From Materials to Structures : Advancement through Innovation is a collection of peer-reviewed papers presented at the 22nd Australasian Conference on the Mechanics of Structures and Materials (ACMSM22) held in Sydney Australia, from 11-14 December 2012 by academics, researchers and practising engineers mainly from Australasia and the Asia-Pacific region. The topics under discussion include:
-
Biomechanics
-
Composite structures and materials
-
Computational mechanics
-
Concrete, masonry, steel and timber structures
-
Earthquake engineering and structural dynamics
-
Fire engineering
-
Geomechanics
-
Foundation engineering
-
Innovative and smart structures
-
Pavement engineering
-
Rehabilitation of structures
-
Rock engineering
-
Site investigation
-
Soil improvement and reinforcement
-
Structural health monitoring
-
Structural optimisation
-
Sustainable materials
From Materials to Structures : Advancement through Innovation will be a valuable reference for academics, researchers and practising engineers working in structural and material engineering and mechanics.
