The book contains overviews of dispersion mechanisms, fluid substitution, and Vp-Vs relations. Useful empirical results on reservoir rocks and sediments, granular media, tables of mineral data, and an atlas of reservoir rock properties complete the text. This distillation of an otherwise scattered and eclectic mass of knowledge is presented in a form that can be immediately applied to solve real problems. Geophysics professionals, researchers and students as well as petroleum engineers, well log analysts, and environmental geoscientists will value The Rock Physics Handbook as a unique resource.
The Rock Physics Handbook conveniently brings together the theoretical and empirical relations that form the foundations of rock physics, with particular emphasis on seismic properties. It also includes commonly used models and relations for electrical and dielectric rock properties. Seventy-six articles concisely summarize a wide range of topics, including wave propagation, AVO-AVOZ, effective media, poroelasticity, pore fluid flow and diffusion.

Design, visualize, and document your ideas clearly and efficiently.
AutoCAD software, the world's leading customizable and extendable CAD application, lets you design, visualize, and document your ideas clearly and efficiently.
With AutoCAD 2009 3D CAD software from Autodesk, you'll move to new highs of productivity. New software features accelerate tasks, allow commands to be easily found, and help rapidly train new AutoCAD users.
AutoCAD is the ultimate CAD design software for working with 3D models.
Here are some key features of "AutoCAD":
Ribbon:
· With the ribbon interface, overall drafting productivity is increased as the number of steps to reach a command is decreased. The ribbon interface presents command options in a concise visual format, allowing you to quickly select commands based on the work you're doing.
· Moving between applications is now quick and intuitive. The ribbon is both customizable and expandable so that it can be optimized for each user and meet each company's standards.
ViewCube and SteeringWheels:
· The ViewCube is an interactive tool used to rotate and orient any solid or surface model in AutoCAD. Selecting a face, edge, or corner of the cube brings the model quickly to that predefined orientation.
· Clicking and holding the ViewCube allows the model to be freely roated in any direction. Since the cube is in a fixed location on the screen, it provides at-a-glance orientation. The ViewCube will be introduced in all Autodesk products as a common tool for working with 3D models.
· In addition to allowing quick access to the orbit command, the new SteeringWheels tool allows quick access to the pan, center, and zoom commands. The SteeringWheels is highly customizable so you can add walk through commands to help create and record a walk-through of your model.
Menu Browser:
· Reviewing and working with several files is no longer a tedious and time-consuming process. The new menu browser interface allows you to browse files and examine thumbnail images and provides detailed information about file size and file creator. Plus, you can organize recently used files by name, date, or title.
Action Recorder:
· The new action recorder saves time and increases productivity by automating repetitive tasks without requiring the skill or assistance of a professional CAD manager. Users can quickly record a task, add text messages and requests for input, then quickly select and play back recorded files.
Layer Dialog:
· The new layer dialog makes creating and editing layer properties faster and less prone to error. Changes are instantly reflected in the drawing as they are made in the dialog.
· The manipulation of the dialog box has been simplified, and columns in the dialog can be individually resized so the contents of that column or its title are not truncated. Individual columns can be fixed in place so that the rest of the columns can be scrolled through and referenced to a fixed column such as the layer name.
Quick Properties:
· The easily customizable quick properties menu increases productivity by reducing the steps to access properties information, ensuring that information presented is optimized for that particular user and project.
Quick View:
· The quick view feature uses thumbnails instead of file names, making opening the correct drawing file and layout faster and decreasing the time spent opening incorrect drawing files.
Requirements:
· Intel Pentium 4 processor or AMD Athlon, 2.2 GHz or greater (Intel or AMD Dual Core processor, 1.6 GHz or greater - recommended)
· For Microsoft Windows XP SP2:
· 1 GB RAM
· 750 MB free disk space for installation
· 1024x768 VGA with true color
· Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 (SP1 or higher)
· For Microsoft Windows Vista or 3D modeling:
· Intel Pentium 4 processor or AMD Athlon, 3.0 GHz or greater (Intel or AMD Dual Core processor, 2.0 GHz or greater - recommended)
· 2 GB RAM or greater
· 2 GB free hard disk available not including installation
· 1,280 x 1,024 32-bit color video display adapter (true color) 128 MB or greater, OpenGL, or Direct3D capable workstation class graphics card.
· For Windows Vista, a Direct3D capable workstation class graphics card with 128 MB or greater is required. Trial Version:

Good day everybody!!!
I am finding a book" ObjectARX Premier ":byBill Kramer
This book is The first book in the Autodesk Programmer's Series from Autodesk Press presents an overview of the ObjectARX programming environment and tool kit. Designed for all readers, management though programmers, this book provides a common understanding of how AutoCAD can be customized using the powerful tools provided by Autodesk.. This book discusses ObjectARX from a management perspective with minimal details about writing your first program except when a simple example is provided at the end. Details on building ObjectARX programs for AutoCAD 2000, 2000i, and 2002 as well as Release 14 are provided. The essential information is still applicable to AutoCAD 2004 ObjectARX programmers.
Thanks in advance

hi dear friends:
I need information please, I'm doing a thesis on plate bending (thin and thick), membrane (with normal rotations) and flat shell element (thin and thick), somebody will have the mathematical formulation of this element, I'm against time to really appreciate it might help.
