Erland M. Schulson, Dartmouth College, New Hampshire
Paul Duval, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Paris
Hardback
ISBN: 9780521806206
Publication date: April 2009
416 pages
This is the first complete account of the physics of the creep and fracture of ice, and their interconnectivity. It investigates the deformation of low-pressure ice, which is fundamental to glaciers, polar ice sheets and the uppermost region of icy moons of the outer Solar System. The book discusses ice structure and its defects, and describes the relationship between structure and mechanical properties. It reviews observations and measurements, and then interprets them in terms of physical mechanisms. The book provides a road-map to future studies of ice mechanics, such as the behaviour of glaciers and ice sheets in relation to climate change and the dating of deep ice cores. It also highlights how this knowledge is transferable into an understanding of other crystalline materials. Written by experts in the field, it is ideal for graduate students, engineers and scientists in Earth and planetary science, and materials science.
Features
โข Critically reviews creep and fracture of ice from physical mechanism perspective, enabling reader to understand deformation of ice within conceptual framework of materials science
โข Includes applications to creep of glaciers and ice sheets and to fracture of floating ice covers and ice forces on structures, linking science to engineering, research to field work
โข Applies knowledge of ice to metals, rock and minerals, developing appreciation of physical interconnectedness of creep and fracture across a range of crystalline materials

by Charles Carter - MODERN STEEL CONSTRUCTION ARTICLES
The materials and products used in building design and construction are almost universally designated by reference to an appropriate ASTM specification. This simplifies the design and construction process because all characteristics of the product specified are defined by simple reference to an approved standard. However, with dozens of ASTM specifications applicable in steel building construction alone and several new ones now available, it can be challenging to keep the standard designations in contract documents current.
This article (Part One) is a summary of the common ASTM specifications used for structural members in building design and construction. Parts Two and Three will focus on plate and fastening products, respectively.

Analyzing Friction in the Design of Rubber Products
Robert Horigan Smith
ยฉ 2008 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC
ISBNโ13: 9780849381362 (Hardcover)
size of zip file:6.73 mb
407 pages
This book is intended to be an applied engineering handbook in which the presented concepts are illustrated in graphical form. The associated quantifying equations have been kept as simple as possible, restricted to those encountered in laboratory courses taken in the first two years of an undergraduate engineering education. Because most of the applicable productrelated rubber-friction-test results reported in the literature were obtained from tires and footwear outsoles, the book emphasizes these uses of rubber;
nevertheless, the mechanistic, intuitively consistent theory of rubber friction

Numerics of Unilateral Contacts and Friction: Modeling and Numerical Time Integration in Non-Smooth Dynamics
(Lecture Notes in Applied and Computational Mechanics) By Christian Studer
Publisher: Sp.rin.ger 2009
ISBN: 3642010997
182 Pages - PDF - 4 MB
This book is especially suited for people both in research and industry who are interested in the numerical simulation of mechanical systems with unilateral contacts and friction. Such systems can be found in various fields of technical application; consider for example contacts between wheels and ground in vehicle dynamics, walking machines, limit stops and friction in arbitrary kind of mechanisms or contacts between thousands of grains in granular mechanics. The book focuses mainly on rigid multibody systems dynamics with unilateral contacts and friction, however, the proposed non-smooth modeling approach is much more general and also well suited for non-rigid applications.
Four main topics are addressed:
* Non-smooth modeling of unilateral contacts and friction by set valued force laws,
* Mathematical evaluation of these laws using normal cone inclusions with associated projective equations,
* Numerical time-stepping integration methods for non-smooth systems,
* Implementation in a software code.
The book closes the gap between highly specialized mathematical literature and engineering application, gives an excellent overview on well established methods in non-smooth mechanics and opens new perspectives for the future development in this promising field of active research.

First published June 2000 as The Housing Concrete Handbook CCAA T53
ยฉ Cement Concrete & Aggregates Australia 2007
Design and layout Helen Rix Design Illustration TechMedia Publishing Pty Ltd
ISBN 9781877023200
This guide is written, primarily, as a reference guide for house builders and tradespeople working with concrete, mortar and render. TAFE students and their instructors will find it a helpful reference; and design professionals will find it informative. It updates and supersedes the earlier publication The Housing Concrete Handbook, June 2000.
It gives practical information about the use of concrete, mortar and render in the construction of houses and other small buildings, including floors, driveways, paths, and patios.
It covers the essential topics in enough detail to give house builders all they need to know about good quality concreting, and to alert them to poor practices.
More comprehensive technical information about the use of concrete in all forms of construction can be found in CCAA's Guide to Concrete Construction (T41). Further information on specific applications can be found in a number of publications produced by Cement Concrete & Aggregates Australia and generally available free on CCAA website http://www.concrete.net.au. Relevant ones applicable to the subject areas covered by this publication are listed in Appendix B.
