Covers current design techniques for both allowable stress and new load and resistance factor design (LRFD) approaches recommended by the forthcoming American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials draft specifications. Addresses the need for repair or replacement of 225,000 U.S. highway bridges as well as the need for 70,000 new bridges in the next 15 years.
Source Mechanisms of Earthquakes: Theory and Practice
311 pages - Publisher: Cambridge University Press; 1st edition (June 23, 2014)
Language: English - ISBN-10: 1107040272 - ISBN-13: 978-1107040274
This book presents an innovative new approach to studying source mechanisms of earthquakes, combining theory and observation in a unified methodology, with a key focus on the mechanics governing fault failures. It explains source mechanisms by building from fundamental concepts such as the equations of elasticity theory to more advanced problems including dislocation theory, kinematic models and fracture dynamics. The theory is presented first in student-friendly form using consistent notation throughout, and with full, detailed mathematical derivations that enable students to follow each step. Later chapters explain the widely-used practical modelling methods for source mechanism determination, linking clearly to the theoretical foundations, and highlighting the processing of digital seismological data. Providing a unique balance between application techniques and theory, this is an ideal guide for graduate students and researchers in seismology, tectonophysics, geodynamics and geomechanics, and a valuable practical resource for professionals working in seismic hazard assessment and seismic engineering.

A practical book on website performance for web developers, concentrating mainly on front-end performance improvement. It covers plenty of solid theory, but is also packed with useful, real world hints and tips that you can use on your sites today.
Topics covered include: User experience, design and performance + Measuring and monitoring performance + Setting up a page weight budget + Network and server improvements + Optimizing images and video + Optimizing scripts and third party content
The book also comes with a handy "cheat sheet" summarizing many of the key tips contained within the book.
Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering Volume: 2
The conference provided a forum to discuss research, conception, design, construction techniques, quality control, monitoring and operation applied to the many engineering works connected with earthquake geotechnical engineering. Provides a forum to discuss research, conception, design, construction techniques, quality control, monitoring and operation applied to the many engineering works connected with earthquake geotechnical engineering. Following topics are covered: Dynamic characterization of soils; Strong motions and site amplification; Soil-structure interaction and retaining structures ; Underground and buried structures; Liquefaction; Slopes and embankments; Codes, standards and safety evaluation; Recent earthquakes; Keynote lactures, theme lectures and discussion sessions. The proceedings are of extreme interest for consultants, researchers, practitioners, professors and students with different professional practices and backgrounds, but having in common the same interest in earthquake geotechnics, and reflect the present state-of-the-practice of earthquake geotechnical engineering.
