Book Description:
Many applications of finite element analysis (FEA) involve nonlinear problems. While engineers dealing with such applications may have access to powerful finite element codes and computers, they often lack the full understanding of the finite element method that nonlinear problems require. This text gives a comprehensive, unified presentation of FEA applied to coupled mechanical and thermal, static and dynamic, and linear and nonlinear responses of solids and structures. The inclusion of a concise review of the relevant mathematics and first-course material, sample problems, and exercises, makes this an ideal text for a second course in finite element methods.
Book Info
Text presents the principles of the finite-element method for application to the mechanical, thermal, and thermomechanical response- both static and dynamic- of linear and nonlinear solids. Designed for a second-level course or as a reference work. Basic familiarity with the finite-element method is assumed. Includes index and chapter exercises. DLC: Thermal stresses--Mathematical models.

Product Description:
This important textbook provides an introduction to the concepts of the newly developed extended finite element method (XFEM) for fracture analysis of structures, as well as for other related engineering applications.
One of the main advantages of the method is that it avoids any need for remeshing or geometric crack modelling in numerical simulation, while generating discontinuous fields along a crack and around its tip. The second major advantage of the method is that by a small increase in number of degrees of freedom, far more accurate solutions can be obtained. The method has recently been extended to nonlinear materials and other disciplines such as modelling contact and interface, simulation of inclusions and holes, moving and changing phase problems, and even to multiscale analyses.
The book is self contained, with summaries of both classical and modern computational techniques. The main chapters include a comprehensive range of numerical examples describing various features of XFEM.

Summary: Used it for 15 years as an aircraft structural engineer
Rating: 4
It was 15 years a go that I got this book as a part of a lecture by Dr. Broek. Over the years I have come across many books on this subject. I have to admit that this book is one of the best introductory material written on DTA. There are other books with probably additional data, however, what separates this book fom the rest, is Broek's ability to write in a coherent and easy to follow format.

Global Warming: Engineering Solutions
Ibrahim Dincer, Adnan Midilli, Arif Hepbasli, T. Hikmet Karakoc,
Springer | 2009 | ISBN: 1441910166 | 685 pages | PDF | 15,3 MB
Global Warming: Engineering Solutions goes beyond the discussion of what global warming is, and offers complete concrete solutions that can be used to help prevent global warming. Innovative engineering solutions are needed to reduce the effects of global warming. Discussed here are proposed engineering solutions for reducing global warming resulting from carbon dioxide pollution, poor energy and environment policies and emission pollution. Solutions discussed include but are not limited to: energy conversion technologies and their advantages, energy management and conservation, energy saving and energy security, renewable and sustainable energy technologies, emission reduction, sustainable development; pollution control and measures, policy development, global energy stability and sustainability.

Green Building: Guidebook for Sustainable Architecture
Green Building: Guidebook for Sustainable Architecture
Michael Bauer, Peter Mösle, Michael Schwarz,
Springer | 2009 | ISBN: 3642006345 | 210 pages | PDF | 23,2 MB
An important consideration for energy-efficient buildings is their primary energy requirements over the entire life cycle. How to determine this? What integrative factors influence the performance of a healthy and sustainable building? This, while it may be important for clients and architects to know, is frequently not very transparent.
This book has been written to assist with clarifying target criteria and expanding horizons when it comes to ecological buildings. It is meant as a handbook and source of reference for clients, architects, planners and building operators, to provide them with pertinent information about their design, construction and operation: how to do this in the most energy-efficient and economical manner?
Also, there is feedback and documentation about prominent buildings like the Hamburg Dockland or the Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg in Stuttgart. They provide excellent architectural examples for detailed construction and design solutions. Further, there are insightful interviews with architects and clients about many important buildings, which help turn this book into an integrated source of reference for sustainable architecture.
- A Guideline for Planning, Construction and Operation of sustainable Buildings
- A source of reference for clients, architects, planners and building operators
- Innovative architectural examples with sustainable concepts and design

I am receiving a lot of antivirus related personal messages todays. I hope these informations below will guide you to select or give up your antivirus software. All these softwares were installed and tested by me in the present/past. And all these comments are coming out from these experiences.
False detections while scanning cracked files or patchers are coming from packing. Especially packed files with Morphine and PECompact are the reason for this false detection. Not improved heuristics engines can not unpack these files and treat them as potential viruses (funny).
Alphabetical ascending order: Antivir: Slow scanning speed, lots of false detection, very bad user controls, moderate resource usage
Comment: It has real problems with its warning popups. Sometimes you are unable to close these popups.
AVG: Very slow scanning speed, lot of false detection, good user controls, lot of resource usage
Comment: I was happy with AVG even with its false detections but it's slowness was terrible.
F-Secure: I used an old version.
Comment: No comments but I dont suggest it.
Kaspersky: Fast scanning speed, very less false detection, good user controls, less resource usage
Comment: In Sap2000 analysis it was scanning all the output files on the fly and it was locking my system (may be for other analysis softwares too). This problem was on version 7 but it was enough for me to uninstall Kaspersky.
Nod32 (Eset): Very fast scanning speed, very less false detection, good user controls, very less resource usage
Comment: I have no problem with it except limited control on real-time scanning. I am already using it.
Symantec: Moderate scanning speed, less false detection, good user controls, moderate resource usage
Comment: It's detection was good but it was slowing down my system too much.
TrendMicro: I used an old version.
Comment: No comments but I dont suggest it.
I recommend Windows 7 users to stop all Windows Defender functions if they are using an antivirus software because running them simultaneously will slow down your system.
