Monitoring of civil engineering structures
SPIE Proceedings, 2004Civil engineering structures require geometrical monitoring to assure their integrity during their life time. The monitoring by geodetic devices or according to GPS technology is not always appropriate, sometimes it is unrealizable. Means for monitoring based on automatic geodetic measurements applying optical scanners are proposed.

Corrosion in civil engineering structures
Revue de Métallurgie, 2002The civil engineering structures considered in this paper are reinforced concrete structures and cables. Corrosion tests are used to select the steel grades having the best corrosion resistance. Furthermore, electrochemical techniques, like the measurement of the electrode potential and of the polarization resistance, are applied to structures in ...

Performance-based controller for civil engineering structures
Proceedings of the 2001 American Control Conference. (Cat. No.01CH37148), 2001The authors present two control strategies for applications to civil engineering structures, referred to as the generalized H/sub 2/ based control and peak-to-peak based control, respectively. Both control strategies are capable of addressing the performance-based design of structures, in the sense that the design requirements for the peak response ...

Dynamics of civil engineering structures
Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1997Many of the recently published civil engineering books are a collection of chapters written by individual authors, experts in their respective fields, and assembled by one or many editors. However, with 52 listed authors, this book certainly pushes the multi-author concept a notch further.

Crack propagation analysis in civil engineering structures
Computers & Structures, 1991Abstract A system for crack propagation analysis based on the finite element method is shown. The system is easily applied to the investigation of crack propagation behavior due to fatigue in arbitrary structural members of, for example, steel bridges.

Aluminium Structures in Building and Civil Engineering Applications
Structural Engineering International, 2010Structural applications of aluminium are considered in this paper. Although the discussion is mainly devoted to Europe, the paper also refers, where possible, to developments in other parts of the world. The problems faced by a designer in creating an optimum design are described, followed by a brief review of the research carried out in the past four ...
