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.

Guidelines for Earthquake Resistant Non-Engineered Construction (IAEE Manual)
The book starts with the presentation of the basic concepts that determine the performance of constructions when subjected to high intensity earthquakes, as well as with the sensitivity of that performance to the basic geometrical and mechanical properties of the systems affected. This information is later applied to the formulation of simplified design rules and to the presentation of practical construction procedures, both intended to prevent system collapse and to control the level of damage produced by seismic excitations. Emphasis is placed on basic principles and simple solutions that can be applied to different types of structural systems, representative of those ordinarily used in low-cost housing construction in different regions and countries in the world.

Earthquake Engineering Research Institute Field Guide
This Post-Earthquake Investigation Field Guide (hereafter called Field Guide) stresses
advance planning. It outlines procedures that enable EERI to dispatch investigation teams
quickly and effectively when the need arises. This advance planning is essential if EERI
is to use its resources to best advantage, avoid duplicating the efforts of others, and
ensure that all important aspects of destructive earthquakes are adequately studied.
