I know phpbb has a few mods for this...im sure mybb does to. I couldn't help but feel individuals cherished their memberships even more when we werent handing them out.
Having these hit and run offenders is quite annoying, and i also feel like the MAN is now lurking about now that registration is open again.

his book describes a family of state-of-the-art numerical and semi-analytical techniques for determining stress intensity factors for cracks; the quantities which determine and control the fatigue life of engineering components. Fatigue problems are dominated by behaviour of the crack when it is short, and in the neighbourhood of the source of nucleation, as this is where the majority of the life is used up. A knowledge of crack-tip stress intensity factors in this regime is paramount. The techniques described in this book are very efficient methods of determining stress intensity factors with great

Mechanics and Physics of Porous Solids addresses the mechanics and physics of deformable porous materials whose porous space is filled by one or several fluid mixtures interacting with the solid matrix. Coussy uses the language of thermodynamics to frame the discussion of this topic and bridge the gap between physicists and engineers, and organises the material in such a way that individual phases are explored, followed by coupled problems of increasing complexity. This structure allows the reader to build a solid understanding of the physical processes occurring in the fluids and then porous solids
Mechanics and Physics of Porous Solids offers a critical reference on the physics of multiphase porous materials - key reading for engineers and researchers in structural and material engineering, concrete, wood and materials science, rock and soil mechanics, mining and oil prospecting, biomechanics.

My name is George, I am an architect from Serbia. When I finished my faculty of architecture, I realized how wrong I was in a choice of my life profession. I should choose civil engineering instead. At the end the civil engineering is real science, real creative force, the architecture is pure bullshit, based on nothing (based on something some people call art). Well enough of these heart breaking stories about my profession, this is what I wanted to ask you:
First of all, this forum is the best Civil Engineering encyclopedia and community on the web. Keep it that way. I am spending all of my free time reading the articles from your forum. Amazingly interesting!
Few months ago, I bought books related to Civil Engineering. Statics and Mechanics (Structural Analysis), Soil Mechanics, Materials in Civil Engineering. And started studying from them. But now, I am especially interested in Space frames, so interested that I am thinking of starting to attend a Civil Engineering faculty from october this year.
I wanted to ask about the Space frame (space trusses, this is what I mean:

It is probably not the best one, maybe not in the first few ranking applications for structural analysis, but it is on serbian language, and it is a lot easier for me to work with it, than with SAP. Although I am going to try to learn using SAP definitively.
Ok, back to the story, for now I know how to make the structural analysis of the space frame truss (I even did a two directions curved roof from space frame truss), involving analysis from the load of the structure itself, temperature changes, and displacement of the backbones (supporters). I have also managed to design the structure further into steel.
So the calculation of these structures is not a great problem to me (at least this is what I think, maybe I am doing something wrong, but nevermind ). The stability and dynamics is something that I do not know nothing about. But I am willing to learn, I am going to boy a book about Dynamics.
The main thing why I am contacting you is like I said: the theoretical part of the methodology for structural analysis of space frame trusses. What are the methods? Are there few of those? What are the equations? Are there some books or e-books about this?
I downloaded the "Structural Engineering Handbook by Wai-Fah Chen" and this book has a section with "Space frame structures by Tien T. Lan". I found a part where he mentions the discrete method, continuum analogy method and matrix methods for the structural analysis. But where are the equations for these methods?

ISBN: 978-0-470-11421-6
Hardcover
432 pages
October 2007
Reflecting the latest developments in the green building movement, and updated to include coverage of LEED 2009,Sustainable Construction: Green Building Design and Delivery, Second Edition guides construction and design professionals through the process of developing commercial and institutional high-performance green buildings in today's marketplace.
In this revised edition, Charles Kibert delivers a detailed, and passionate, overview of the entire process of green building, covering the theory, history, state of the industry, and best practices in green building. Kibert uses not only the dominant LEED assessment system, but includes such newer ones as Green Globes and several noteworthy building assessment systems from other countries. Sections introduce the background of the green building movement and walk you through such aspects as the background of high-performance green building design, green-building assessment, the green building process, and ecological design.
Broad enough to cover the needs of faculty and students in architecture, engineering, landscape architecture, interior design, and construction management, yet focused enough to serve as a reference for building owners and buyers of construction services, Sustainable Construction is a comprehensive look at an emerging process that is environmentally sounds while making good economic sense.

How to Write and Illustrate a Scientific Paper
Author(s): Bjorn Gustavii
Publisher:
Edition: Second Edition
Date : 2008
Pages : 178
Format : PDF
Language : English
ISBN-10 : 052187890X
We, the Civil Engineers, like other fields experts need to often write scientific papers and illustrate our findings. Hope this book can be a good supplement in this regard.
This second edition of How to Write and Illustrate a Scientific Paper will help both first-time writers and more experienced authors, in all biological and medical disciplines, to present their results effectively. Whilst retaining the easy-to-read and well-structured approach of the previous edition, it has been broadened to include comprehensive advice on writing compilation theses for doctoral degrees, and a detailed description of preparing case reports.
Illustrations, particularly graphs, are discussed in detail, with poor examples redrawn for comparison. The reader is offered advice on how to present the paper, where and how to submit the manuscript, and finally, how to correct the proofs. Examples of both good and bad writing, selected from actual journal articles, illustrate the author's advice - which has been developed through his extensive teaching experience - in this accessible and informative guide.

I am trying to install the AutoCad2010 on Win 7.
During the installation a get the message "Please Insert CD1" and the installation process stops.
There is no CD1 because I am installing it from ISO-file mounted by PowerIso.
Also this problem happened to me last year while I was installing the AutoCad2008.
