a state-of-the-art examination of waves in pre-stressed materials. You'll gain new perspectives via a multi-disciplinary approach that interweaves key topics. These topics include the mathematical modeling of incremental material response (elastic and inelastic), an analysis of the governing differential equations, and boundary-value problems. Detailed illustrations help you visualize key concepts and processes. 292 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Written by seven internationally known experts, the articles in this book present the fundamentals and practical applications of contemporary wind engineering. It covers complex problems in wind-building interaction from the perspective of a structural designer, examining both experimental and computational approaches and their relative merits. 240 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -The papers in this book provide a unique state-of-the-art multidisciplinary overview on the subject of waves in pre-stressed materials through the interaction of several topics, ranging from the mathematical modelling of incremental material response (elastic and inelastic), to the analysis of the governing differential equations and boundary-value problems, and to computational methods for the solution to these problems, with particular reference to industrial, geophysical, and biomechanical applications.A complete view on the title subject is proposed, including: The basic and fundamental theoretical issues (mechanical modelling, exact solutions, asymptotic methods, numerical treatment); A unified introduction to wave propagation (small on large and large on large); A look toward classical (such as geophysics and the mechanics of rubber-like solids) and emergent (such as biomechanics) applications.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 292 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Learn to use probabilistic techniques to solve problems in geotechnical engineering. The book reviews the statistical theories needed to develop the methodologies and interpret the results. Next, the authors explore probabilistic methods of analysis, such as the first order second moment method, the point estimate method, and random set theory. Examples and case histories guide you step by step in applying the techniques to particular problems. 356 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Soils and rocks are among the most variable of all engineering materials, and as such are highly amenable to a probabilistic treatment. The application of statistical and probabilistic concepts to geotechnical analysis is a rapidly growing area of interest for both academics and practitioners. The book is therefore aimed at students, researchers, and practitioners of geotechnical engineering who wish to keep abreast of developments in this evolving field of study. The course content and will assume no more that an introductory understanding of probability and statistics on the part of the course participants.The main objective is to present a state-of-the-art training on probabilistic techniques applied to geotechnical engineering in relation to both theory and practice.Including:(a) discussion of potential benefits of probabilistic approaches as opposed to the classical ¿Factor of Safety¿ methods, to review sources of uncertainty in geotechnical analysis and to introduce methods of LRFD and reliability concepts in Eurocode 7(b) review of relevant statistical theories needed to develop the methodologies and interpret the results of probabilistic analysis(c) examples of established probabilistic methods of analysis in geotechnical engineering, such as the First Order Second Moment (FOSM) method, the Point Estimate Method (PEM), the First and Second Order Reliability Methods (FORM SORM) and Random Set (RS) theory(d) description of numerical methods of probabilistic analysis based on the finite element method, such as the Stochastic Finite Element Method (SFEM) and recent developments on the Random Finite Element Method (RFEM)(e) practical examples and case histories of probabilistic applications in geotechnical engineering.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 356 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -'Sie haben nichts', 'Seien Sie froh, dass Sie nicht wirklich krank sind', 'Anderen geht es auch nicht immer gut, die klagen aber nicht so viel wie Sie' - jeder vierte bis fünfte Patient geht zum Arzt mit körperlichen Beschwerden, die keine oder keine hinreichende organische Ursache haben. Im international verbindlichen Diagnoseschema ICD-10 werden diese Beschwerden als 'Somatoforme Störungen' bezeichnet. Somatoforme Störungen erfordern eine interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit von Hausärzten, Fachärzten, Psychologen und Psychotherapeuten. Das Buch beschreibt die somatoformen und dissoziativen Störungen mit ihren wichtigsten Beschwerdebildern und bietet eine allgemein verständliche Zusammenfassung der theoretischen und therapeutischen Konzepte für einen größeren Leserkreis, der über die spezielle Zielgruppe von Psychotherapeuten, Psychologen, Ärzten und übrigem medizinischem Personal hinausgeht.In der 2., überarbeiteten und erweiterten Auflage wird die neueste Literatur berücksichtigt, vor allem jedoch werden therapeutische Konzepte für die klinische Praxis ausführlicher als bisher dargestellt. Ein neu erstellter Selbsthilfe-Teil soll Betroffenen eine erste Orientierung ermöglichen, kann aber auch von Fachleuten im Sinne einer Arbeitserleichterung an die Patienten weitergegeben werden. 424 pp. Deutsch.
