Written and edited by a team of specialists at Max Fordham LLP, one of the UKs leading environmental and building services engineering consultancies, Environmental Design is the result of their extensive experience in designing environmentally-friendly buildings. The principles of their approach, which they have taught in numerous schools of architecture and engineering, are clearly presented here. This book is essential reading for architects, engineers, planners and students of these disciplines. The book starts with some basic scientific principles and environmental issues and then moves on to site planning, energy use, materials and buildings form. Natural ventilation systems, high-efficiency mechanical equipment and alternative energy sources are covered. State-of-the-art buildings of exceptional quality are incorporated throughout the text and illustrate the authors belief that environmentally responsible architecture can be visually exciting. The book concludes with a selection of detailed casestudies of award-winning projects including Beaufort Court, Kings Langley.

Cambridge University Press “A First Course in Continuum Mechanics"
Cambridge University Press | 2008-01-28 | ISBN: 0521886805 | 412 pages | PDF | 1,95 MB
A concise account of various classic theories of fluids and solids, this book is for courses in continuum mechanics for graduate students and advanced undergraduates. Thoroughly class-tested in courses at Stanford University and the University of Warwick, it is suitable for both applied mathematicians and engineers. The only prerequisites are an introductory undergraduate knowledge of basic linear algebra and differential equations. Unlike most existing works at this level, this book covers both isothermal and thermal theories. The theories are derived in a unified manner from the fundamental balance laws of continuum mechanics. Intended both for classroom use and for self-study, each chapter contains a wealth of exercises, with fully worked solutions to odd-numbered questions. A complete solutions manual is available to instructors upon request. Short bibliographies appear at the end of each chapter, pointing to material which underpins or expands upon the material discussed.

RELEASE NAME....: Springer.Remote.Sensing.With.Imaging.Radar.
By John A. Richards
Publisher: Springer
Number Of Pages: 361
Publication Date: 2009-10-01
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 3642020194
ISBN-13 / EAN: 978364202019
This book treats the technology of radar imaging for remote sensing applications in a manner suited to the mathematical background of most earth scientists. It assumes no prior knowledge of radar on the part of the reader; instead it commences with a development of the essential concepts of radar before progressing through to a detailed coverage of contemporary ideas such as polarimetry and interferometry.
Because the technology of radar imaging is potentially complex the first chapter provides a framework against which the rest of the book is set. Together, the first four chapters present the technical foundations for remote sensing with imaging radar. Scattering concepts are then covered so that the reader develops the knowledge necessary for interpreting radar data, itself the topic of a later chapter which draws together the current thinking in the analysis of radar imagery.
The treatment is based on the assumption that the radars of interest are, in general, multi-polarised. Polarisation synthesis and polarised interferometric SAR are among the topics covered, as are tomography and the various forms of interferometry. A full chapter is given to bistatic radar, which is now emerging as an imaging technology with enormous potential and flexibility in remote sensing. The book concludes with a summary of passive microwave imaging.
A set of appendices is included that provide supplementary material, among which is an overview of the rather complicated process of image formation with synthetic aperture radar, and summaries of some of the mathematical procedures important for a full appreciation of radar as a remote sensing technology.

Garold Oberlender, Garold Oberlender, "Project Management for Engineers and Construction"
McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math; 2 ed | 2000 | ISBN: 0070393605 | 384 pages | PDF | 7 MB
The purpose of this book is to present the principles and techniques of project management, beginning with the conceptual phase by the owner, through coordination of design and construction, to project completion.
Throughout this book the importance of management skills is emphasized to enable the user to develop his or her own style of project management. The focus is to apply project management at the beginning of a project, when it is first approved. Too often the formal organization to manage a project is not developed until the beginning of the construction phase. This book presents the information that must be assembled and managed during the development and engineering design phase to bring a project to successful completion by the owner

Large Deflection Inelastic Analysis of Space Trusses Using Generalized Displacement Control Method
info:
This paper presents the large deflection inelastic analysis of space truss structures including both geometric and material nonlinearities. The geometric nonlinearity is considered based on an updated Lagrangian formulation, while the material nonlinearity is accounted for by tracing a complete stress-strain relationship in the elastoplastic range. The nonlinear equilibrium equations are solved using an incremental-iterative scheme based on the generalized displacement control method. This algorithm can accurately trace the equilibrium path of nonlinear problems with multiple limit points and snap-back points. A computer program is developed to predict the inelastic post-buckling behavior of space trusses. Numerical results obtained from the developed program are compared with those reported in the literature to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed procedure.

Solar Energy: Renewable Energy and the Environment
info:
Robert Foster, James Witcher, Vaughn Nelson, "Solar Energy: Renewable Energy and the Environment"
CRC 2009 | ISBN-10: 1420075667 | 382 Pages | PDF | 6,7 MB
Drawing on the authors’ extensive research and project implementation around the globe, Solar Energy: Renewable Energy and the Environment covers solar energy resources, thermal and photovoltaic systems, and the economics involved in using solar energy. It provides background theory on solar energy as well as useful technical information for implementing solar energy applications.
The book details the strengths, weaknesses, and applications of solar power generation technologies. It discusses the design and implementation of often-overlooked solar technologies, such as solar water pumping, distillation, detoxification, refrigeration, and village power. The text also examines photovoltaic power and how it is best suited for remote-site applications with small to moderate power requirements. Examples, real-world case studies, and lessons learned from technical failures illustrate how to best implement solar energy projects.
The time for clean energy solutions is here. Only through energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies can modern civilization extricate itself from the gathering perfect energy storm. Focusing on one of the keys to lessen the potentially harmful impacts of the storm, this book discusses how to increase energy production from a clean energy source—the sun.
