Stephen Satchell ... 328 pages - Publisher: Academic Press; 1st edition (October, 2009) ... Language: English - ISBN-10: 0750633611 - ISBN-13: 978-0750633611 ...

The practical aspects of optimization rarely receive global, balanced examinations. Stephen Satchell’s nuanced assembly of technical presentations about optimization packages (by their developers) and about current optimization practice and theory (by academic researchers) makes available highly practical solutions to our post-liquidity bubble environment. The commercial chapters emphasize algorithmic elements without becoming sales pitches, and the academic chapters create context and explore development opportunities. Together they offer an incisive perspective that stretches toward new products, new techniques, and new answers in quantitative finance. Presents a unique "confrontation" between software engineers and academics: * Highlights a global view of common optimization issues. * Emphasizes the research and market challenges of optimization software while avoiding sales pitches. * Accentuates real applications, not laboratory results.

William D. Callister Jr.,‎ David G. Rethwisch ... 984 pages - Publisher: Wiley; 9th edition (December, 2013) ... Language: English - ISBN-10: 1118324579 - ISBN-13: 978-1118324578 ...

Building on the extraordinary success of eight best-selling editions, Callister's new Ninth Edition of Materials Science and Engineering continues to promote student understanding of the three primary types of materials (metals, ceramics, and polymers) and composites, as well as the relationships that exist between the structural elements of materials and their properties. This edition is supported by a redesigned version of Virtual Materials Science and Engineering (VMSE). This resource contains interactive simulations and animations that enhance the learning of key concepts in materials science and engineering (e.g., crystal structures, crystallographic planes/directions, dislocations) and, in addition, a comprehensive materials property database.

William F. Riley,‎ Leroy D. Sturges,‎ Don H. Morris ... 720 pages - Publisher: Wiley; 6th edition (February, 2006) - Language: English - ISBN-10: 047170511X - ISBN-13: 978-0471705116 ...

This leading book in the field focuses on what materials specifications and design are most effective based on function and actual load-carrying capacity. Written in an accessible style, it emphasizes the basics, such as design, equilibrium, material behavior and geometry of deformation in simple structures or machines. Readers will also find a thorough treatment of stress, strain, and the stress-strain relationships. These topics are covered before the customary treatments of axial loading, torsion, flexure, and buckling.

Nasser Khalili, Adrian Russell ... 1872 pages - Publisher: CRC Press; (June, 2014) ... Language: English - ISBN-10: 1138001503 - ISBN-13: 978-1138001503 ...

Unsaturated Soils: Research and Applications contains 247 papers presented at 6th International Conference on Unsaturated Soils (UNSAT2014, Sydney, Australia, 2-4 July 2014). The two volumes provide an overview of recent experimental and theoretical advances in a wide variety of topics related to unsaturated soil mechanics: Unsaturated Soil Behavior * Experimentation * Modelling * Case Histories * Geotechnical Engineering Problems * Multidisciplinary and New Areas. Unsaturated Soils: Research and Applications presents a wealth of information, and is of interest to researchers and practising engineers in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering.

Uwe Starossek ... 168 pages - Publisher: Thomas Telford Publishing; (January, 2009) ... Language: English - ISBN-10: 0727736108 - ISBN-13: 978-0727736109 ...

This book gives engineers the practical, systematic framework they need to anticipate the risk of progressive collapse and apply this knowledge to design and assessment procedures. This will be an invaluable guide for structural engineers at all levels as well as many students and lecturers on civil and structural engineering courses.

Akbar R. Tamboli ... 416 pages - Publisher: McGraw-Hill; 1st edition (May, 2014) ... Language: English - ISBN-10: 0071818715 - ISBN-13: 978-0071818711 ...

Featuring contributions from 30 global experts involved in the planning and design of the structures covered in this book, Tall and Supertall Buildings describes the technical developments and special design features used for these landmark buildings: Sears Tower * Taipei 101 * Burj Khalifa * Petronas Towers * Shanghai Tower * Kingdom Tower.  This authoritative resource addresses HVAC systems, sustainability, geotechnical and foundation engineering, wind engineering, and more. Construction photographs and detailed diagrams are included throughout. This is the definitive guide for engineers, architects, project managers, building inspectors, and anyone involved in the planning and design of tall and supertall buildings.
