mozilla firefox 4 Will Become The Super Duper Fastest Browser
as the developer is planning to release a new version of Firefox 4. Firefox 4 is claimed to be a fast browser and is compatible with the HTML 5 standard.Fast: making Firefox super-duper fast
Powerful: enabling new open, standard Web technologies (HTML5 and beyond!),
Empowering: putting users in full control of their browser, data, and Web experience.
Views Firefox 4 is slightly different with the previous version. Menu bar (the menu consists of File, Edit, View, etc.) “replaced” with an App Button, so that will add a reading area in your browser. Besides the Stop button, Refresh and Go be a single button.

Slab and Wall Form Design Spreadsheets according to ACI Code
William C. Epstein, professor of construction management at California Polytechnic State University, has developed interactive spreadsheets for design of formwork components following procedures outlined in Chapter 6 of ACI SP-4, “Formwork for Concrete,” 7th edition. One spreadsheet deals with forms for elevated slabs, and the other with wall forms. These spreadsheets were created as a teaching and learning tool, and are in no way intended to supplant the qualified engineer or designer to whom formwork planning should be entrusted.

BS 5400-2:2006 Steel, concrete and composite bridges. Specification for loads.
Since its publication over 25 years ago, there have been many technical and social developments that have required the revision of the BS 5400, the standard for bridges. All parts are being reviewed; revised or amended editions of other parts are expected next year.
The revisions introduce technical changes to take account of present construction requirements, following a full review of the standards.
Further information regarding this standard can be found on page 7 of the Construction Materials brochure, which also contains other relevant products which may be of interest to you.
BS 5400-2:2006 replaces BS 5400-2:1978, which will be withdrawn on publication.

Fluid Dynamics and Transport of Droplets and Sprays
Fluid Dynamics and Transport of Droplets and Sprays
William A. Sirignano,
Cambridge University Press | 2005 | ISBN: 0521019257, 0511529562 | 332 pages | PDF | 7 MB
The study of droplets and sprays has developed rapidly over the past two decades because of their many important applications, from automobile engine combustion to drug aerosols. This book addresses the complex subject of the interactions of droplets and sprays. It describes the behavior of an individual droplet in a spray, the behavior of a spray, and the critical relationships between the two. Along with a strong theoretical foundation, the book presents results in a way that will be useful for engineering practice, with summaries of key formulae and examples of various spray computations. Among topics covered are transient heating (or cooling) and vaporization (or condensation), multicomponent liquid droplet vaporization, near critical and supercritical ambient conditions, interaction of droplets with turbulent or vortical structures, distortion of the spherical shape and secondary atomization of the droplets, and computational issues. As an authoritative review of the science and technology of droplets and sprays, this book will be useful for graduate students, researchers, and practicing engineers.

Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures
Theory, Practice and Software
Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures: Theory, Practice and Software
Ernest Hinton, Johann Sienz, Mustafa Özakca,
Springer | 2003 | ISBN: 1852334215 | 496 pages | Djvu | 8 MB
Shell-type structures can be found almost everywhere. They appear in natural forms but also as man-made, load-bearing components in diverse engineering systems. Mankind has struggled to replicate nature's optimization of such structures but using modern computational tools it is now possible to analyse, design and optimise them systematically.
Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures features: - comprehensive coverage of the background theory of shell structures; - development and implementation of reliable, creative and efficient computational tools for static and free-vibration analysis and structural optimization of variable-thickness shells and folded-plate structures; - integrated computer-aided curve and surface modelling tools and automatic mesh generation, structural analysis sensitivity analysis and mathematical programming methods; - CD-ROM containing well-documented Fortran software for these techniques using finite element and finite strip simulations which can be readily adapted by the reader for the solution of practical problems or for use within a teaching or research environment.
Written by leading experts in finite element and finite strip methods, Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures will be of great interest to researchers in structural mechanics and in automotive, aerospace and civil engineering as well as to designers from all fields using shell structures for their strength-per-unit-mass advantages.

Numerical Analysis of Pile Behavior under Lateral Loads in Layered ElasticPlastic Soils
This paper presents results from a ¯nite element study on the behavior of a single pile in elastic plastic soils. Pile behavior in uniform sand and clay soils as well as cases with and layer in clay deposit and clay layer in sand deposit were analyzed and cross compared to investigate layering erects. Finite element results were used to generate p ¡ y curves and then compared with those obtained from methods commonly used in practice.
