The Structural Dynamics of the World Trade Center Catastrophe
Ansgar Schneider
Bažant et al. have proposed a model of a gravity-driven collapse of a tall building which collapses in a progressive-floor collapse after the failure of a single storey. The model…
The Late Jolt -- Re-Examining the World Trade Center Catastrophe
Ansgar Schneider
A model of a gravity-driven collapse of a tall building has been proposed by Bažant et al. We apply this model to the collapse of the North Tower of the World Trade Center to deter…
The Crush-Down Equation for Non-Constant Velocity Profiles
Ansgar Schneider
Bažant et al. have proposed a model for a gravity-driven collapse of a tall building that collapses after column failure in a single storey. Therein the collapsing building is desc…
Energy Estimates of Progressive Floor Collapses and the World Trade Center Catastrophe
Ansgar Schneider
The Simple Collapse Model of Bažant and Zhou is evaluated for a progressive floor collapse of a tall building. A sequence of energy estimates indexed by the collapsing floors is de…
Non-Commutative T-Duality
Siegfried Echterhoff, Ansgar Schneider
A duality theory of bundles of C-algebras whose fibres are twisted transformation group algebras is established. Classical T-duality is obtained as a special case, where all fi…
The Global Topology of Pontrjagin Duality
Ansgar Schneider
Pontrjagin duality is implemented in the framework of fibre bundles. By means of Pontrjagin duality triples a Fourier transform is defined by a pull-push construction operating on…
