دانلود کتاب Seismic Engineering

This title offers a comprehensive coverage of the many facets of seismic engineering. The first half of the book is devoted to seismic phenomena and hazards, detailing the causes of earthquakes, the parameters used to characterize earthquakes, strong ground motions, seismic hazards and their evaluation, and seismic action. The second half discusses the effects of earthquakes and tools used to assess and reduce risk, including the effects of vibratory motions and induced phenomena, seismic calculations and technical aspects of prevention. The importance of keeping orders of magnitude in mind (i.e. through reasoning or very simple equations) when discussing seismic phenomena and their effects is emphasized, a task which most people overlook because of their rarity and the brevity of their manifestations.Content: Chapter 1 Causes of Earthquakes (pages 5–53): Chapter 2 Parameters Used to Define Earthquakes (pages 55–105): Chapter 3 Manifestations of the Seismic Phenomena on the Surface (pages 107–160): Chapter 4 Strong Vibratory Motions (pages 165–222): Chapter 5 Calculation Models for Strong Vibratory Motions (pages 223–273): Chapter 6 The Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Seismicity (pages 281–314): Chapter 7 Assessment of Seismic Hazard (pages 315–358): Chapter 8 The Seismic Coefficient (pages 365–374): Chapter 9 The Response Spectrum (pages 375–432): Chapter 10 Other Representations of Seismic Action (pages 433–465): Chapter 11 Deformation Effects Sustained by Superficial Ground (pages 473–495): Chapter 12 Effects of Vibratory Motions (pages 497–571): Chapter 13 Effects of Induced Phenomena (pages 573–580): Chapter 14 Scales of Macroseismic Intensity (pages 581–602): Chapter 15 Linear Seismic Calculation (pages 607–701): Chapter 16 Notions on Soil/Structure Interaction (pages 703–765): Chapter 17 Overview of Nonlinear Calculations (pages 767–832): Chapter 18 Technical Aspects of Prevention (pages 839–931):
