Product Description:
Smart Buildings Systems for Architects, Owners and Builders is a practical guide and resource for architects, builders, engineers, facility managers, developers, contractors, and design consultants. The book covers the costs and benefits of smart buildings, and the basic design foundations, technology systems, and management systems encompassed within a smart building. Unlike other resources, Smart Buildings is organized to provide an overview of each of the technology systems in a building, and to indicate where each of these systems is in their migration to and utilization of the standard underpinnings of a smart building.
Written for any professional interested in designing or building smart Buildings systems, this book provides you with the fundamentals needed to select and utilize the most up to date technologies to serve your purpose. In this book, you'll find simple to follow illustrations and diagrams, detailed explanations of systems and how they work and their draw backs. Case studies are used to provide examples of systems and the common problems encountered during instillation. Some simple Repair and Trouble shooting tips are also included. After reading this book, builders, architects and owners will have a solid understanding of how these systems work which of these system is right for their project. Concise and easy to understand, the book will also provide a common language for ensure understanding across the board. Thereby, eliminating confusion and creating a common understanding among professionals.

Product Description:
Constitutive modeling is the mathematical description of how materials respond to various loadings. This is the most intensely researched field within solid mechanics because of its complexity and the importance of accurate constitutive models for practical engineering problems.
Topics covered include:
Elasticity - Plasticity theory - Creep theory - The nonlinear finite element method - Solution of nonlinear equilibrium equations - Integration of elastoplastic constitutive equations - The thermodynamic framework for constitutive modeling Thermoplasticity - Uniqueness and discontinuous bifurcations
More comprehensive in scope than competitive titles, with detailed discussion of thermodynamics and numerical methods.
Offers appropriate strategies for numerical solution, illustrated by discussion of specific models.
Demonstrates each topic in a complete and self-contained framework, with extensive referencing.

This is a software by me in visual basic 6.0. and its freeware and dedicated to civilea users...no restrictions from my side...it was developed for a specific task which was assigned to me but you can find many applications for this tool....
Often you want to print your drawings arranged like this!
PLANS
S-100
S-200
S-300
SECTIONS
S-101
S-102
S-103
etc.
If you place them under one folder, they will be sorted out like this
S-100
S-101
S-200
S-201
S-300
S-301
if you print like this, you will have to rearrange all the sheets after printing from plotter, imagine if you have to arrange a set of 300 sheets. so what?
So the problem is, you have an arranged drawing list in excel but drawing nos are such that they have problem in sorting out in a folder and you want to avoid wasting your time for rearranging after printing?
here is the solution. follow this!
1) select the main folder where your main pdf drawings are saved.
2) export your excel (sorted) drawing list to a text file with first line as the first drawing no and the last line as the last drawing no. and select this file with ".txt" extension.
***CAUTION***your drawing nos in drawing list must be same as saved in folder.
for example you have a text file containing drawing file nos as
S-100
S-200
S-300
etc so your orignal file names in save location should be
S-100.pdf
S-200.pdf
S-300.pdf
3)while "SORT FILES ONLY (NO PDF MERGE) is still selected, press the button "RENAME & MERGE"
***CAUTION***if any file is missing or opened by another user, it will ask you for the appropriate option.
NOW THERE ARISES ANOTHER PROBLEM, you have done well, you have arranged all your sheets but what if you want to print like 100 sheets on the plotter, so will you open each pdf one by one and press CTRL + P? or you will open PDF merger and merge all the sheets. but again you cannot merge even 50 sheets in one single file for plotter to print, you have to merge the pdf files maximum 10 to 12. so again its manual and time consuming. here you go!
1) starting instructions again from step2, uncheck the "SORT FILES ONLY (NO PDF MERGE)" and select no. of sets. for example if you have 300 drawings, you can have 30 sets, each including 10 drawings. so you will put 30 in the field. and the press the merge button.
Now these 30 files are ready to be sent to plotter in arranged manner one by one. Just imagine...without this software...u would first make 30 sets each of 10 drwaings in pdf and then after printing...so have to rearrange them one by one (300 sheets) ... so isnt it easy...

A complete 180p book, which was given by Prof. Broms after a presentation in 2002 to the participants. I do not think that it is published.

Part II: Mechanics of Materials has chapters on viscoelasticity, plasticity, principles of constitutive modelling, and thermodynamics. Part III presents Tensor Analysis and fundamental equations of Continuum Mechanics in curvilinear coordinates.

Author: K. L. Johnson
Paperback: 468 pages
Publisher: Cambridge University Press (August 28, 1987)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0521347963
ISBN-13: 978-0521347969
This book describes the stresses and deformations of solid bodies in contact with each other, along curved surfaces that touch initially at a point of contact or along a line. Examples are a railroad track and the wheels running on it, or a pair of meshed gear teeth. The book commences with the development of the theory since the problem was first described in 1882. There is also a discussion of the influence of friction and the topographical roughness of surfaces. An important feature of the book is the treatment of plastic and viscoelastic bodies, and an appreciable section of the book discusses bodies in sliding or rolling contact. The mathematical treatment assumes that users of the book are graduates in engineering; it is a book written by a distinguished engineer for other professionals and their graduate students.
