ISBN: 9798192881262 - handbook of modern geotechnical earthquake engineering: a practical reference for seismic hazard, soil response, liquefaction, ground failure, foundation interaction, and mitigation (6 resultados)

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Earthquakes do not affect every site in the same way. Their consequences depend on the ground beneath a structure, the movement that reaches the site, groundwater conditions, and the way soil, foundations, slopes, and infrastructure respond. Understanding these connections is the foundation of sound geotechnical earthquake engineering.This comprehensive handbook guides readers from seismic hazard and ground motion to practical design and field decisions. It connects fundamental theory with site investigation, analysis, mitigation, monitoring, and resilient infrastructure practice.Readers Will Learn How To: - Interpret seismic hazard, earthquake ground motion, and wave propagation.- Evaluate dynamic soil and rock properties.- Plan site investigations and interpret field and laboratory evidence.- Analyse site response, liquefaction, cyclic mobility, and ground failure.- Assess slopes, retaining systems, foundations, piles, and soil-structure interaction.- Select ground-improvement methods and evaluate seismic mitigation strategies.- Model embankments, earth structures, and infrastructure under earthquake loading.- Apply numerical modelling, performance-based assessment, risk, resilience, and monitoring.Clear explanations, core equations, worked examples, analytical tools, and decision frameworks demonstrate how to select appropriate methods and understand their limitations.The book addresses the uncertainties that often control real-world performance, including spatial variability, groundwater conditions, pore-pressure generation, strength degradation, incomplete data, construction conditions, and the difference between calculated predictions and observed field behaviour.It is especially useful for readers who need to move beyond formula selection and make defensible engineering decisions when evidence is incomplete, ground conditions vary across a site, and safety, constructability, performance, and recovery must be considered together throughout the engineering process.Designed for students, researchers, consultants, geotechnical engineers, earthquake engineers, and advanced practitioners, this handbook provides a practical path from first principles to responsible seismic design.Its Canadian framing, SI units, and emphasis on resilient infrastructure make it a useful companion for graduate study, professional development, and real-world engineering projects.…
