Detailing the proceedings of the Wave 2002 workshop at Okayama University in Japan, this collection of eighteen peer-reviewed papers concerns the issue of the ground vibration and noise caused by construction activities, explosions in the ground, or high-speed trains.
These proceedings present high-level research in structural engineering, concrete mechanics and quasi-brittle materials, including the prime concern of durability requirements and earthquake resistance of structures.
The papers from these proceedings address experimental and analytical methods for the characterization and analysis of modern composite and adhesive systems.
Containing papers from the Special Technical Session on Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering, this volume includes coverage of: zonation maps; liquefaction; side effects; ground motions; slope instability; seismic behaviour of slopes; dikes and dams; and warning systems.
This title covers the fundamental properties of rock joints, the method of laboratory testing of rock joints, and shear strength assessment under different loading conditions.
