During the past few decades, deep-sea research benefited greatly from a number of newly developed, highly sophisticated exploration techniques and comprehensive datasets, thanks to the immense industrial interest in deep-sea sediments.
The book Deep-Sea Sediments focuses on the sedimentary processes operating within the various modern and ancient deep-sea environments. The individual chapters track the way of sedimentary particles from continental erosion or production in the marine realm, to transport into the deep sea, to final deposition on the sea floor. The sedimentary processes cover several types of sediment gravity flow and contour currents, pelagic settling and hemipelagic advection, planktic and benthic bioproductivity, and volcanoclastic sedimentation. In addition, the relationships between depositional environment and endobenthic organisms, as well as early diagenetic processes at and within the deep-sea floor are dealt with. Facies models of the wide range of depositional products hold the key for a process-related interpretation of ancient deposits. Changes in sea-water chemistry, major innovations in organism evolution, and changes in external controls on sedimentation and productivity are discussed in the context of overarching trends in ocean history.
Deep-sea sediments are not only of interest because of the numerous interacting processes involved in their formation, but they represent also a nearly inexhaustible archive of long-term climatic changes. Consequently, the book also includes an introduction to the climatic interpretation of the various proxies that reveal global changes during the Mesozoic greenhouse and Neogene icehouse conditions. In order to address the specific interest of the oil and gas industry in deep-water sediments, the investigation techniques that are applied in this context and the methods to predict both the occurrences and the characteristics of hydrocarbon reservoirs, are included as well.
* Examines the rapidly evolving field of deep-sea sedimentary research
* Focuses on sedimentary and diagenetic processes, with theory and case histories
* Covers the climate record, hydrocarbon reservoirs, and other topics of interest

1. Tittle Earthquake-resistant limit-state design for buildings
Author Hiroshi Akiyama
Publisher University of Tokyo Press, 1985
ISBN 0860083772, 9780860083771
2. Akiyama H,1988. Earthquake-resistant design based on the energy concept, proceedings of the 9th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering,Tokyo,Kyoto.
Rogawski's remarkable textbook was immediately acclaimed for balancing formal precision with a guiding conceptual focus that engages students while reinforcing the relevance of calculus to their lives and future studies. Precise formal proofs, vivid examples, colorful graphics, intuitive explanations, and extraordinary problem sets all work together for an introduction to the course that is engaging and enduring.
Now Rogawski's Calculus returns in a meticulously updated new edition, in a version designed specifically for AP courses. Rogawski's Calculus for AP*, Second Edition features a new coauthor, Ray Cannon, formerly AP Calculus Chief Reader for the College Board. Among other contributions, Dr. Cannon wrote this version's end-of-chapter multiple choice and Free Response Questions, giving students the opportunity to work the same style of problems they will see on the AP exam.

Thank you and your team for your endless efforts to make the CiviLEA alive. One of the ideas that would enhance our site, I think, is sorting the softwares by different fields (e.g. Strutural, Geotechnic, etc.). This kind of sorting would help the users as below:
1)review the new softwares easily. 2)find the required software easily
It should be noted that in current sorting, all the softwares (e.g. Geotechnical softwares) are not treated as structural engineering softwares. In other words, most of the softwares are categorized as "Other Civil Eng. Softwares" that would takes much time to check the new favorite softwares.
Please make this request happen if you think that it would enhance our site.
