Stability of NonLinear Shells is a compilation of the author's work on analyzing the behaviour of spherical caps and related shell structures under various (axisymmetric) load systems. Differing from other texts on shells of revolution, it is one of the first attempts to deal with effects of multi-parameter load systems. This extension leads to the discovery of some new, hitherto unknown phenomena exhibited by these structures. In addition, the book presents a novel way to characterize properties of solutions of the governing equations for spherical caps - a classification anchored in a theory called reciprocal systems. The author has introduced a deformation map, a projection of multi-dimensional solutions to two-dimensional graphs, to enable analysts to gain insight into the physical meaning of the results obtained.
Numerous examples illustrate the concepts introduced. This book also comes to grips with many misconceptions existing in engineering literature about the question of the stability of solutions.

Geoenvironmental Engineering A M O Mohamed & H E Anatia
The new social and economic era calls for integration of ecology and economy in a system of cause and effect. The central element in this shift is sustainable development. Fundamental to the achievement of sustainable development is the requirement for environmentally responsible waste management and restoration of the environment. Solutions to the complex problems confronted by waste management and environmental restoration industry are currently handled by the geoenvironmental engineering profession that needs a good background in soil biology, chemistry, mechanics, mineralogy, and physics. In recognition of this need, this book summarizes relevant aspects of various soil physics, mineralogy, and chemistry as well as the chemistry of pollutants. This treatment will provide sufficient background to students and practicing engineers to enable them to think about how to approach waste management and environmental restoration.

Product Description:
Dynamic Soil-structure interaction is one of the major topics in earthquake engineering and soil dynamics since it is closely related to the safety evaluation of many important engineering projects, such as nuclear power plants, to resist earthquakes. In dealing with the analysis of dynamic soil-structure interactions, one of the most difficult tasks is the modeling of unbounded media. To solve this problem, many numerical methods and techniques have been developed.
This book summarizes the most recent developments and applications in the field of dynamic soil-structure interaction, both in China and Switzerland.
An excellent book for scientists and engineers in civil engineering, structural engineering, geotechnical engineering and earthquake engineering.

Shear Deformable Beams and Plates: Relationships with Classical Solutions
Most books on the theory and analysis of beams and plates deal with the classical (Euler-Bernoulli/Kirchoff) theories but few include shear deformation theories in detail. The classical beam/plate theory is not adequate in providing accurate bending, buckling, and vibration results when the thickness-to-length ratio of the beam/plate is relatively large. This is because the effect of transverse shear strains, neglected in the classical theory, becomes significant in deep beams and thick plates. This book illustrates how shear deformation theories provide accurate solutions compared to the classical theory.
Equations governing shear deformation theories are typically more complicated than those of the classical theory. Hence it is desirable to have exact relationships between solutions of the classical theory and shear deformation theories so that whenever classical theory solutions are available, the corresponding solutions of shear deformation theories can be readily obtained. Such relationships not only furnish benchmark solutions of shear deformation theories but also provide insight into the significance of shear deformation on the response. The relationships for beams and plates have been developed by many authors over the last several years. The goal of this monograph is to bring together these relationships for beams and plates in a single volume.
The book is divided into two parts. Following the introduction, Part 1 consists of Chapters 2 to 5 dealing with beams, and Part 2 consists of Chapters 6 to 13 covering plates. Problems are included at the end of each chapter to use, extend, and develop new relationships.

Many of us have access to software keys, USB or dongle. I was surfing around looking for a way to share a USB for one license between main machine and virtual machine on same computer (so that I can run several simulations simultaneously) when I came across USB and Dongle emulators. Anyone knows how to use them? We can have access to keys and create image from the key and then use the emulator as a key on several machines.
I think we need to have a section on how to use extract USB and Dongle images and how to use emulators. That will be very helpful to use for software that we cannot patch or software that we have access to their protection hardware.

Unit Converter Pro is a handy utility for students, teachers, and practitioners in engineering, physics,
sciences, and technical subjects. It can quickly convert more than 1500 different units in 76 categories.
It contains the most important conversion factors for length, area, volume, mass, force, pressure, density,
energy, power, temperature, dynamic viscosity, kinematic viscosity, and time units.
But it provides many high-specialized units and categories, too.
Don't pay attention to the X days of ...
Is shareware and works after two years, and if installed in the future date will write -425 days of 30 and continue working.

BIM (Building information management) is the future. We need to start working hard on preparing the members of this forum for this new Era by sharing tutorials and video and providing help for newbies. For structural engineers, one big issue is exchanging BIM with popular analysis software, we need to work on that.
Also, since we talked about CAD sections, we can have a section for BIM families and also how to create our own. Personally I faced problems detailing in Revit structural. I know it is doable but need to figure out how. Also BIM provide a good platform for programming. Similar to LISP in Auto cad, we can create out own routines that do common things like designing simple connections based on forces from analysis software. I have seen this routine long time ago but I was not able to find it again.
Many of use have access to software keys, USB or dongle. I was surfing around looking for a way to share a USB for one license between main machine and virtual machine on same computer (so that I can run several simulations simultaneously) when I came across USB and Dongle emulators.
