Design and Analysis of Shell Structures
Author: M. Farshad
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401712271
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
Shell structures are widely used in the fields of civil, mechanical, architectural, aeronautical, and marine engineering. Shell technology has been enhanced by the development of new materials and prefabrication schemes. Despite the mechanical advantages and aesthetic value offered by shell structures, many engineers and architects are relatively unacquinted with shell behaviour and design. This book familiarizes the engineering and architectural student, as well as the practicing engineer and architect, with the behaviour and design aspects of shell structures. Three aspects are presented: the Physical behaviour, the structural analysis, and the design of shells in a simple, integrated, and yet concise fashion. Thus, the book contains three major aspects of shell engineering: (1) physical understanding of shell behaviour; (2) use of applied shell theories; and (3) development of design methodologies together with shell design examples. The theoretical tools required for rational analysis of shells are kept at a modest level to give a sound grasp of the fundamentals of shell behaviour and, at the same time, an understanding of the related theory, allowing it to be applied to actual design problems. To achieve a physical understanding of complex shell behaviour, quantitative presentations are supplemented by qualitative discussions so that the reader can grasp the `physical feeling' of shell behaviour. A number of analysis and detailed design examples are also worked out in various chapters, making the book a useful reference manual. This book can be used as a textbook and/or a reference book in undergraduate as well as graduate university courses in the fields of civil, mechanical, architectural, aeronautical, and materials engineering. It can also be used as a reference and design-analysis manual for the practicing engineers and architects. The text is supplemented by a number of appendices containing tables of shell analysis and design charts and tables.

HyparActive
Author: Winston Davis

Languages : en
Pages : 47
Book Description
While thin shell structures could offer efficient solutions to modern design problems, designer familiarity with the strengths and limitations of the form have declined in recent years. Thin shell structures are seeing a resurgence of interest due to modern fabrication techniques, but are hampered by the difficulty of balancing form manipulation and structural analysis concerns during early design. In this paper we describe HyparActive, a software tool developed specifically to help designers explore and design a remarkably wide range of thin shell forms. HyparActive provides simple interactive 3D form-manipulation tools for the designer and quick Finite Element Analysis (FEA) feedback regarding the shell's structural behavior. Developed in an algorithmic modeling environment, the tool allows users to define, manipulate and visualize a parametric form consisting of one or more hyperbolic paraboloid (hypar) shell fragments. The shell is put through a quick FEA analysis, using user-specified material properties, and the resulting stresses are used to color-code the model rendering, highlighting overstressed areas. The quick feedback available on a standard PC means the designer can interactively explore how form and stress distributions interact, informing design decisions and enhancing their design "intuition." The thesis also reflects on the challenges of developing an interactive learning tool in a parametric modeling environment and the benefits of including performance analysis in the conceptual design phase.
