Compaq Visual Fortran: A Guide to Creating Windows Applications is the only book that shows developers how to create Windows applications using Visual Fortran software. It complements Digital Press's successful reference, the Digital Visual Fortran Programmer's Guide. Lawrence details development methods and techniques for creating Fortran applications for Windows, the platform upon which developers can use Compaq Visual Fortran (CVF; to be Intel Visual Fortran in the future) to create applications. The book teaches CVF programming progressively, beginning with simple tasks and building up to writing professional-level Win32 applications. Readers will learn about the powerful new CVF graphical user interface, as well as the intricacies of Windows development from a CVF perspective. They can master QuickWin, the Win32 APIs including multiple document interfaces, and Open GL with 3D and interactive graphics. Provides practical, step-by-step instructions for developing Visual Fortran applications Only tutorial text for Compaq Visual Fortran (CVF) Doesn't require the programmer to learn C or C++

Investigates the sensitivity of fragility curves when uncertainties in limit states are considered. Influence of structural and response parameters, such as stiffness, acceleration and displacement thresholds, input ground motions, and uncertainties due to structural modeling are investigated. A demonstration hospital in the San Fernando Valley was used to show the applicability of this technique
