Numerical Simulations of Physical and Engineering Process is an edited book divided into two parts. Part I devoted to Physical Processes contains 14 chapters, whereas Part II titled Engineering Processes has 13 contributions. The book handles the recent research devoted to numerical simulations of physical and engineering systems. It can be treated as a bridge linking various numerical approaches of two closely inter-related branches of science, i.e. physics and engineering. Since the numerical simulations play a key role in both theoretical and application oriented research, professional reference books are highly needed by pure research scientists, applied mathematicians, engineers as well post-graduate students. In other words, it is expected that the book will serve as an effective tool in training the mentioned groups of researchers and beyond.

This book provides an introduction to HCI and usability aspects of Geographical Information Systems and Science. Its aim is to introduce the principles of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI); to discuss the special usability aspects of GIS which designers and developers need to take into account when developing such systems; and to offer a set of tried and tested frameworks, matrices and techniques that can be used within GIS projects.

Computational Methods And Experiments In Materials Characterisation II
Author: C. A. Brebbia (Author, Editor), A. A. Mammoli (Author, Editor) | Size: 13.9 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: WIT Press / Computational Mechanics | Year: 2005 | pages: 368 | ISBN: 1845640314 & 9781845640316
Product Description:
This volume contains most of the papers presented at the 12th International Conference on Computational Methods and Experimental Measurements (CMEM) held in Malta in 2005. These biannual conferences provide a forum to review the latest work on the interaction between computational methods and experimental measurements. New types of experiments allowing for more reliable interpretation of physical systems, result in a better virtual representation of reality. Experimental results are themselves increasingly dependent on specialised computer codes. It is only through the harmonious progressive development of the experimental and computational fields that engineering sciences will be able to progress. This volume contains over 80 papers grouped in the following sections. Computational and analytical methods; Experimental and computational analysis; Direct, indirect and in-situ measurements; Particle methods; Structural and stress analysis; Structural dynamics; Dynamics and vibrations; Electrical and electromagnetic applications; Bioengineering applications; Heat transfer; Thermal processes and Fluid flow.

Development of brownfield land can address shortfalls in the availability of land for housing and other buildings, but these sites present a range of problems that must be overcome in any successful development.
Land, Development and Design addresses all of the issues in the context of the reuse of urban land, providing a solid, readable overview of the principles and practice of the regeneration of brownfield sites. Divided into four parts, covering the development process and planning policies; site assessment, risk analysis and remediation of contaminated land; development issues and finally design issues, the principal focus of the book is on the reuse of urban land. It includes a full discussion of contaminated land, so that readers are aware of the issues and options available to resolve this problem.
Land, Development and Design has been extensively revised since its first edition and provides final year undergraduate and postgraduate students of both planning and surveying, as well as professional planners, surveyors and developers, a solid and readable overview of the principles and practice of regeneration of the built environment.

This handbook introduces engineers, project and construction managers, and senior technicians to a methodology for the management of quality on a process plant construction site.
The eleven chapters of the handbook define the roles and appellations of the parties involved in a project as well as outlining the fundamental strategic and contractual orientations to be decided. The ISO 9000 series of standards are examined within the context of the process plant construction site. A study is then made of the roles of the organizations involved and of the interfaces between them. Special attention is given to document and materiel control, followed by a review of the various monitoring and feedback systems to keep the project on track moving towards the ultimate goal of satisfactory construction completion leading to turnover. Model procedures are proposed, complete with forms attached, and a number of case studies are included to illustrate the practical application of the principles presented.
Process Plant Construction: a handbook for quality management is completed by appendices covering Civil Works & Buildings, Mechanical Equipment, HVAC, Welding, Structural Steelwork, Piping, Electrical Installation, Instrumentation & Control, Painting, and Thermal Insulation. Each appendix, aimed at the non-specialist, presents briefly for the discipline concerned the nature of the works likely to be met on site, evokes the parties involved and highlights quality issues to be addressed. Typical inspection and test programs are outlined.

Statics and Strength of Materials for Architecture and Building Construction
Author: Barry S. Onouye and Kevin Kane | Size: 37 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Prentice Hall | Year: 2011 | pages: 620 | ISBN: 013507925X
Statics and Strength of Materials for Architecture and Building Construction, Fourth Edition, offers students an accessible, visually oriented introduction to structural theory that doesn't rely on calculus. Instead, illustrations and examples of building frameworks and components enable students to better visualize the connection between theoretical concepts and the experiential nature of real buildings and materials. This new edition includes fully worked examples in each chapter, a companion website with extra practice problems, and expanded treatment of load tracing.
