Bitcoin - The worlds fastest growing and most valuable cryptocurrency: This highly sought after digital currency has taken the world by surprise in the last few years. Rising over 35,000% in only the last four years, this digital currency shows no signs of stopping anytime soon. With a limited supply of bitcoin embedded into the very code that created the blockchain in which bitcoin stands on, there's no telling what the price can go to. This brings us to the basic principal of supply and demand - when supply goes down, demand goes up, and so does the price. Keep reading to learn more about the inter-workings of bitcoin and how to buy, sell, and invest in this booming cryptocurrency! In this book, you will learn: What cryptocurrencies are * What bitcoin is * How bitcoin was created * What blockhain is and how it works * The pros and cons of cryptocurrencies * The technology behind it all * How to determine mining profitability * Where to store it and how to keep it safe * Fun facts about digital currency and exchanges.

The new edition of this book presents the basic principles of classical and matrix structural analysis. It provides a smooth transition from the classical approaches that are based on physical behaviour of structures in terms of their deflected shapes to a formal treatment of a general class of structures by means of matrix formulation in order to understand how the structural problems can be formulated in order to make them suitable for computer programming.

Seismic Performance of Soil-Foundation-Structure Systems presents invited papers presented at the international workshop (University of Auckland, New Zealand, 21-22 November 2016). This international workshop brought together outstanding work in earthquake engineering that embraces a holistic consideration of soilfoundation-structure systems. For example, the diversity of papers in this volume is represented by contributions from the fields of shallow foundation in liquefiable soil, spatially distributed lifelines, bridges, clustered structures (see photo on front cover), sea floor seismic motion, multi-axial ground excitation, deep foundations, soil-foundation-structurefluid interaction, liquefaction-induced settlement and uplift with SFSI. A fundamental knowledge gap is manifested by the isolated manner geotechnical and structural engineers work. A holistic consideration of soil-foundation-structures systems is only possible if civil engineers work collaboratively to the mutual benefit of all disciplines. Another gap occurs by the retarded application of up-to-date research findings in engineering design practices. Seismic Performance of Soil-Foundation-Structure Systems is the outcome from the recognized need to close this gap, since it has been observed that a considerable delay exists between published research findings and application of the principles revealed by the research. Seismic Performance of Soil-Foundation-Structure Systems will be helpful in developing more understanding of the complex nature of responses these systems present under strong earthquakes, and will assist engineers in closing the gaps identified above.
