Ebook: Computer Analysis and Design of Earthquake Resistant Structures: A Handbook (Advances in Earthquake Engineering)

The Handbook is unique in its kind as it combines in a single volume self-contained chapters on a great variety of structures not found elsewhere in one book, with a wealth of background material covering the required related subjects. No other book on earthquake engineering, old or recent, combines tutorial and state-of-the-art material of this subject from the modern viewpoint of computerized methodologies.

More specifically, the book covers numerical methods in earthquake engineering, stochastic analysis methods, engineering seismology, strong ground motion and site effects, seismic hazard analysis and modeling, buildings, reinforced concrete structures, steel structures, masonry structures, bridges, dams, storage tanks and silos, offshore structures, underground and lifeline structures, seismic isolation and control, and repair and strengthening.
