Concrete Structures Subjected to Impact and Blast Loadings and Their Combinations

Although much research focuses on investigating the responses of reinforced concrete (RC) structures under sole impact or blast loads the responses of RC structures under a combination of impact and blast loads currently represent a gap in our knowledge. The combined actions of impact and blast loadings may be applied to RC structures during accidental or intentional collision of vessels vehicles etc. carrying explosive materials. A comprehensive study on the vulnerability of various structural members is carried out using finite element (FE) simulations under combination of impact and blast loads with the variations of various loading- and structural-related parameters and key parameters. This book introduces various structural analysis approaches for concrete structures when subjected to extreme loads such as impact and blast loadings. The theory of the combinations of impact and blast loads is proposed that can provide primary insights to the specific readers to develop new ideas in impact and blast engineering including combined actions of extreme loads arising from real-world intentional or accidental events. This book will be of value to students (undergraduate or postgraduate) engineers and researchers in structural and civil engineering and specifically those who are studying and investigating the performances of concrete structures under extreme loads. | Concrete Structures Subjected to Impact and Blast Loadings and Their Combinations

Urban Quay Walls

Since the thirteenth century quay walls of significant retaining height have been built in the Netherlands in urban environments. Over time structural revisions were often carried out due to excessive deformations or the use of increasingly larger and deeper vessels. These historic quay walls were seldom designed for the current functional requirements they are subjected to. These mostly older quay walls require more maintenance and revisions to secure a certain degree of safety. In some cases they need to be demolished and completely rebuilt. Urban Quay Walls offers safety protocols and a clear approach on how to inspect design and maintain urban quay walls. The book offers: - an insight on the development of urban quay walls; - a description of the main forms (as used in The Netherlands); - quicksteps for the inspection of existing quay walls. Urban Quay Walls presents a proposal for a uniform and standardised method to verify the actual state of current quay walls in urban environments. This handbook presents an overview of the development of urban quay walls over the course of time and describes the main types in use in the Netherlands. Subsequently a method is presented for deciding whether or not a historic quay wall needs to be renovated renewed or maintained.

The interviews were produced and edited by Ron Diamond. Your job is not to be the one with the answers. You should be the one that gets the answers. That’s your job. You need to make friends and get to know your crew. These folks are your talent your bag of tricks. And that’s where you’re going to find answers to the big problems - Andrew Stanton It’s hard. Yet the pain you go through to get what you need for your film enriches you and it enriches the film. – Brenda Chapman Frank and Ollie always used to say that great character animation contains movement that is generated by the character’s thought process. It can’t be plain movement. – John Lasseter The beauty of clay is that it doesn’t have to be too polished or too smooth and sophisticated. You don’t want it to be mechanical and lifeless. – Nick Park The good thing about animation is that tape is very cheap. Let the actor try things. This is where animation gets to play with spontaneity. You want to capture that line as it has never been said before. And most likely if you asked the actor to do it again he or she just can’t repeat that exact performance. But you got it. – Ron Clements | On Animation The Director's Perspective Vol 1

Drystone Retaining Walls Design Construction and Assessment

Take a Detailed Look at the Practice of Drystone Retaining Wall ConstructionDrystone retaining walls make very efficient use of local materials and sit comfortably in their environment. They make an important contribution to heritage and to the character of the landscape and are loved by many people who value the skill and ingenuity that has gone into their construction as well as simply how they look. And yet in engineering terms they are complex. They can deform significantly as their loading changes and their constituent stones weather. This gives them ductility—they deal with changes by adapting to them. In some ways they behave like conventional concrete retaining walls but in many ways they are better. They cannot be designed or assessed correctly unless these differences are understood. Implementing concepts that require no prior knowledge of civil engineering the authors: Explain the behavior of earth retaining structuresProvide a theoretical framework for modeling the mechanical stability of a drystone retaining wallOutline reliable rules for constructing a drystone retaining wallInclude charts to support the preliminary sizing of drystone retaining wallsExamine the relevance of drystone in terms of sustainabilityDescribe more advanced methods of analysisDrystone Retaining Walls: Design Construction and Assessment draws on theoretical work and full-scale practical testing to explain how these structures work without presuming that the reader has received an engineering education.
