Review: The development of high speed vector-array machines and parallel processing facilities enables new algorithms using improved numerical methods based on a more detailed understanding of real material and structural behaviour. In this cross-discipline review the authors present the latest structural analysis strategies from their particular industries, many accompanied by case studies. Applications include: high-rise buildings, long-span roofs, bridges, geotechnical structures, ageing nuclear structures, offshore structures, automobiles, aircraft and ships.
