constraints. The focus of this work is to understand the nonlinear structural as well as aeroelastic behavior of joined wings. The paper presents a formulation for the nonlinear aeroelastic analysis of joined wings. Results are presented for two joined wings configurations. Overall‚ the joined wings are found to be stiffer than single wing configuration. The ‘non-planar’ joined wing is found to be stiffer than the ‘planar’ joined wing. The structural dynamic characteristics of the joined wings are also presented

are generally unsuitable in weak or highly compressible soils‚ such as poorly-compacted fill‚ peat‚ recent lacustrine and alluvial deposits‚ etc. Pad foundations Pad foundations are used to support an individual point load such as that due to a structural column. They may be circular‚ square or reactangular. They usually consist of a block or slab of uniform thickness‚ but they may be stepped or haunched if they are required to spread the load from a heavy column. Pad foundations are usually shallow

efficiency of the concepts. Laboratory tests and the demonstration of two physical models further confirm the findings. Several practical designs are also provided to show the applicability and significance of these concepts. An alternative definition of structural stiffness is given which complements the existing definition and allows for designing stiffer structures. It is interesting to note that using the concepts may lead to not only stiffer but also more economical and elegant designs. K= P D Tianjian

landslide or tidal wave ( tsunami). The earthquake becomes a dangerous phenomenon only when it is considered in relation with structures. Of course‚ the problem is the structure under seismic excitation and not the earthquake itself. This is because the structural system is designed basically for gravity loads and not for the horizontal inertia loads that are generated due to ground accelerations during an earthquake. Therefore‚ the earthquake has begun to become a problem or humans since they started building

Executive summary The organizational structure of the current company was found to be a flat hierarchy with the departmentalization by function. New proposed structure is advised to be matrix with the functional and service divisions. Contingency models were used by: Joan Woodward‚ James David Thompson‚ Charles Perrow and Burns and Stalker. Models have explained the influence of the situational variables of task‚ technology and size on the creation of the new organizational structure. 1. Introduction

constructing and managing earthquake-resistant structures and facilities In developing the Structural Engineering Slide Library as a resource for teaching structural and architectural engineering‚ the topic of structural dynamics is of prime importance. Earthquake engineering is one of the most visible aspects of this field and one of the most easily illustrated due to the extent and variety of structural damage in earthquakes; thus it was decided to devote a volume to this subject.
