Building Systems for Interior Designers is the first book to explain technical building systems and engineering issues in a clear and accessible way to interior designers. The technical knowledge and vocabulary presented here allow interior designers to communicate more effectively with architects, engineers, and contractors while collaborating on projects, leading to more accurate solutions for problems related to a broad range of other building considerations with an impact on interior design. Information on sustainable design is integrated throughout the book, making it a relevant tool for current and emerging trends in building design.
Written in a straightforward, nontechnical style that maintains depth and accuracy, this book is the first complete text applicable to interior design courses and provides thorough preparation for the NCIDQ exam. Engaging, clear illustrations support the text, which is accessible to those without a math or physics background.
Topics covered include:
Heating and air conditioning systems
Environmental issues
Water and waste
Thermal comfort
HVAC systems
Electricity
Lighting
Security and communications systems
Fire safety
Transportation systems
With numerous case examples illustrating how interior designers apply this material in the real world, Building Systems for Interior Designers is a valuable book for students, as well as a practical desktop reference for professionals.

Book Description:
Provides a short survey of recent advances in the mathematical modelling of the mechanical behavior of anisotropic solids under creep conditions, including principles, methods, and applications of tensor functions. Some examples for practical use are discussed, as well as experiments by the author to test the validity of the modelling. The monograph offers an overview of other experimental investigations in creep mechanics. Rules for specifying irreducible sets of tensor invariants, scalar coefficients in constitutive and evolutional equations, and tensorial interpolation methods are also explained. The second edition includes a CD-ROM containing the examples and algorithms in more detail and the appendant figures in color. The text has been re-examined and improved throughout.

Practical Hydraulic Systems: Operation and Troubleshooting for Engineers and Technicians
Practical Hydraulic Systems: Operation and Troubleshooting for Engineers and Technicians
Ravi Doddannavar, Andries Barnard, and Jayaraman Ganesh
Publisher: Newnes
ISBN 075066276X
Pages: 240 2005-04-11 PDF 13,6 MB
Whatever your hydraulic applications, Practical Hydraulic Systems: Operation & Troubleshooting For Engineers & Technicians will help you to increase your knowledge of the fundamentals, improve your maintenance programs and become an excellent troubleshooter of problems in this area.
Cutaways of all major components are included in the book to visually demonstrate the components' construction and operation. Developing an understanding of how it works leads to an understanding of how and why it fails. Multimedia views of the equipment are shown, to give as realistic a view of hydraulic systems as possible. The book is highly practical, comprehensive and interactive. It discusses Hydraulic Systems construction, design applications, operations, maintenance, and management issues and provides you with the most up-to-date information and Best Practice in dealing with the subject.

Lectures on Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Rick Salmon
Lectures on Geophysical Fluid Dynamics

Oxford University Press 1988
ISBN: 195108086
393 pages | PDF | 15 Mb
This introduction to topics in geophysical fluid dynamics covers the theory of large-scale ocean circulation, geostrophic turbulence, and Hamiltonian fluid dynamics.
This book offers an elementary introduction to several topics in theoretical geophysical fluid dynamics, including some topics not usually considered to fall under that heading and omitting many that are. The book is aimed at first-year graduate students in physical oceanography, but others should find it useful too.
There are no exercises, so this is more of a monograph than a textbook.
Contents
1 Fundamentals
2 Introduction to Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
3 Noninertial Theory of Ocean Circulation
4 Vorticity and Turbulence
5 Statistical Fluid Dynamics
6 Geostrophic Turbulence
7 Hamiltonian Fluid Dynamics

The innovation and refinement of the techniques and concepts of sequence stratigraphy has been one of the most exciting and profound developments in geology over the past thirty years. Seismic stratigraphy has now become one of the standard tools of the geoscientist, and there is a pressing need for an introductory text on sequence stratigraphy. This new book sets out to define and explain the concepts, principles and applications of this remarkably influential approach to the study of sedimentary strata. The authors take a rigorous objective stance in evaluating the techniques and interpretation of sequence stratigraphy - basing the text on an internal training course developed by British Petroleum (BP).
