DESCRIPTION:
"excellent book. the posthumous memory" according to marco. excellent book. the posthumous memory. DR. Edmund S. MelerskiToo bad I did not have time to improve and expand the book
About the AuthorDr Edmund S Melerski, who sadly passed away just before publication of this book, was a Senior Lecturer at the University of Tasmania, Australia. His major research interests were associated with the soil-structure interaction analysis, resulting in a large number of papers and this definitive work.. He had over 35 years of experience in university teaching and research in the area of structures and structural analysis, gained in four countries
A bonus suite of complementary software containing programmes for elastic-plastic soil-structure interaction analyses of beams or strips, laterally-loaded piles or sheet-piles, and long retaining walls is also included. Emphasis is placed on the simplicity of analysis, while maintaining the accuracy of results, and a large number of examples are included as illustration. This package of numerical techniques and software provides a powerful tool which renders design analysis of structures easy and time-efficient. Practising engineers will find this title invaluable, while postgraduate students and researchers working in soil-structure interaction will also find the book-software package very useful.. The applicability of the software is extended to analysis of laterally-loaded piles and bending analysis of retaining walls. This extended and revised second edition elaborates on techniques for the numerical analysis of beams, long strips, circular plates, and circular-cylindrical tanks
