Extreme Man-Made and Natural Hazards in Dynamics of Structures (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Ibrahimbegovic, Adnan; Kozar, Ivica

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a critical assessment of current knowledge and indicates new challenges which are brought about at present times by fighting man-made and natural hazards in transient analysis of structures. The latter concerns both permanently fixed structures, such as those built to protect people and/or sensitive storage material; or special structures, like bridges and tunnels; and moving structures such as trains, planes, ships or cars.
