Progressive Collapse Analysis of Concrete-filled Steel Tubular Structures (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Since the notorious terrorist attack of the World Trade Center in 2001, researchers and engineers have been forced to review the existing research works and standards in resisting the progressive collapse of structures. From then on, the design of structure against progressive collapse has tended toward quantitative design, rather than qualitative design. The collapse of the COVID-19 epidemic isolation hotel in Quanzhou, China, in 2020 and the vertical collapse of a 12-story apartment in Florida, United States, in 2021 have aroused an upsurge of the research on progressive collapse. More experimental and theoretical works have been focused on this area. This book addresses this issue and provides a valuable reference for the progressive collapse analysis and design of building structures. - Reviews latest references systematically in terms of experiments, simulation, and theory - Introduces different test equipment used in the tests of progressive collapse and also modeling techniques used in the numerical studies of progressive collapse - Includes performance prediction theories used in the analysis of progressive collapse - Comprises considerable information on the tests and simulation and theoretical studies collected from the authors' research in the last 10 years

Autor

Man Xu received a PhD in Structural Engineering from the Harbin Institute of Technology in 2011 and has been teaching at Northeast Forestry University since. Her research focuses on steel-concrete composite structures and steel-wood composite structures as well as progressive collapse performance of steel and composite structures. She has recently won the first prize in one of China's Young Teachers' Contests. She has presided over and completed one project for the National Natural Science Foundation of China, two projects for the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central University, and two laboratory open-funded projects.Shan Gao is a member of the Research Center of Metal and Composite Structures at the Harbin Institute of Technology. The research center was founded by Emeritus Professor Shan-tong Zhong and has been focusing on the performance of concrete-filled steel tubular structures for more than 60 years. Since 2008, the team has collaboratively started working on progressive collapse analysis of steel and composite structures through large experiments, multi-scale simulations, and theoretical prediction. More than 30 papers have been published on this topic with more than 400 citations. The research has generated a proliferation of highly cited papers and has also been included in a Chinese design standard against progressive collapse.Jing-xuan Wang is mainly engaged in the research on the basic theory of steel-concrete composite structure, earthquake resistance, fire resistance, and control of progressive collapse prevention. He has presided over and completed three projects of National Natural Science Foundation of China and won the second prize of Gansu Provincial Scientific and Technological Progress. He has published more than 40 academic papers in the Journal of Civil Engineering, Engineering Structures and other international journals. He is now a member of the Structural Fire Resistance Committee of the Earthquake and Disaster Prevention Branch of the Architectural Society of China, a young member of the National Concrete Teaching Symposium, a core member of the teaching team of the national first-class undergraduate course "Principles of Concrete Structural Design, and a winner of the First Prize of the Sixth National Colleges and Universities Teaching Competition for Young Teachers (Engineering Group).
