Beskrivning
Sustainable and Resilient Structures: Structural Engineering, Mechanics, and Materials provides a comprehensive interdisciplinary guide to designing sustainable and resilient structural systems, and to address the challenges of climate change, resource efficiency, and increasing hazards. It explores how the built environment can be designed to achieve both environmental responsibility and long-term structural performance. Organized into five thematic parts, the book covers the foundations of sustainability and resilience, structural design strategies, structural mechanics, sustainable and smart materials, and emerging innovations supported by practical case studies. Key topics include lifecycle assessment, performance-based design, finite element modeling, digital twins, and data-driven approaches for structural design, monitoring, and maintenance. Designed for graduate students, researchers, and practicing engineers, this book serves as both a teaching resource and a professional reference in structural engineering, sustainable design, and infrastructure resilience. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of advanced methodologies for analyzing, designing, and managing structures that can withstand future challenges while reducing environmental impact. By bridging traditional engineering approaches with emerging technologies and systems-level thinking, the book supports the development of safer, more sustainable, and more adaptable infrastructure.Includes practices quizzes and tests along with solutions for students, codes, and online figures, as well as a separate solutions manual for adopting instructors.

Mer om författaren

Dr. Farīborz M. Tehrānī is a Full Professor, Director, Fellow ASCE, Entrepreneurship Faculty Fellow, Professional Civil Engineer, Sustainability Professional, and Project Management Professional with more than 35 years of academic and industry background in structural, geotechnical, and transportation engineering and management. He has contributed to the publication of ten books, nearly 120 papers and technical reports, and presented almost 150 papers and posters. He has been the invited lecturer in ASCE Tech Talk, NCBC, ISI, ASCE STC, ICConcrete, IBC, and other venues and universities worldwide. His research and practice experiences focus on sustainable and resilient structural engineering, mechanics, and materials (SR-SEMM) and include structural analysis and design; earthquake-resistant design; building materials and construction; road and bridge design; and project management. His research on sliding seismic isolation resulted in a patented methodology, Sliding Foundation System with Safety Margin. He has contributed to the engineering design of more than fifty structures and infrastructures; management and planning of numerous private and public infrastructure projects; and development of several research proposals leading to funding from NSF, DOT, and other public and private sources. Fariborz is a Fellow of ASCE and a professional member of ACI, EMI, ASTM, and EWB. He has been a voting member of several ACI and ASTM Committees, the liaison of the EMI in the ASCE STC, the EMI ORC Vice Chair, and the Director of the ESCSI. Further, Dr. Tehrani has served in NCEES, PMI, CHESC, and EMI as a panelist and subject matter expert, as well as the Chair of the ISI Academic Committee, and a director of the ASEE PSW. Fariborz has also been a Johanson's (formerly Coleman) Entrepreneurship Faculty Fellow since 2013. Dr. Tehrani received the ASCE Region 9 Outstanding Faculty Advisor Award in 2015 for leading the Student Chapter from 2010 to 2015, the Best Practice Award from the California Higher Education Sustainability Conference in 2017, and the Best Research Award from ASCE Fresno and San Francisco for two projects in 2019. Fariborz received a BSc from Sharif University of Technology, an MSc from Amirkabir University of Technology, an MS, a Degree of Engineer, and a PhD from the University of California, Los Angeles.
