Plate Tectonics: Continental Drift and Mountain Building
Author: Frisch Wolfgang, Meschede Martin, Blakey Ronald C. | Size: zip 117 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2011 | pages: 217 | ISBN: 978-3-540-76503-5
* Presents many examples from North America and around the World
* Includes over 190 excellent full colour diagrams and maps
How are mountains formed? Why are there old and young mountains? Why do the shapes of South America and Africa fit so well together? Why is the Pacific surrounded by a ring of volcanoes and earthquake-prone areas while the edges of the Atlantic are relatively peaceful?
Frisch and Meschede and Blakey answer all these questions and more through the presentation and explanation of the geodynamic processes upon which the theory of continental drift is based and which have led to the concept of plate tectonics.

Industrial Wastewater Treatment
Author(s): Ng Wun Jern (National University of Singapore)
Publisher: mperial College Press
Date: 2006 Format: pdf
Language: English
ISBN10: 1860945805
Pages: 164
Size: 11.50 MB
This book adopts a “show and tell” approach to guiding readers in the area of industrial wastewater treatment and the facilities associated with such treatment. It assumes the reader is familiar with wastewater treatment theory but may be unfamiliar with the reasons why certain unit processes or equipment are included in practice, how these work, and why they fail therein. Industrial wastewaters are extremely varied and this complicates their treatment and discussion. Numerous tables showing industrial wastewater characteristics and photographs of facilities are provided so that the reader can better appreciate industrial wastewater treatment and its “culture” in Asia, and gain a degree of familiarity with the subject unachievable if only text descriptions were used. The book aims to provide a link between theory and practice. It does not only cover typical textbook material but also includes much information that would usually be accessible only to persons who have handled wastewaters and treatment facilities personally. The numerous examples provided have been drawn from the author's own field experience over two decades in Asia.

The science of water: Concepts and applications, 2nd edition
The science of water: Concepts and applications, 2nd edition
Author(s): Frank R.Spellman
Publisher: CRC
Date: 2008
Format: PDF
Language: English
ISBN10: 1420055445
Pages: 448
Size: 4.70 MB
Info:
Hailed on its first publication as a masterful account for both the general reader and student, The Science of Water continues to ask the same questions: water, water, water … water everywhere, right? In addition, it asks: the Earth’s supply of fi nite water resources can be increased constantly to meet growing demand, right? Despite these absurdities, a belief actually does prevail that the Earth’s fi nite water resources can be increased constantly to meet growing demand. History has demonstrated that consumption and waste increase in response to rising supply. However, the fact of the matter is that freshwater is a fi nite resource that can be increased only slightly through desalinization or some other practices, all at tremendous cost.

Concrete face rockfill dams are being used with greater frequency and to greater heights in the last decade. The developments leading to this progress are many and are addressed in the papers included in this book. Major features contributing to progress are the development and use of the smooth drum vibratory roller and design improvements in the cut-off to the foundation and concrete face slabs and joints. Papers on the performance of the existing modern dams, rockfill zoning, dam construction, and seismic analysis, and dams currently under design are included. Details are presented on dams constructed of gravel and low compressive strength rock and dams on poor foundations, as well as on dams of high compressive strength rockfill on excellent non-erodible foundations.
