This book is dedicated to the study of an aeroelastic phenomenon of cable supported long span bridges known as flutter, and proposes very innovative design methodologies, such as sensitivity analysis and optimization techniques, already utilized successfully in automobile and aerospace industries. The topic of long-span suspension and cable-stayed bridges is currently of great importance. These types of bridge pose great technical difficulties due to their slenderness and often great dimension. Therefore, these bridges tend to have problems caused by natural forces such as wind loads, some of which we have witnessed in our history, and we are currently seeing a very high incidence of bridge construction to overcome geographical obstacles such as bays, straits, or great estuaries. Therefore, it seems very appropriate to write a book showing the current capability of analysis and design, when up until now, the information could only be found partially in technical articles. This book will be useful for bridge design engineers as well as researchers working in the field. This book only requires previous knowledge of structural finite element models and dynamics, and it is advisable to have some previous knowledge in bridge engineering. Nevertheless, this book is very self-contained in such a way that all the information necessary to understand the theoretical developments is presented without the need of additional bibliography.
CD-ROM contains: the mechanical design software MDESIGN, which "enables users to quickly complete the design of many of the machine elements discussed in the book."
En la asignatura de Teoría de estructura que se acostumbra a impartir en los ciclos superiores de algunas especialidades de ingeniería, entre otros temas, se desarrolla el cálculo matricial de las estructuras de barras mediante el método de la rigidez. Para facilitar al estudiante el proceso de aprendizaje, en un plan de estudios especialmente denso, se ha confeccionado el material didáctico necesario para conseguir los conocimientos que se exigen en esta materia.
The first Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (PCSMGE) was held in Mexico in 1959. Every 4 years since then, PCSMGE has brought together the geotechnical engineering community from all over the world to discuss the problems, solutions and future challenges facing this engineering sector. Sixty years after the first conference, the 2019 edition returns to Mexico. This book, Geotechnical Engineering in the XXI Century: Lessons learned and future challenges, presents the proceedings of the XVI Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (XVI PCSMGE), held in Cancun, Mexico, from 17 – 20 November 2019. Of the 393 full papers submitted, 335 were accepted for publication after peer review. They are included here organized into 19 technical sessions, and cover a wide range of themes related to geotechnical engineering in the 21st century. Topics covered include: laboratory and in-situ testing; analytical and physical modeling in geotechnics; numerical modeling in geotechnics; unsaturated soils; soft soils; foundations and retaining structures; excavations and tunnels; offshore geotechnics; transportation in geotechnics; natural hazards; embankments and tailings dams; soils dynamics and earthquake engineering; ground improvement; sustainability and geo-environment; preservation of historic sites; forensics engineering; rock mechanics; education; and energy geotechnics. Providing a state-of-the-art overview of research into innovative and challenging applications in the field, the book will be of interest to all those working in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. In this proceedings, 58% of the contributions are in English, and 42% of the contributions are in Spanish or Portuguese.
El presente texto es una nueva edición de las notas de clase preparadas por Julio C. Massa y Carlos A. Prato para la primera parte del curso de Cálculo Estructural I de las carreras de Ingeniería Mecánica, Mecánica Electricista y Aeronáutica que se dictan en la facultad. El curso de Análisis Estructural para la carrera de Ingeniería Civil (2005) tiene como primera parte (de un total de tres partes) un temario similar pero con ciertas diferencias al tratado en aquellas notas, razón por la que se ha considerado conveniente adaptar el contenido original con algunas consideraciones especiales y aplicaciones para la ingeniería civil. En esta tarea han colaborado los integrantes de la cátedra de Análisis Estructural, especialmente Marcelo A. Ceballos y Federico Pinto con sugerencias y correcciones al texto. La preparación de los archivos digitales de texto y figuras fueron realizadas por Gastón Zenteno, becario del Departamento de Estructuras.JORGE SARMIENTO - EDITORUNIVERSITAS - EDITORIAL CIENTÍFICA UNIVERSITARIA DE CÓRDOBAEste libro contiene el desarrollo de los siguientes temas: -1.
