    Abstract: The book, after two introductory chapters on seismic design principles and structural seismic analysis methods, proceeds with the detailed description of seismic design methods for steel building structures. These methods include all the well-known methods, like force-based or displacement-based methods, plus some other methods developed by the present authors or other authors that have reached a level of maturity and are applicable to a large class of steel building structures. For every method, detailed practical examples and supporting references are provided in order to illustrate the methods and demonstrate their merits. As a unique feature, the present book describes not just one, as it is the case with existing books on seismic design of steel structures, but various seismic design methods including application examples worked in detail. The book is a valuable source of information, not only for MS and PhD students, but also for researchers and practicing engineers engaged with the design of steel building structures.

    Slope Stochastic Dynamics (2022)
    Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :
    Details
    Keywords: Geotechnical engineering. ; Natural disasters. ; Engineering design. ; Civil engineering. ; Sustainability. ; Geotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth Sciences. ; Natural Hazards. ; Engineering Design. ; Civil Engineering. ; Sustainability.
    Abstract: This book provides a new framework for analysis of slope nonlinear stochastic seismic dynamic response based on the new theoretical tool of stochastic dynamics. The coupling effects of uncertainty of geological parameters, strong dynamic nonlinearity, and randomness of ground motion are considered in the process of the seismic dynamic stability assessment of slope. In this book, an intensity frequency non-stationary stochastic ground motion model based on time-domain stochastic process description is preliminarily established to characterize the randomness of earthquakes. The spatial distribution random field model of geotechnical parameters is established to describe the time-space variability of geotechnical parameters. Based on the basic theory of stochastic dynamics, the seismic stability performance evaluation method of slope is established. The slope seismic dynamic model test based on large complex shaking table is performed to verify and modify the proposed framework and method. This book sheds new light on the development of nonlinear seismic stochastic dynamics and seismic design of slope engineering. .

    Description / Table of Contents: Foreword -- Chapter 1 Introduction -- Chapter 2 Classification and geological identification of hazard-causing system for water and mud inrush in tunnel -- Chapter 3 Typical cases and analysis of water and mud inrush in tunnel -- Chapter 4 Route selection of tunnel in karst area -- Chapter 5 Interval dynamic risk assessment of water and mud rush in tunnel construction -- Chapter 6 Resistance body assessment method against water and mud inrush in tunnel -- Chapter 7 Identification method of water and mud inrush hazard-causing system in tunnel -- Chapter 8 Dynamic management and analysis platform of water and mud inrush cases in tunnel -- References -- Appendix.
    Abstract: This book is composed of eight chapters, introducing the authors’ research and application achievements in the hazard-causing system and disaster evaluation of water and mud inrush in tunnels over the past 10 years. Through a large number of case studies and analysis, and on the basis of existing research, this book puts forward 3 categories and 11 types of tunnel water and mud inrush hazard-causing systems and 4 typical water and mud inrush disaster-forming modes. The authors carefully study the typical cases of tunnel water and mud inrush hazard-causing system, discuss the types of karst water system, structural characteristics, macro-geological identification, engineering identification, karst tunnel route selection principles and evaluation methods in detail, and then develop a dynamic evaluation method of tunnel water and mud inrush construction risk interval and an evaluation method for the resistance body. Ultimately, the authors put forward a systematic identification method of tunnel water and mud inrush disaster, which integrates geological identification, geophysical exploration identification, and drilling identification, and construct a dynamic management and analysis platform for tunnel water and mud inrush cases. This book is used as a reference book for teachers, graduate students, and undergraduates in colleges and universities of civil engineering, transportation, water conservancy and hydropower, mining, geology, etc., and also as a reference for technicians in related engineering fields.

    Guidelines for Probabilistic Performance-Based Seismic Design and Assessment of Slope Engineering (2023)
    Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :
    Details
    Keywords: Geotechnical engineering. ; Natural disasters. ; Engineering design. ; Engineering geology. ; Sustainability. ; Geotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth Sciences. ; Natural Hazards. ; Engineering Design. ; Geoengineering. ; Sustainability.
    Description / Table of Contents: Introduction -- Terms and Notations -- Performance-based Seismic Design of Slope -- Seismic Ground Motion Excitations for Slope Seismic Dynamic Performance Design and Assessment -- Deterministic Analysis Methods for Slope Seismic Dynamic Response -- Probabilistic Performance-based Seismic Design and Assessment for Slope Engineering -- Case Study -- Conclusions and Prospects.
    Abstract: This book provides a new design and evaluation framework based on slope Stochastic Dynamics theory to probabilistic seismic performance for slope engineering. For the seismic dynamic stability safety of slope, it shifts from deterministic seismic dynamic analysis to quantitative analysis based on nonlinear stochastic dynamics, that is, from qualitative to the description of stochasticity of earthquake excitation that meet the needs in related design specification and establish a performance standard. In the nonlinear dynamic time history analysis of slope subjected to seismic ground motion, the term “randomness” is used to express the uncertainty in the intensity and frequency of earthquake excitation for slope engineering dynamic seismic performance. It mainly includes seismic design fortification standard, corresponding ground motion excitation, performance index threshold, and slope deterministic nonlinear seismic dynamic response. Even more than that, the seismic dynamic large deformation approaches of the whole process and comprehensive analysis for flow analysis after slope instability failure. Eventually, the probabilistic seismic dynamic performance of the slope engineering will be characterized by nonlinear dynamic reliability.

    Abstract: This book contains the best papers accepted for presentation at the 3rd Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-3). The book is divided into three parts to distinguish research studies from the fields of (1) geological and geotechnical engineering, (2) geomechanical studies based on numerical and analytical methods, and (3) geo-informatics and remote sensing. The content of these papers provides new scientific knowledge for further understanding on landslides, new stabilization techniques, importance of geophysics for engineering geology investigations as well as new empirical approaches for easily predicting some physical and hydrogeomechanical properties of geomaterials. It also sheds the light on usage of different remote sensing technologies, mapping techniques in a geographic information systems environment along with some advanced signal processing, and deep learning approaches. The book is of interest to all researchers, practitioners, and students in the fields of geological and mining engineering, geotechnical engineering, hydrogeomechanics, engineering geology, geotechnologies, groundwater and natural hazards, and analyses of some emerging earth processes and environmental variabilities.
