Protection of Materials and Structures from the Space Environment (Space Technology Proceedings)
Protection of Materials and Structures from the Space Environment (Space Technology Proceedings)
Jacob I. Kleiman
Publisher: Wiley 2006
ISBN 1402042817
PDF 478 pages 10.3 MB
The goals of the ICPMSE-7 meeting, as in the past years, are to facilitate exchanges between members of the various engineering disciplines involved in development of space materials, including such aspects as environmental hazards of Low Earth Orbit (LEO), Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) and Deep Space, ground-based qualification, and in-flight experiments and lessons learned from operational vehicles.
The book continues to discuss topics started in the earlier publications and adds new data and results.
The proceedings cover a range of inter-disciplinary topics concerning the protection of materials and structures in space and discussing the effects of the aggressive LEO as well as the GEO and Deep Space environments on materials and structures and the ways to predict and reduce these effects of short and long-term space missions.
The book is targeting organizations and individuals involved with space material selction, their reliability and influence of space environmental effects on materials and structures.

Urban Drainage
Authors: David Butler and John W Davies
Publisher: Spon Press, London
Edition: Second
Year: 2004
ISBN 0-203-14969-6 Master e-book ISBN
Format: High Quality Digital PDF (English)
My Note: Those who are interested to work in Urban Drainage Modeling and Management of Urban Storm water and its relevant area, this book could be a good supplement for them.
Authors Note about this book:
In this book, we cover engineering and environmental aspects of the drainage of rainwater and wastewater from areas of human development. We present basic principles and engineering best practice. The principles are essentially universal but, in this book, are mainly illustrated by UK practice. We have also included introductions to current developments and recent research.
The book is primarily intended as a text for students on undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Civil or Environmental Engineering and researchers in related ?elds. We hope engineering aspects are treated with suf?cient rigour and thoroughness to be of value to practising engineers as well as students, though the book does not take the place of an engineering manual.
The basic principles of drainage include wider environmental issues, and these are of signi?cance not only to engineers, but to all with a serious interest in the urban environment, such as students, researchers and practitioners in environmental science, technology, policy and planning, geography and health studies. These wider issues are covered in particular parts of the book, deliberately written for a wide readership (indicated in the table opposite). The material makes up a signi?cant portion of the
book, and if these sections are read together, they should provide a coher ent and substantial insight into a fascinating and important environmental topic.
The book is divided into twenty-four chapters, with numerical examples throughout, and problems at the end of each chapter. Comprehensive reference lists that point the way to further, more detailed information, support the text. Our aim has been to produce a book that is both comprehensive and accessible, and to share our conviction with all our readers that urban drainage is a subject of extraordinary variety and interest.

Computer Models for Water Resources Planning and Management
Computer Models for Water Resources Planning and Management
Author: Ralph A Wurbs (Texas A & M University)
Type: IWR Report (But it is more than a Book)
Publishing Year: July, 1994
Format: PDF
ISBN:
This manual is compendium of water resources planning and management software, which could be helpful who are interested to work in the mathematical modeling works in water resources. A report like this (more than a book to me!!!!) would be of great interest and use to water managers and planners. The report is designed to help water managers and planners, who are not expert in modeling, and modeling experts in one area who are interested in surveying available models in another area.

Building and Construction Authority | 2001 | ISBN: 9810436092 | 332 pages | PDF | 51.5 MB
This Handbook aims to provide the engineering profession with a better understanding of the considerations and procedures involved in precast concrete design. Besides serving as a useful guide and source of information, the Handbook will be particularly valuable to engineers who are less familiar with precast concrete design and construction for buildings. The design methods and approaches in the Handbook are based on Singapore Standard on Code of Practice for Structural Use of Concrete - CP65 : 1999. The Handbook is developed largely based on our local experience with reference to relevant overseas practices.
Topics covered:
Structural concepts for precast concrete systems
Design of precast reinforced concrete components
Design of precast concrete connections
Illustrations on design of precast concrete buildings
Precast concrete assembly

MATLAB C++ Book illustrates the works of C/C++ programming and MATLAB. The book describes very detail how to use MATLAB built-in functions in C/C++ programming. If you are a C/C++ programmer and want to use the quality mathematical built-in functions in your C/C++ applications to solve mathematical problems in the C/C++ programming code, then this book is what you're looking for.
The features of this book are designed to handle four following projects:
Using MATLAB built-in math functions in C++ funtions.
Using the powerful MATLAB Graphics functions in C++ functions.
Calling MATLAB Workspace from C++ functions to perform particular tasks then transfer back results to C++ functions.
Writing a MEX-function for existing C/C++ functions then call it from MATLAB Workspace.
Generating Stand Alone Application from existing M-files to use in a target machine which doesn't have MATLAB software.
