This book was designed to show scientists and engineers how to use Mathematica to solve scientifically interesting problems in a variety of disciplines. The book covers all the major features of Mathematica—e.g. graphics programming, writing packages, and the new features in Mathematica 3.0. Exceptionally practical in approach, it draws application from "real-life" situations in physics, mathematics, and engineering.

An "anatomical" study of building systems integration with guidelines for practical applications
Through a systems approach to buildings, Integrated Buildings: The Systems Basis of Architecture details the practice of integration to bridge the gap between the design intentions and technical demands of building projects. Analytic methods are introduced that illustrate the value, benefit, and application of systems integration, as well as guidelines for selecting technical systems in the conceptual, schematic, and design development stages of projects.
Landmark structures such as Eero Saarinen's John Deere Headquarters, Renzo Piano's Kansai International Airport, Glenn Murcutt's Magney House, and Richard Rogers's Lloyd's of London headquarters are presented as part of an extensive collection of case studies organized into seven categories:
* Laboratories
* Offices
* Pavilions
* Green Architecture
* High Tech Architecture
* Airport Terminals
* Residential Architecture
Advanced material is provided on methods of integration, including an overview of integration topics, the systems basis of architecture, and the integration potential of various building systems. An expanded case study of Ibsen Nelsen's design for the Pacific Museum of Flight is used to demonstrate case study methods for tracing integration through any work of architecture.
Visually enhanced with more than 300 illustrations, diagrams, and photographs, Integrated Buildings: The Systems Basis of Architecture is a valuable reference guide for architecture and civil engineering students, as well as architects, engineers, and other professionals in the construction industry.

Fracture mechanics is an essential tool for engineers in a number of different engineering disciplines. For example, an engineer in a metals- or plastics-dependent industry might use fracture mechanics to evaluate and characterize materials, while another in aerospace or construction might use fracture mechanics-based methods for product design and service life-time estimation.
This balanced treatment, which covers both applied engineering and mathematical aspects of the topic, provides a much-needed multidisciplinary treatment of the field suitable for the many diverse applications of the subject. While texts on linear elastic fracture mechanics abound, no complete treatments of the complex topic of nonlinear fracture mechanics have been available in a textbook format - until now. Written by an author with extensive industry credentials as well as academic experience, Nonlinear Fracture Mechanics for Engineers examines nonlinear fracture mechanics and its applications in mechanics, materials testing, and life prediction of components. The book includes the first-ever complete examination of creep and creep-fatigue crack growth. Examples and problems reinforce the concepts presented. A complete chapter on applications and case studies involving nonlinear fracture mechanics completes this thorough evaluation of this dynamic field of study.

A Guide to Microsoft Excel 2007 for Scientists and Engineers
info:
Bernard Liengme, "Guide to Microsoft Excel 2007 for Scientists and Engineers"
Academic Press | 2008 | ISBN: 012374623X | 336 pages | PDF | 15,2 MB
Completely updated guide for scientists, engineers and students who want to use Microsoft Excel 2007 to its full potential.
Electronic spreadsheet analysis has become part of the everyday work of researchers in all areas of engineering and science. Microsoft Excel, as the industry standard spreadsheet, has a range of scientific functions that can be utilized for the modeling, analysis and presentation of quantitative data. This text provides a straightforward guide to using these functions of Microsoft Excel, guiding the reader from basic principles through to more complicated areas such as formulae, charts, curve-fitting, equation solving, integration, macros, statistical functions, and presenting quantitative data.
Key Features:
* Content written specifically for the requirements of science and engineering students and professionals working with Microsoft Excel, brought fully up to
date with the new Microsoft Office release of Excel 2007.
* Features of Excel 2007 are illustrated through a wide variety of examples based in technical contexts, demonstrating the use of the program for analysis
and presentation of experimental results.
* Updated with new examples, problem sets, and applications. New website with data sets, downloadable spreadsheets and other useful resources.

Problem Solving In Soil Mechanics (Paperback - Oct 2004)
Quote:* ISBN: 978-0-415-38392-9
* Binding: Paperback
* Published by: Taylor and Francis
* Publication Date: 1st October 2004
* Pages: 195
* Illustrations: 192 pp., 138 excercises with complete, explanatory solutions.
Problem Solving in Soil Mechanics is designed as a supplement to Soil Mechanics: Basic Concepts and Engineering Applications, but can be used as an independent text, since there is no specific reference to any equation or figure in the main book. This book is written for university students taking first-degree courses in civil engineering, environmental, and agricultural engineering. It aims to stimulate problem-solving learning and facilitate self-teaching. The structure of the book makes it possible to be used in two-, three-, and four-year undergraduate courses in soil mechanics. With new and advanced topics included, the book will also be a valuable resource for the practicing professional engineer.

Expansion Joints in Buildings: Technical Report No. 65
Info:
Author: Standing Committee on Structural Engineering of the Federal Construction Council, Building Research Advisory Board, Division of Engineering, National Research Council
Publication Year: 1974
ISBN: 0309022339
Length: 52 pages
Pdf: 2.5 Mb
Many factors affect the amount of temperature-induced movement that occurs in a building and the extent to which this movement can occur before serious damage develops or extensive maintenance is required. In some cases joints are being omitted where they are needed, creating a risk of structural failures or causing unnecessary operations and maintenance costs. In other cases, expansion joints are being used where they are not required, increasing the initial cost of construction and creating space utilization problems.
As of 1974, there were no nationally acceptable procedures for precise determination of the size and the location of expansion joints in buildings. Most designers and federal construction agencies individually adopted and developed guidelines based on experience and rough calculations leading to significant differences in the various guidelines used for locating and sizing expansion joints. In response to this complex problem, Expansion Joints in Buildings: Technical Report No. 65 provides federal agencies with practical procedures for evaluating the need for through-building expansion joints in structural framing systems. The report offers guidelines and criteria to standardize the practice of expansion joints in buildings and decrease problems associated with the misuse of expansions joints. Expansions Joints in Buildings: Technical Report No. 65 also makes notable recommendations concerning expansion, isolation, joints, and the manner in which they permit separate segments of the structural frame to expand and to contract in response to temperature fluctuations without adversely affecting the buildings structural integrity or serviceability.
