Structural Optimization

Dynamic and Seismic Applications

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Today's biggest structural engineering challenge is to design stronger structures, and a key issue is the need to take an integrated approach that balances control of costs with the requirement for withstanding earthquakes and other dynamic forces. Structural optimization is based on rigorous mathematical formulation and requires computation alg
