Download or read book The Spectra Suites written by Adi Da Samraj and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these suites, Adi Da Samraj combines digitally generated imagery with images he created using still and video cameras. To achieve each finished work he then meticulously crafts every detail by digital means. Each of the 10 Spectra Suites is based on one or more of his fundamental images--many of which are a powerful visual and philosophical complexity. --Publisher description.

Download or read book Seismic Resistant Structures written by S. Ivorra and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research studies on the preparation for and mitigation of future earthquakes, an area of increasing importance to many countries around the world, comprise this volume. The selected papers included in this book have been prepared by experts from around the world in the fields of earthquake engineering relevant to the design of structures. As the world’s population has concentrated in urban areas resulting in buildings in regions of high seismic vulnerability, we have seen the consequences of natural disasters take an ever higher toll on human existence. Protecting the built environment in earthquake-prone regions involves not only the optimal design and construction of new facilities, but also the upgrading and rehabilitation of existing structures including heritage buildings, which is an important area of research. Major earthquakes and associated effects, such as tsunamis, continue to stress the need to carry out more research and a better understanding of these phenomena is required to design earthquake resistant buildings and to carry out risk assessment and vulnerability studies.
