Many transmission structures are tested to failure at full-scale, leading to an improved understanding of capacity compared to most structures. Typically when extreme wind events occur, the maximum ...

Cooling towers play a vital role in industrial processes and power generation by dissipating waste heat into the atmosphere. Their unique hyperbolic geometries are designed not only to maximise heat ...

In a trade-off, the simpler methods were deliberately developed to render more conservative results than the more complex procedures, says Ronald O. Hamburger, a senior principal in the San Francisco ...
