The book introduces the comprehensive analysis methodology regarding progressive collapse, and the critical issues may happen in concrete structures. Main topics include: the influential parameters of the development of the main load-resisting mechanisms; the dynamic effects with sudden column remov...
In 1968, a woman on the eighteenth floor of the newly built Ronan Point tower block in London struck a match to light her stove. A minor gas leak ignited, causing a small explosion. In a properly engineered building, this would have blown out the windows. Instead, the blast knocked out a single load...
In this study, a parallel-load bearing system is considered as a conceptual model of long-span cable-supported bridges. The target is to calculate the “stress increase ratio” of the critical cable in a cable-loss scenario. The structural characteristics of the system, including the bending stiff...
This thesis studies the effectiveness of finite element macro modeling approaches in predicting the collapse resisting mechanisms such as the membrane actions. Following the validation studies on structural sub-assemblages, the alternate path mechanism is studied in 3D using nonlinear dynamic analys...

The total collapse of the WTC Twin Towers in New York following the terror attack on 11 September 2001 was a world-shattering event that raised numerous questions, many of which are still not satisfactorily answered. Two are the main questions that can be asked with regard to this collapse from an e...
Many buildings have experienced progressive collapse around the world over the past decades. After the increase of terrorist activities against public and civilian buildings, many countries decided to apply more design procedures to reach higher levels of structural safety against progressive collap...
En el contexto de la profunda crisis civilizatoria que vive la humanidad, se da igualmente una severa crisis de las izquierdas en diferentes partes del mundo. Las propuestas alternativas que fueron representadas por los denominados gobiernos progresistas en América Latina, en lo fundamental, fracas...
There are many regions worldwide which are susceptible to extreme loads such as earthquakes. These can cause loss of life and adverse impacts on civil infrastructures, the environment, and communities. A series of methods and measures have been used to mitigate the effects of these extreme loads. Th...

This book offers a collection of 17 scientific papers about the computational modeling of fracture. Some of the manuscripts propose new computational methods and/or how to improve existing cutting edge methods for fracture. These contributions can be classified into two categories: 1. Methods which ...
These papers were presented at the Third International Workshop on the Performance, Protection and Strengthening of Structures under Extreme Loading - Protect2011 - held in Lugano (Switzerland) from August 30th to September 1st, 2011. This event sprang from the cross-border coop...
