Braja M. Das, Khaled Sobhan - 819 pages - Publisher: CL Engineering; 9th edition (January, 2017) - Language: English.


Provide a valuable overview of soil properties and mechanics together with coverage of field practices and basic engineering procedures with Das and Sobhan, Principles of Geotechnical Engineering 9th Edition. This market-leading introduction to geotechnical engineering is ideal for the foundational course taken by most civil engineering students. This book provides the important background knowledge students need to support study in later design-oriented courses and in professional practice. The authors ensure a practical and application-oriented approach to the subject by incorporating a wealth of comprehensive discussions and detailed explanations. Find more figures and worked-out problems than any other book for the course to help ensure student understanding.

Jay Ameratunga, Nagaratnam Sivakugan, Braja M. Das - 400 pages - Language: English - Publisher: ‎ Springer; (December, 2015).

This book presents a one-stop reference to the empirical correlations used extensively in geotechnical engineering. Empirical correlations play a key role in geotechnical engineering designs and analysis. Laboratory and in situ testing of soils can add significant cost to a civil engineering project. By using appropriate empirical correlations, it is possible to derive many design parameters, thus limiting our reliance on these soil tests. The authors have decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, as professional engineers or researchers. The objective of this book is to present a critical evaluation of a wide range of empirical correlations reported in the literature, along with typical values of soil parameters, in the light of their experience and knowledge. This book will be a one-stop-shop for the practising professionals, geotechnical researchers and academics looking for specific correlations for estimating certain geotechnical parameters. The empirical correlations in the forms of equations and charts and typical values are collated from extensive literature review, and from the authors' database.

B.C. Punmia, Er. Ashok Kumar Jain, Arun Kumar Jain - 940 pages - Language: ‎English - Publisher: Laxmi; 17th Edition (December, 2005).


This book first published in 1970 and running into its Sixteenth Edition, has been thoroughly revised, updated and enlarged. The book, divided into Eight Parts, contains Thirty Four Chapters.

This book is intended to present currently accepted theories, design principles and practices of soil mechanics and foundation engineering. The book provides sufficient material ranging from simple to very complex for undergraduate and postgraduate courses. At the end of each chapter, latest problems from various central competitive examinations has been solved to enable the student to test his reading at different stages of his studies.

Kamal I. M. Al-Malah - 592 pages - Language: ‎English - Publisher: ‎Wiley; (October, 2023).


Machine and Deep Learning Using MATLAB introduces early career professionals to the power of MATLAB to explore machine and deep learning applications by explaining the relevant MATLAB tool or app and how it is used for a given method or a collection of methods. Its properties, in terms of input and output arguments, are explained, the limitations or applicability is indicated via an accompanied text or a table, and a complete running example is shown with all needed MATLAB command prompt code. The text also presents the results, in the form of figures or tables, in parallel with the given MATLAB code, and the MATLAB written code can be later used as a template for trying to solve new cases or datasets. Throughout, the text features worked examples in each chapter for self-study with an accompanying website providing solutions and coding samples. Highlighted notes draw the attention of the user to critical points or issues.

Readers will also find information on: Numeric data acquisition and analysis in the form of applying computational algorithms to predict the numeric data patterns (clustering or unsupervised learning) + Relationships between predictors and response variable (supervised), categorically sub-divided into classification (discrete response) and regression (continuous response) + Image acquisition and analysis in the form of applying one of neural networks, and estimating net accuracy, net loss, and/or RMSE for the successive training, validation, and testing steps + Retraining and creation for image labeling, object identification, regression classification, and text recognition. Machine and Deep Learning Using MATLAB is a useful and highly comprehensive resource on the subject for professionals, advanced students, and researchers who have some familiarity with MATLAB and are situated in engineering and scientific fields, who wish to gain mastery over the software and its numerous applications.
