Structure and Infrastructure Engineering - Book Series

Structures and Infrastructures (ISSN 1747-7735) is a new series of peer-reviewed monographs, edited volumes and textbooks at post-graduate/graduate level intended for researchers, practitioners and students working on the assessment, design, maintenance, management and cost analysis of structures and infrastructures.

Structures and Infrastructures comprises high-quality publications on the research, development and application of the most advanced technologies for analyzing, predicting and optimizing the performance of virtually all structures and infrastructures, such as buildings, bridges, dams, underground construction, offshore platforms, pipelines, naval vessels, ocean structures, nuclear power plants, and also airplanes, aerospace and automotive structures.

The series includes mathematical modelling, computer and experimental methods, practical infrastructure applications in the areas of assessment and evaluation, construction and design for durability, decision making, deterioration modelling and aging, failure analysis, field testing, financial planning, inspection and diagnostics, life-cycle analysis and prediction, loads, maintenance strategies, management systems, nondestructive testing, optimization of maintenance and management, specifications and codes, structural safety and reliability, system analysis, time-dependent performance, rehabilitation, repair, replacement, reliability and risk management, service life prediction, strengthening and whole life costing.
