DOWNLOAD EBOOKStructural Equation Modeling is a statistical method increasingly used in scientific studies in the fields of Social Sciences. It is currently a preferred analysis method, especially in doctoral dissertations and academic researches. Many universities do not include this method in the curriculum, so students and scholars try to solve these problems using books and internet resources. This book aims to guide the researcher in a way that is free from math expressions. It teaches the steps of a research program using structured equality modeling practically. For students writing theses and scholars preparing academic articles, this book aims to analyze systematically the methodology of studies conducted using structural equation modeling methods in the social sciences. In as simple language as possible, it conveys basic information. It consists of two parts: the first gives basic concepts of structural equation modeling, and the second gives examples of applications.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKStructural Modeling and Experimental Techniques presents a current treatment of structural modeling for applications in design, research, education, and product development. Providing numerous case studies throughout, the book emphasizes modeling the behavior of reinforced and prestressed concrete and masonry structures. Structural Modeling and Experimental Techniques: Concentrates on the modeling of the true inelastic behavior of structures Provides case histories detailing applications of the modeling techniques to real structures Discusses the historical background of model analysis and similitude principles governing the design, testing, and interpretation of models Evaluates the limitations and benefits of elastic models Analyzes materials for reinforced concrete masonry and steel models Assesses the critical nature of scale effects of model testing Describes selected laboratory techniques and loading methods Contains material on errors as well as the accuracy and reliability of physical modeling Examines dynamic similitude and modeling techniques for studying dynamic loading of structures Covers actual applications of structural modeling This book serves students in model analysis and experimental methods, professionals manufacturing and testing structural models, as well as professionals testing large or full-scale structures - since the instrumentation techniques and overall approaches for testing large structures are very similar to those used in small-scale modeling work.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book presents powerful tools for integrating interrelated composites--such as capabilities, policies, treatments, indices, and systems--into structural equation modeling (SEM). Jörg Henseler introduces the types of research questions that can be addressed with composite-based SEM and explores the differences between composite- and factor-based SEM, variance- and covariance-based SEM, and emergent and latent variables. Using rich illustrations and walked-through data sets, the book covers how to specify, identify, estimate, and assess composite models using partial least squares path modeling, maximum likelihood, and other estimators, as well as how to interpret findings and report the results. Advanced topics include confirmatory composite analysis, mediation analysis, second-order constructs, interaction effects, and importance–performance analysis. Most chapters conclude with software tutorials for ADANCO and the R package cSEM. The companion website includes data files and syntax for the book's examples, along with presentation slides.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book develops methods to simulate and analyze the time-dependent changes of stress and strain states in engineering structures up to the critical stage of creep rupture. The objective of this book is to review some of the classical and recently proposed approaches to the modeling of creep for structural analysis applications. It also aims to extend the collection of available solutions of creep problems by new, more sophisticated examples.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book examines and determine the effects of loads on physical structures and their components. This technology substantially incorporates a number of science and engineering fields, such as material science, applied mechanics, chemistry, mechanical and engineering design, computational simulation, earthquake engineering, architecture, and pharmacological, etc. Therefore, investigation on the research and development of structural analysis and modelling is of great significance and will have profound potential impact on the above areas. This book examines the recent studies and achievements made in the structural analysis and modelling. In the book, Chapters 1 to 5 demonstrate the structural properties and molecular dynamics of chemical materials that are extensively applied in chemistry, chemical engineering, and pharmaceutical. Chapters 6 to 10 present analytical and numerical modelling and analysis of engineering materials and structures, such as honeycomb structures with cellular materials, elastic/plastic discs, stiffened plates, and civil aircraft. Chapters 11 and 12 discuss the structural behaviour and seismic response of engineering architectures through a thorough seismic analysis. The Chapters in this book testify to the vitality of structural analysis and modelling and illustrate the considerable potential for use of these techniques in the future. The book is intended to serve as a reference for researchers and engineers, as well as graduate students.
