The findings are published in the Journal of Engineering Mechanics. \r\n\r\nPrevious studies have tended to focus on the initial stages of collapse, showing that there was an initial, localized failure around the aircraft impact zones, and that this probably led to the progressive collapse of both structures. \r\n\r\nIn other words, the damaged parts of the tower were bound to fall down, but it was not clear why the undamaged building should have offered little resistance to these falling parts. \r\n\r\n&quot;The initiation part has been quantified by many people; but no one had put numbers on the progressive collapse,&quot; Dr Seffen told the BBC News website. \r\n\r\nDr Seffen was able to calculate the &quot;residual capacity&quot; of the undamaged building: that is, simply speaking, the ability of the undamaged structure to resist or comply with collapse. \r\n\r\nHis calculations suggest the residual capacity of the north and south towers was limited, and that once the collapse was set in motion, it would take only nine seconds for the building to go down. \r\n\r\nThis is just a little longer than a free-falling coin, dropped from the top of either tower, would take to reach the ground.\r\n\r\nHe added that his calculations showed this was a &quot;very ordinary thing to happen&quot; and that no other intervention, such as explosive charges laid inside the building, was needed to explain the behavior of the buildings. \r\n\r\nThe controlled detonation idea, espoused on several internet websites, asserts that the manner of collapse is consistent with synchronized rows of explosives going off inside the World Trade Center. \r\n\r\nThis would have generated a demolition wave that explained the speed, uniformity and similarity between the collapses of both towers. \r\n\r\nConspiracy theorists assert that these explosive &quot;squibs&quot; can actually be seen going off in photos and video footage of the collapse. These appear as ejections of gas and debris from the sides of the building, well below the descending rubble. \r\n\r\nOther observers say this could be explained by debris falling down lift shafts and impacting on lower floors during the collapse. \r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/2\/hi\/science\/nature\/6987965.stm \r\n\r\nDr. Keith A. Seffen\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/www.eng.cam.ac.uk\/~kas14\/ \r\n\r\nBelow is the list of people who have staked their reputations on the only paper which passed the scrutiny of peer review regarding the WTC tragedy...\r\n\r\nFor those who may think that no one has written a peer reviewed paper on the collapse of the towers here it is...\r\n\r\n&quot;Walter P. Murphy Professor of \r\n\r\nCivil Engineering and Materials Science\r\n\r\nNorthwestern University\r\n\r\nThe towers of the World Trade Center were designed to withstand as a whole the horizontal impact of a large commercial aircraft. So why did a total collapse occur? The reason is the dynamic consequence of the prolonged heating of the steel columns to very high temperature. The heating caused creep buckling of the columns of the framed tube along the perimeter of the structure, which transmits the vertical load to the ground. The likely scenario of failure may be explained as follows... \r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/www-math.mit.edu\/~bazant\/WTC\/WTC-asce.pdf \r\n\r\nThe version linked above, to appear in the Journal of Engineering Mechanics (ASCE), was revised and extended (with Yong Zhou on September 22 and additional appendices on September 28) since the original text of September 13, which was immediately posted at various civil engineering web sites, e.g. University of Illinios.

Tell me, have you written a thesis and turned it in for peer review? If your so convinced that the government did this write a paper, supply your supporting evidence, and submit it to any university in the world for review. \r\n\r\nIts easy to sit there in your delusional world and make allegation and comments when you have no apparent education or idea's of what occurred. You do not understand or have any comprehension as to what took place. There are thousands of thesis from just about all of the applied science that were involved in the destruction that occurred on 9\/11 but because of your limited ability to comprehend what is in these papers ( do to your lack of education)  you come to the conclusion that it is a conspiracy.\r\n\r\nEven your most educated ally or father of the conspiracy theory movement Steven E. Jones avoided the appropriate procedures involved in peer review.\r\n\r\nBYU College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences and the faculty of structural engineering issued statements in which they distanced themselves from Jones' work.\r\n\r\n&quot;They noted that Jones' &quot;hypotheses and interpretations of evidence were being questioned by scholars and practitioners,&quot; and expressed doubts about whether they had been &quot;submitted to relevant scientific venues that would ensure rigorous technical peer review&quot; \r\n\r\n&quot;Jones maintains that the paper was peer-reviewed prior to publication, though it has never been published in an independent peer-reviewed journal.&quot;\r\n\r\nOn September 7, 2006, Jones removed his paper from BYU's website at the request of administrators and was placed on paid leave.[28] The university cited its concern about the &quot;increasingly speculative and accusatory nature&quot; of Jones' work and the concern that perhaps it had &quot;not been published in appropriate scientific venues&quot; as reasons for putting him under review. Source: http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Steven_E._Jones\r\n\r\nIt obvious that anything that suggest to you or the others in your movement that they are wrong is quickly discounted. I would really like to know your true educational background. Did you complete high school? and if so, how old are you?  I bring age into the equation because it is well known that our public education system has deteriorated over the past 20 years. your average  high school graduated of today has a reading, vocabulary, and comprehension level of a seventh grader compared to about 30 years ago.\r\n\r\nHere is another one you can dicount.:\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=L9KxH-a6Hx4&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Edebunking911%2Ecom%2Ffirsttime%2Ehtm","author":"Just a guy","parent_id":207031,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2007-09-17 11:11:32","modified":"2007-09-17 11:11:32","fileurl":""},{"id":207198,"heading":"Wck?  ha ha ha","article":"here's the deal.\r\nCan't you address the hard points of my \r\narguments w\/o referring to some\r\nready data base  your unit provides?\r\nExplain:\r\nYour U tube FRAUD about WTC7\r\nlet's begin there.\r\nWTC7 had no visible major or even minor structural damage \r\nevident in any shot views.
