This comprehensive treatment of geotechnical engineering utilizes the S.I. System of Units to discuss and analyze soil mechanics and foundation engineering. Part One discusses the composition of soil terminology, compressibility and consolidation of soils and other technical properties and uses of soils. Part Two covers structures, pressures, stability, bearing capacity and foundations with reference to soil mechanics. Reference is made to relevant Indian Standards as well as to MKS Units. Each chapter includes large numbers of both practice and illustrative problems and questions with answers.

James Ambrose ... 432 pages - Publisher: Wiley; 6th edition (January, 2002) ... Language: English - ISBN-10: 0471400521 - ISBN-13: 978-0471400523 ...

Requiring little in the way of mathematic ability, but providing much information, this guide shows readers how they can understand and predict how a building and its materials will perform when exposed to a variety of external forces (mechanics). New information in this edition includes an analysis of indeterminate structures and the ultimate strength resistance of those structures. A greater emphasis is also placed on the fundamentals, providing professionals with simple concise solutions to common structural problems. Updated code and technology information is included, as are many more illustrations, and a wealth of problems and answers for self-study.

Andy H. Register ... 384 pages - Publisher: Chapman and Hall/CRC; (May, 2007) ...Language: English - ISBN-10: 158488911X - ISBN-13: 978-1584889113 ...
A Guide to MATLAB Object-Oriented Programming is the first book to deliver broad coverage of the documented and undocumented object-oriented features of MATLAB®. Unlike the typical approach of other resources, this guide explains why each feature is important, demonstrates how each feature is used, and promotes an understanding of the interactions between features. Assuming an intermediate level of MATLAB programming knowledge, the book not only concentrates on MATLAB coding techniques but also discusses topics critical to general software development. It introduces fundamentals first before integrating these concepts into example applications. In the first section, the book discusses eight basic functions: constructor, subsref, subsasgn, display, struct, fieldnames, get, and set. Building on the previous section, it explores inheritance topics and presents the Class Wizard, a powerful MATLAB class generation tool. The final section delves into advanced strategies, including containers, static variables, and function fronts. With more than 20 years of experience designing and implementing object-oriented software, the expert author has developed an accessible and comprehensive book that aids readers in creating effective object-oriented software using MATLAB.

Geotechnical Engineering Calculations Manual offers geotechnical, civil and structural engineers a concise, easy-to-understand approach the formulas and calculation methods used in of soil and geotechnical engineering. A one stop guide to the foundation design, pile foundation design, earth retaining structures, soil stabilization techniques and computer software, this book places calculations for almost all aspects of geotechnical engineering at your finger tips. In this book, theories is explained in a nutshell and then the calculation is presented and solved in an illustrated, step-by-step fashion. All calculations are provided in both fps and SI units. The manual includes topics such as shallow foundations, deep foundations, earth retaining structures, rock mechanics and tunnelling. In this book, the author's done all the heavy number-crunching for you, so you get instant, ready-to-apply data on activities such as: hard ground tunnelling, soft ground tunnelling, reinforced earth retaining walls, geotechnical aspects of wetland mitigation and geotechnical aspects of landfill design.

* * * Easy-to-understand approach the formulas and calculations + Covers calculations for foundation,earthworks and/or pavement subgrades + Provides common codes for working with computer software +  All calculations are provided in both US and SI units.

Ferdinand Beer, Jr. E. Russell Johnston, David F. Mazurek, Phillip J. Cornwell, E. R. Eisenberg ... 1376 pages - Publisher: McGraw-Hill; 9th edition (January, 2009) ... Language: English - ISBN-10: 0077275551 - ISBN-13: 978-0077275556.

Continuing in the spirit of its successful previous editions, the ninth edition of Beer, Johnston, Mazurek, and Cornwell's Vector Mechanics for Engineers provides conceptually accurate and thorough coverage together with a significant refreshment of the exercise sets and online delivery of homework problems to your students. Nearly forty percent of the problems in the text are changed from the previous edition. The Beer/Johnston textbooks introduced significant pedagogical innovations into engineering mechanics teaching. The consistent, accurate problem-solving methodology gives your students the best opportunity to learn statics and dynamics. At the same time, the careful presentation of content, unmatched levels of accuracy, and attention to detail have made these texts the standard for excellence.
