Advances in Frontier Research on Engineering Structures
Author: A. Cheshmehzangi
Publisher: IOS Press
ISBN: 1643684132
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 724
Book Description
Civil architecture and structural engineering may be subjects to which most of us never give a second thought, but both these disciplines are crucial to the built environment in which we live, and without the skills of those who work in them, our buildings and infrastructure would lack the safety and reliability that we all take for granted. This book presents the proceedings of ICCASE 2023, the 7th International Conference on Civil Architecture and Structural Engineering, held in Guangzhou, China, from 14 - 16 April 2023 as a virtual event, and attended by around 250 international participants. The aim of the conference was to discuss recent advances and new perspectives in civil architecture and structural engineering, and to gain insight into the current state of the field and future scenarios. A total of 190 submissions were received for the conference, of which 78 were accepted for presentation after peer review. These are divided into 4 sections: civil construction and underground structure analysis; underground space and special structure engineering; construction material quality and performance research; and structural seismic design and reinforcement engineering. Topics covered included high-rise buildings and large-span structures; the monitoring and control of structures, tunnels and underground structures; calculation principles of the seismic design of structures; and seismic isolation technology of structures, among others. The book offers a comprehensive overview of civil architecture and structural engineering today, and will be of interest to all those working in the field.

Advanced Materials and Techniques for Structural Monitoring, Analysis and Control
Author: Chun-Xu Qu
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832550290
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 187
Book Description
Assessing the service status and maintaining the safety of existing structures are critical to the sustainable operations of various engineering and cross-industry, including civil infrastructures, railways and machinery. Static and dynamic structural characteristics play a key role in the global deterioration assessment of the structural performance, which has enabled structural monitoring and analysis technology to become an active focus in the engineering area. Meanwhile, structural control has been widely used in modern structural engineering. Structural control devices are implemented to enhance deteriorating structures and mitigate natural disasters. Through advanced structural control technology, the structural responses can be controlled. These structural control techniques include passive, active or semi-active reverse forces, which aim to modify structural stiffness, mass and damping with minimal control force. Structural control, monitoring and analysis complement each other, ensuring the safety of the structure to the greatest extent.

Recent Advances in Durability Improvement and Low-Carbon Strategy of Engineering Materials and Structures
Author: Zhongya Zhang
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2832553672
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Global warming, caused by a significant increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) such as CO2, has become a concern all over the world. The whole process carbon emissions of the civil engineering industry account for nearly 40% of global energy and process-related CO2 emissions, more than half of which come from the process of producing, using, constructing and dismantling in civil engineering materials and structures, resulting in the embodied carbon emissions. With the acceleration of global warming, warmer and uncertain climates will make engineering materials and structures subject to more severe environmental conditions. A series of durability issues will occur more frequently, such as the significant variations of humidity in air, the chloride-induced corrosion caused by the severe chloride ingress, concrete cracking caused by the expansion of rusts, and more severe carbonation of concrete structures due to the increase in CO2 concentration. The adoption of positive measures to address climate change has become a global consensus, as global warming has led to serious threats and challenges to the survival and development of humankind.
