<br />
This book systematically covers underlying principles of hydrology in
chapters 1 - 10 and then delves deeper into the application of these
principles to practical problems in the field throughout the remainder
of the prose. <b> </b> Covers all aspects of the hydrologic cycle, and
the manner in which they may be modified to deal with floods, droughts,
potable water supply and urban drainage. <b> </b> For anyone who expect
to become involved in programs that are concerned with the development,
management and protection of water resources.<br />
<br />
From the Back Cover: For the fifth edition, <b> <i>Introduction to Hydrology</i></b><i> </i>
has been significantly revamped and restructured, offering the reader
content that is focused and streamlined. Many graduate level subjects
and topics that were considered to be more of a handbook variety have
been eliminated, in keeping with the original philosophy of the book,
which was to focus on providing a scope of material that would support a
theory-to-practice learning experience for beginning students in
hydrology. The sequencing of chapters is designed to lead students
through the underlying principles of hydrology and then to introduce
them to the world of applications.<br />
<br />
<b>Notable changes in this fifth edition include:</b> The restructured and streamlined fifth edition consists of 13 chapters, whereas the fourth edition consisted of 27 chapters. + The
chapter on statistics has been moved to an early position in the book
so as to introduce these techniques before they are applied to problems
in later chapters. + There are many new solved examples and homework problems. + Web addresses useful for securing hydrologic data and relevant information to supplement the text have been added.GeoEngineeringshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18188850017669472293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736739681027891019.post-89533106537198297162024-03-08T01:04:00.002+03:002024-03-08T01:04:24.251+03:00EnSoft Suite 2024 UpDated<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The recent worldwide boom in industrial
construction and the corresponding billions of dollars spent every year
in industrial, oil, gas, and petrochemical and power generation project,
has created fierce competition for these projects. Strong management
and technical competence will bring your projects in on time and on
budget. An in-depth exploration of both these aspects and the resulting
challenges, <b>Construction Management and Design of Industrial Concrete and Steel Structures</b> provides a practical guide to the design of reinforced concrete and steel structures and foundations in industrial projects.<br />
<br />
Renowned
expert Mohamed A. El-Reedy covers the entire industrial construction
process, from project management to design and construction to sigh off
and providing a maintenance plan. Highlighting the differences between
industrial construction and real estate or residential construction, he
examines every phase and every role, from managerial to technical. He
includes cases from industrial projects and covers the international
technical practices, codes, and standards used in steel or concrete
onshore or offshore projects. The book provides up-to-date methodologies
in structure analysis, geotechnical studies, and international special
codes and standards for industrial structures such as tanks, foundation
under towers, machines, and special structures in industrial projects.
It also examines the safety and economic benefits of developing a
structure integrity management system.<br />
<br />
When a project has a
budget that seems as huge at the structure itself, the client,
engineering firm, and contractor must work together to achieve success.
Discussing the interface between these three main partners, this book
outlines strategies for checking the design and controlling a project in
all its phases.</div>

The balance between phenomenological analysis, physical conceptualization and mathematical formulation serve both as a unifying educational marker and as a methodological guide to the three parts of the work. The thermo-mechanical motion equations of a homogeneous single-phase fluid are established, from which flow models (perfect fluid, viscous) and motion classes (isovolume, barotropic, irrotational, etc.) are derived. Incompressible, potential flows and compressible flows, both in an isentropic evolution and shock, of an ideal inviscid fluid are addressed in the second part.

Design methods, site investigation, construction and analysis of the various improvement methods available are explained and discussed. Various regions may have different soils with geotechnical problems that differ from those faced in other regions. For example, in Southeast Asia, the common geotechnical problems are those associated with construction on soft clays and organic soils, while in the arid region of the Middle East, problems are generally associated with the desert soils. In the US, the problems are associated with organic soils, expansive and collapsing soils, and shale. Laterite and lateritic soils are especially problematic in Mexico. Similarly, in Europe, for example, the geotechnical problems are associated with loess (France), and organic soil (Germany). A detailed description of various methods of ground improvement has been provided in 11 chapters. Each chapter deals not only with a description of the method but also focuses on region-specific ground problems and suitable ground improvement techniques. Case studies have also been included. One general chapter is dedicated to site investigation, instrumentation, assessment and control. This book will be of value to students and professionals in the fields of civil and geotechnical engineering, as well as to soil scientists and engineering geologists.GeoEngineeringshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18188850017669472293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736739681027891019.post-7844739470720111652023-11-20T00:27:00.007+03:002023-11-20T00:27:29.255+03:00Applied Numerical Methods Using MATLAB<b><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0vo3lXBqlq2e7VzaLzaWNEEJHiXBZTv_IK2M715ULJHk-56i4lUhd_1wRVE0YoaLcs8sp8_CZbp52IvJdiuQHU_YP2IkXRWv0S4aWtUAYnhmMUMYqSXpGBrqin1TL-pJlGhIanab-Re3FFnEbNhwothrbOUtHkE9BgZzon25FrRAlyCcfNd3AxQApdxvl/s500/Dukkipati,%20Applied%20Numerical%20Methods%20Using%20MATLAB.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="388" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0vo3lXBqlq2e7VzaLzaWNEEJHiXBZTv_IK2M715ULJHk-56i4lUhd_1wRVE0YoaLcs8sp8_CZbp52IvJdiuQHU_YP2IkXRWv0S4aWtUAYnhmMUMYqSXpGBrqin1TL-pJlGhIanab-Re3FFnEbNhwothrbOUtHkE9BgZzon25FrRAlyCcfNd3AxQApdxvl/s320/Dukkipati,%20Applied%20Numerical%20Methods%20Using%20MATLAB.jpg" width="248" /></a></div>R.

