Mathematical Analysis for Modeling provides you with better comprehension of how mathematics is developed for, and applies to, solving scientific and engineering problems. The author stresses developing mathematical descriptions of scientific and engineering situations, rather than rote memorization of proofs and formulas. Emphasis is placed on algorithms as solutions to problems, and on insight rather than on formal derivations. This book is for those who intend to conduct research in areas of science requiring the use and understanding of a substantial amount of mathematics, but who may not be well-versed in such applications.

Author: Joe F. Thompson, Bharat K. Soni, Nigel P. Weatherill (Editors) | Size: 27.17 MB | Format:DjVu | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: CRC-Press | Year: September 30, 1998 | pages: 1096 | ISBN: 0849326877, ISBN-13: 978-0849326875
Handbook of Grid Generation addresses the use of grids (meshes) in the numerical solutions of partial differential equations by finite elements, finite volume, finite differences, and boundary elements. Four parts divide the chapters: structured grids, unstructured girds, surface definition, and adaption/quality. An introduction to each section provides a roadmap through the material.
This handbook covers:
- Fundamental concepts and approaches
- Grid generation process
- Essential mathematical elements from tensor analysis and differential geometry, particularly relevant to curves and surfaces
- Cells of any shape - Cartesian, structured curvilinear coordinates, unstructured tetrahedra, unstructured hexahedra, or various combinations
- Separate grids overlaid on one another, communicating data through interpolation
- Moving boundaries and internal interfaces in the field
- Resolving gradients and controlling solution error
- Grid generation codes, both commercial and freeware, as well as representative and illustrative grid configurations. Handbook of Grid Generation contains 37 chapters as well as contributions from more than 100 experts from around the world, comprehensively evaluating this expanding field and providing a fundamental orientation for practitioners.

National Geographic - Can It Be Built S01E01 Circular Skyscraper (2010)
Size: 350 MB | Quality:HD-720 | Year:2010 | Format:avi | Video Codec:Xvid | Language: English
Abu Dhabi is famous for its extreme engineering, but now one project could surpass them all - the world's most inclined skyscraper, Capital Gate. Capital Gate is a tower that spirals out of the ground at 525 feet and tilts almost five times more than the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The tower will include a five-star hotel on the top 18 levels, an infinity pool, a restaurant hanging 300 feet above the ground and a helicopter pad on the roof.

The record-setting Matyiko Brothers race against time to transport a 900-ton building to a new location. The Matyiko brothers are a legendary MEGA MOVER family. Their company–Expert House Movers–entered the record books when they moved the historic Gem Theater in Detroit, the Schubert Theater in Minneapolis, and the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse.

An introduction to the Flux Core Arc Welding process, covering both self shielded and gas shielded flux cored welding wires. This video focuses on fundamental welder skills. Extremely close-up video of actual welds, with detailed explanations, demonstrate how the voltage and wire speed settings, electrode extension, gun angle, and travel speed affect penetration, the shape, and the size of the weld. Also included are weld joints, metal preparation, and joint fit-up.
Flux Core Arc Welding also provides a working knowledge of constant voltage power sources, wire feed units, and the unique characteristics of flux cored welding wires. Understanding the technical aspects of FCAW is an important part of setting up the equipment to provide the correct amount of weld, with good penetration and weld fusion.

Cape Town is building a brand-new stadium for the 2010 FIFA World Cup Games, but it is the last World Cup project to get started. Australian project manager Andy Fanton is struggling to keep it on schedule and make up for lost time. Green Point Stadium has to be finished in 12 months to be ready for its first practice games. The construction team will have a tough time getting there, with a largely inexperienced group of workers and a severe shortage of cranes. The stadium roof is the biggest challenge of all as it is made up of high-tension cables; if they are not perfectly tensioned, the roof will collapse.
