I have a question for all you guys that are either geeks or simply tech genius:
Background: I have 2 laptops for my personal use, both of them Sony Vaio with original licensed Wndows Vista + SP2; the difference is that one of them is 32 bits and the other one 64.
In both of them have both licensed software and other not so licensed... to say the least :) One of them (32bits) has TuneUp 2010 installed, and the one with 64 bits has the Sony software VAIOCare.
Problem: In both computers have installed AutoCAD 2010 with the Keygen available in this forum. Also, in both of them have installed AutoDesk Structural Detailing (ASD) 2010 and Revit Structure 2010 with the same keygen available through this forum.
But everytime I execute either TuneUp or VAIOcare for the system maintaining of both laptops, all of the 3 autodesk software are gone from the desk, the quick start menu and both ASD and REVIT are also gone from the programs menu. Sometimes I have been able to get back all of them by looking for them in explorer and selecting the .exe file for each one and all that... but sometimes both ASD and REVIT are just gone forever, even if I tried to install them again from scratch...
This is becoming really annoying, cause the mess this is creating in my pc (registry?) is so big that at least a couple of times I had hd to restore my hole system. (Last time I couldn´t print from AutoCad, so there was no other solution).
Help: I am running right now the laptp with OS-64 bits wich is only loaded with AutoCad 2010, and VAIOcare has just finished the tunning of th system and guess what? yep, AutoCad is gone from both my desk and quick start menu. I can go for not running any system maintenance/tunning software at all, but I think that is not the best solution as, as you start installing a lot of stuff in your pc, your system will end up being a mess still.
So the issue is: How can I avoid that, and also I don´t want to only have in this laptops installed AutoCad, but also ASD and REVIT. Any experience from any of you on this? Any advice?
Structural Geology of Rocks and Regions, 2nd ed by George Davis
When author George Davis conceptualized the cover illustration for the first edition of Structural Geology of Rocks and Regions, he wanted to emphasize that the human adventure of learning comes from doing; and that new insight springs from careful, detailed examination of field relationships, viewed at all scales from rocks to regions. He asked illustrator David Fisher to combine four photos into the single painting, you see here. The geologist is enveloped by challenging structural relationships of folded rocks in outcrop; the curvature of back and neck, torqued as eyes and brain move closer and closer to clipboard, is the classic language of geologic mapping. When George Davis and new co-author Steve Reynolds contemplated the cover illustration for the second edition of Structural Geology of Rocks and Regions, they asked: "Who else is in the picture?" Stepping back, and handing David Fisher a couple of additional photos, the scene suddenly changed. The original geologist who had been sitting on the outcrop recording data is now up and walking around, gathering new data. A second geologist has moved into the new foreground, mapping and sketching a system of small-scale imbricate faults. Again, the head is torqued to handle the requirements of fine description and careful mapping. Like so many structural geologists, she seems to thrive on visualization of three-dimensional relationships.

Product Description:
This first of a kind reference/handbook deals with nonlinear models and properties of material. In the study the behavior of materials' phenomena no unique laws exist. Therefore, researchers often turn to models to determine the properties of materials. This will be the first book to bring together such a comprehensive collection of these models.
The Handbook deals with all solid materials, and is organized first by phenomena. Most of the materials models presented in an applications-oriented fashion, less descriptive and more practitioner-geared, making it useful in the daily working activities of professionals.
The Handbook is divided into three volumes. Volume I, Deformation of Materials, introduces general methodologies in the art of modeling, in choosing materials, and in the "so-called" size effect. Chapters 2-5 deal respectively with elasticity and viscoelasticity, yield limit, plasticity, and visco-plasticity. Volume II, Failures in Materials, provides models on such concerns as continuous damage, cracking and fracture, and friction wear. Volume III, Multiphysics Behavior, deals with multiphysics coupled behaviors. Chapter's 10 and 11 are devoted to special classes of materials (composites, biomaterials, and geomaterials).
The different sections within each chapter describe one model each with its domain of validity, its background, its formulation, the identification of material parameters for as many materials as possible, and advice on how to implement or use the model.
The study of the behavior of materials, especially solids, is related to hundreds of areas in engineering design and control. Predicting how a material will perform under various conditions is essential to determining the optimal performance of machines and vehicles and the structural integrity of buildings, as well as safety issues. Such practical examples would be how various new materials, such as those used in new airplane hulls, react to heat or cold or sudden temperature changes, or how new building materials hold up under extreme earthquake conditions.
The Handbook of Materials Behavior Models:
Gathers together 117 models of behavior of materials written by the most eminent specialists in their field
Presents each model's domain of validity, a short background, its formulation, a methodology to identify the materials parameters, advise on how to use it in practical applications as well as extensive references
Covers all solid materials: metals, alloys, ceramics, polymers, composites, concrete, wood, rubber, geomaterials such as rocks, soils, sand, clay, biomaterials, etc
Concerns all engineering phenomena: elasticity, viscoelasticity, yield limit, plasticity, viscoplasticity, damage, fracture, friction, and wear

Waste Materials Used in Concrete Manufacturing (Building Materials Science Series)
By Satish Chandra
* Publisher: William Andrew
* Number Of Pages: 672
* Publication Date: 1997-01-14
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0815513933
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780815513933
Product Description:
The environmental aspects involved in the production and use of cement, concrete and other building materials are of growing importance. CO2 emissions are 0.8-1.3 ton/ton of cement production in dry process. SO2 emission is also very high, but is dependent upon the type of fuel used. Energy consumption is also very high at 100-150 KWT/ton of cement produced. It is costly to erect new cement plants. Substitution of waste materials will conserve dwindling resources, and will avoid the environmental and ecological damages caused by quarrying and exploitation of the raw materials for making cement. To some extent, it will help to solve the problem otherwise encountered in disposing of the wastes. Partial replacement of clinker or portland cement by slag, fly ash, silica fume and natural rock minerals illustrates these aspects. Partial replacement by natural materials that require little or no processing, such as pozzolans, calcined clays, etc., saves energy and decreases emission of gases. The output of waste materials suitable as cement replacement (slags, fly ashes, silica fumes, rice husk ash, etc.) is more than double that of cement production.
These waste materials can partly be used, or processed, to produce materials suitable as aggregates or fillers in concrete. These can also be used as clinker raw materials, or processed into cementing systems. New grinding and mixing technology will make the use of these secondary materials simpler. Developments in chemical admixtures: superplasticizers, air entraining agents, etc., help in controlling production techniques and, in achieving the desired properties in concrete.
Use of waste products is not only a partial solution to environmental and ecological problems; it significantly improves the microstructure, and consequently the durability properties of concrete, which are difficult to achieve by the use of pure portland cement. The aim is not only to make the cements and concrete less expensive, but to provide a blend of tailored properties of waste materials and portland cements suitable for specified purpose. This requires a better understanding of chemistry, and materials science.
There is an increasing demand for better understanding of material properties, as well as better control of the microstructure developing in the construction material, to increase durability. The combination of different binders and modifiers to produce cheaper and more durable building materials will solve to some extent the ecological and environmental problems.