In this edition, concepts and applications have been thoroughly revised. In particular, the ‘Initial Stress Approach’ has been extended to 2D problems in a more rigorous manner. Additional solved numerical examples have been added in several chapters. More importantly, the meaning of the results is explored through interpretation.<br /><br />The influence of initial stresses, pore water pressures and seismic forces has been explored not only on performance indicators such as the ‘Factor of Safety’ but also on the location of critical slip surfaces. In addition to these factors, it is shown that the chosen method of analysis may also have a significant influence on the location of the critical slip surface. Student exercises have been included in some chapters with a view to encouraging further study and research, and reference is often made to case studies of particular importance.<br /><br />The best features of the book have been retained with continued emphasis on both deterministic and probabilistic approaches for quantifying slope performance. The traditional performance indicator such as ‘Factor of Safety’ can be complemented by the calculation of the ‘Reliability Index’ and the ‘Probability of Failure’. This book focuses on research studies concerning slope behaviour, the occurrence of landslides and the use of alternative methods of analysis and interpretation. The importance of uncertainties in slope performance and, more broadly, in geotechnical engineering is emphasised.<br /><br />This book will be valuable to undergraduate and senior students of civil, mining and geological engineering as well as to academic teachers and instructors and also to researchers, practising geotechnical engineers and consultants.GeoEngineeringshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18188850017669472293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-736739681027891019.post-81525457515813569322023-10-22T21:21:00.001+03:002023-10-22T21:21:26.653+03:00Slope Stability and Reliability Analysis<b><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5Ksgj77B7J_pi314Ofo3m02fK1IWWO567M40jHqj1stbyQFx-IZ03UtmM4f6td_Sexv6X7T3PEMrdnbU2ywvDATPTG-BSVsoTUD4VX_NTQXIUj2XPhYejdxJSWgGehzDJipF4y6JN2XGPOlv1atNAqCHNBjsgLKq5nTEq1LBEvmF46k1lJIypo-XXmR5O/s1500/Cheng,%20Slope%20Stability%20and%20Reliability%20Analysis.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1500" data-original-width="1000" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5Ksgj77B7J_pi314Ofo3m02fK1IWWO567M40jHqj1stbyQFx-IZ03UtmM4f6td_Sexv6X7T3PEMrdnbU2ywvDATPTG-BSVsoTUD4VX_NTQXIUj2XPhYejdxJSWgGehzDJipF4y6JN2XGPOlv1atNAqCHNBjsgLKq5nTEq1LBEvmF46k1lJIypo-XXmR5O/s320/Cheng,%20Slope%20Stability%20and%20Reliability%20Analysis.jpg" width="213" /></a></div>Yung Ming Cheng ... 416 pages - Language: English - Publisher: Nova Science Publishers; (October, 2017) - ISBN-10: 1536129356 - ISBN-13: 978-1536129359.</b><br /><br />Slope stability is always a very important topic in many developed and highly congested cities, particularly for many cities in China where slope failures have killed many people with significant loss of properties. The author has also participated in different types of slope stability research and consultancy works in different countries, and has published two books entitled "Soil Slope stability analysis and stabilization new methods and insights" and "Frontier in civil engineering, vol.1, Stability analysis of geotechnical structures" which are well favoured by many students, engineers and researchers. The author also frequently receives email about the details of the more innovative slope stability analysis methods, stabilization and monitoring system, as well as the procedures in the numerical implementation of some of the stability analysis methods. In views of the various improvements in the theory of slope stability analysis over the years, the author would like to write a new book on slope stability analysis and slope reliability analysis, and the new materials will be useful to both students, engineers as well as researchers. <div><br /></div><div>In this book, different methods of slope stability analysis will be discussed in a broad sense. Following that, the limit equilibrium and finite element methods will be discussed in more details, as these two methods are the methods commonly used for practical works. Detailed procedures for limit equilibrium analysis will be provided to aid the students in learning, while the program SLOPE2000 will be introduced for the solution of more complicated problems. Some interesting engineering cases will be illustrated in this book. The author will also try to introduce the use of distinct element slope stability method, which is a technique still far from practical applications, but it does offer some insights which are not possible with the other methods</div>GeoEngineeringshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18188850017669472293noreply@blogger.com
