Modelling and Computation in Engineering

In recent years the theory and technology of modelling and computation in engineering has expanded rapidly, and has been widely applied in various kinds of engineering projects. Modelling and Computation in Engineering is a collection of 37 contributions, which cover the state-of-the-art on a broad range of topics, including:

- Tunnelling

- Seismic reduction technologies

- Wind-induced vibration control

- Asphalt-rubber concrete

- Open boundary field problems

- Road structures

- Bridge structures

- Earthquake engineering

- Steel structures

Modelling and Computation in Engineering will be much of interest to academics, leading engineers, industry researchers and scholar students in engineering and engineering-related disciplines.
