Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the devastating impact of the Jarrell, Texas tornado of May 27, 1997, offering a critical analysis of the Fujita tornado intensity scale. The author meticulously examines the damage caused by the tornado, revealing inconsistencies between the observed destruction and the F5 rating assigned by the National Weather Service. Through a comprehensive post-storm survey and structural engineering insights, the book argues that the damage is more consistent with an F3 rating. The author highlights the limitations of the Fujita scale, particularly its failure to account for variations in building construction quality and regional design wind speeds. This book challenges conventional assumptions about tornado classification and underscores the importance of accurate assessments in mitigating future disasters. By exposing the flaws in the existing scale, the author advocates for a more nuanced approach to understanding and responding to the destructive power of tornadoes.

Paperback. Condition: New. The classical Melnikov method provides information on the behavior of deterministic planar systems that may exhibit transitions, i.e. escapes from and captures into preferred regions of phase space. This book develops a unified treatment of deterministic and stochastic systems that extends the applicability of the Melnikov method to physically realizable stochastic planar systems with additive, state-dependent, white, colored, or dichotomous noise. The extended Melnikov method yields the novel result that motions with transitions are chaotic regardless of whether the excitation is deterministic or stochastic. It explains the role in the occurrence of transitions of the characteristics of the system and its deterministic or stochastic excitation, and is a powerful modeling and identification tool. The book is designed primarily for readers interested in applications. The level of preparation required corresponds to the equivalent of a first-year graduate course in applied mathematics. No previous exposure to dynamical systems theory or the theory of stochastic processes is required. The theoretical prerequisites and developments are presented in the first part of the book.The second part of the book is devoted to applications, ranging from physics to mechanical engineering, naval architecture, oceanography, nonlinear control, stochastic resonance, and neurophysiology.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Provides structural engineers with the knowledge and practical tools needed to perform structural designs for wind that incorporate major technological, conceptual, analytical and computational advances achieved in the last two decades.  With clear explanations and documentation of the concepts, methods, algorithms, and software available for accounting for wind loads in structural design, it also describes the wind engineer's contributions in sufficient detail that they can be effectively scrutinized by the structural engineer in charge of the design. Wind Effects on Structures: Modern Structural Design for Wind, 4th Edition is organized in four sections. The first covers atmospheric flows, extreme wind speeds, and bluff body aerodynamics. The second examines the design of buildings, and includes chapters on aerodynamic loads; dynamic and effective wind-induced loads; wind effects with specified MRIs; low-rise buildings; tall buildings; and more. The third part is devoted to aeroelastic effects, and covers both fundamentals and applications. The last part considers other structures and special topics such as trussed frameworks; offshore structures; and tornado effects. Offering readers the knowledge and practical tools needed to develop structural designs for wind loadings, this book: Points out significant limitations in the design of buildings based on such techniques as the high-frequency force balanceDiscusses powerful algorithms, tools, and software needed for the effective design for wind, and provides numerous examples of application  Discusses techniques applicable to structures other than buildings, including stacks and suspended-span bridges  Features several appendices on Elements of Probability and Statistics; Peaks-over-Threshold Poisson-Process Procedure for Estimating Peaks; estimates of the WTC Towers? Response to Wind and their shortcomings; and more Wind Effects on Structures: Modern Structural Design for Wind, 4th Edition is an excellent text for structural engineers, wind engineers, and structural engineering students and faculty.…
