Nowadays and due to the utmost develpmnet that happened for electronic Books...
We can get tons of books and papers... millions of equations ...
Thanks god because these books are availbel....
But I hope the world have to change the methods of teaching....
We loss the basics and fundamentals with this huge informations...
We need to the mothers of books which provide us the basic knowledge and the way to think and creat a better life....
I look to the genius scientest Issac Newtons how he wrote a science in a simple rules
Force=massx accel. ...It is a simple and general rule...because he is genius
Same issue for Albert Inestian..Maxewll...
I look to civil engineering knowledge ... If I open any book for example dyanamic of structure... Any reader can find many thousand of complex equations ...spending a lot of time to know and the basic concepts hidden within tons of equations....
No thinking, No basics and Fundamentals, Just reading code articles and run softwares and getting results ....
Hoping some genius persons will change this way...

Highway materials, soils, and concretes
Author: Harold N. Atkins | Publisher: Prentice Hall, | Year: 2003 | pages: 383 | ISBN: 0130993042, 9780130993045
This clear, concise text provides a user-friendly introduction to the most current civil engineering and highway construction materials. It covers the essentials of highway construction technology without getting bogged down with complicated mathematics, excess theory, or difficult language. Topics covered in this book include soils, aggregates, pavement structure and base, asphalt pavements and materials, and Portland Cement Concrete, as well as Stone Matrix Asphalt, admixtures, and whitetopping. For civil engineers, those in highway construction, construction materials dealers, and soil mechanics.

Handbook on Liquefaction Remediation of Reclaimed Land
Author: Port and Harbour Institute, Ministry of Transport, Japan | Size: 52.67 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: Waterways Experiment Station, US Army Corps of Engineers, USA | Year: 1997 | pages: 322 | ISBN: 9054106530
Loose sandy deposits sometimes change into a liquid state during earthquakes. This is called liquefaction and poses a serious problem in waterfront areas. When the sandy deposits liquefy, structures built on those deposits are seriously affected; for example, heavy structures settle and light buried structures heave. Reliable remediation with respect to liquefaction is necessary in geotechnical engineering practice. This book presents methodologies for assessment of liquefaction potential and remedial measures to mitigate liquefaction for reclaimed land. These methodologies are based on continuous research and
decades of experience in design and construction of port facilities in Japan, where liquefaction often poses a serious problem in design and construction.

Beams at Serviceability Limit States,” PCI Journal, Nov.-Dec. 1982, pp. 66-85
PROCEEDINGS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON PREDICTION AND SIMULATION
METHODS FOR GEOHAZARD MITIGATION (IS-KYOTO2009), KYOTO, JAPAN, 25–27 MAY 2009
The themes of prediction and simulation methods for geohazard mitigation include:
1. Mechanisms of geohazards, namely, heavy rains, floods, typhoons, earthquakes, landslides, slope and snow slides, tsunamis, land subsidence, coastal erosion, etc.
2. Numerical and analytical simulation methods for geohazards, including conventional and advanced methods, FDM, FEM, Extended FEM, DEM, SPH and MPM.
3. Advanced constitutive modeling of geomaterials and numerical implementations and constitutive parameter determination using laboratory and field test results.
4. Thermo-hydro-mechanical instabilities, namely, large deformations, strain localization, progressive failure,liquefaction, ground water flow analysis, the rapid flow of complex geofluids such as mud flow, etc.
5. Monitoring and non-destructive investigative methods for geostructures during/after floods, earthquakes,heavy rains, etc. and design methods.
6. Evaluation of existing prediction methods, performance-based design methods aided by advanced numerical modeling, risk analysis, and the management of mitigation programs.
7. Case records of geohazards and mitigation projects.
A total of 89 papers on the above topics have been contributed from 18 countries. The members of the Organizing Committee and the International Advisory Committee reviewed 116 papers. The editors believe that all of the papers, presentations, and discussions during the symposium will open the door to new areas of research and engineering for the mitigation of geohazards.
