Role of Compaction Ratio in the Mathematical Model of Progressive Collapse
Charles M. Beck
We derive a mathematical model of progressive collapse and examine role of compaction. Contrary to a previous result by Bažant and Verdure, J. Engr. Mech. ASCE 133 (2006) 308, we f…

Descent curve and the phases of collapse of WTC 7
Charles M. Beck
We examine four WTC 7 descent curves, labeled "C," "E," "N," and "O," either anonymously published, or confidentially communicated to us. Descent curve describes apparent height of…

Mathematical Models of Progressive Collapse and the Question of How Did the World Trade Centers Perish
Charles M. Beck
We derive discrete and continuous class of mathematical models that describe a progressive collapse in a fictional one-dimensional structure, where we consider plastic and elastic…
