Computational and Structural Engineering Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses analysis to study building collapse and the earthquake-time motion of nonstructural components.
AboutAbout the lab
Tracing how buildings collapse through analysis.
The Computational and Structural Engineering Lab uses analysis to study how buildings and nonstructural components move and break during earthquakes.
Besides behavior during earthquakes, the lab lists fluid-structure interaction analysis, analysis and experimental systems for blast demolition of frame structures, and progressive collapse analysis among its research topics.
Current students are working on developing analysis methods for timber frame structures and on collision analysis between transport vehicles and loaded pallet racks, among other topics.
The lab's website introduces it under the name "Isobe Lab."
Key terms
- Nonstructural components
- The parts of a building other than its structural frame, such as furniture and ceilings
- Progressive collapse
- A phenomenon in which the failure of one part of a building triggers damage that spreads step by step until the whole structure collapses
- Fluid-structure interaction analysis
- Analysis that computes together how fluid motion and structural deformation affect each other
