This book presents new guidelines for the control of cracking in massive reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. Understanding this behavior during construction allows engineers to ensure properties such as durability, reliability, and water- and air-tightness throughout a structure’s lifetime. Based on the findings of the French national CEOS.fr project, the authors extend existing engineering standards and codes to advance the measurement and prediction of cracking patterns.
Various behaviors of concrete under load are explored within the chapters of the book. These include cracking of ties, beams and in walls, and the simulation and evaluation of cracking, shrinkage and creep. The authors propose new engineering rules for crack width and space assessment of cracking patterns, and provide recommendations for measurement devices and protocols.
Intended as a reference for design and civil engineers working on construction projects, as well as to aid further work in the research community, applied examples are provided at the end of each chapter in the form of expanded measurement methods, calculations and commentary on models.

Author(s)/Editor(s): S. Lawrence Dingman | Size: 38 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Waveland Press, Inc. | Year: 2014 | pages: 643 | ISBN: 1478611189
For twenty years, Lawrence Dingman's well-written, comprehensive Physical Hydrology has set standards for balancing theoretical depth and breadth of applications. Rich in substance and written to meet the needs of future researchers and experts in the field, Dingman treats hydrology as a distinct geoscience that is continually expanding to deal with large-scale changes in land use and climate. The third edition provides a solid conceptual basis of the subject and introduces the quantitative relations involved in answering scientific and management questions about water resources. The text is organized around three principal themes: the basic concepts underlying the science of hydrology; the exchange of water and energy between the atmosphere and the earth's surface; and the land phase of the hydrologic cycle. Dingman supplies the basic physical principles necessary for developing a sound, instructive sense of the way in which water moves on and through the land; in addition, he describes the assumptions behind each analytical approach and identifies the limitations of each.
Outstanding features include: An examination of documented trends in global change of climatic and hydrologic quantities; statistical and measurement methods for the development and management of hydrologic simulation modeling; additional exercises that emphasize analyses using data sets obtained via the Internet; and Excel spreadsheets on the accompanying CD.
Editorial Reviews
Review
"An excellent tome for environmentalists, engineers, earth scientists, and humanists. The breadth, depth, and readability of the text make the material accessible to students at a variety of levels. A gourmet menu of subject matter." --John F. Hermance, Brown University
"This is a great book and the new edition is a great improvement over the last. I especially liked the boxes throughout that give meaningful examples and calculations." --Joshua Roundy, University of Kansas
"This certainly should be on the bookshelf of any student who plans for a career in hydrology. The book sets standards for balancing theoretical depth and breadth of applications and universally fits the needs of engineers, scientists, and water management specialists." --Vitaly Zlotnik, University of Nebraska

Geotechnical Finite Element Analysis provides the latest practical guidance and comprehensive explanations of applying finite element analysis (FEA) in geotechnical design – from planning and analysis, determining how the FEA relates to the design process and explaining the decisions that need to be made at each stage through to validation of results and reporting.
This highly illustrated guide expands on the practical benefits of FEA, such as the analysis of complex problems, overall increased productivity and revenue, and explains the complex theory behind the decisions that need to be made at each stage of a project.
Geotechnical Finite Element Analysis:
features as the first practical and internationally applicable guidebook in this subject area
includes detailed guidance on using FEA together with international design codes
clarifies the factors to consider when selecting from the various constitutive models
attests as a training aid, facilitated by complete worked examples
covers 160 competence statements from the COGAN Competency Tracker maintained by NAFEMS.
Geotechnical Finite Element Analysis aims to combine essential learning material in one place. As a practical guide, textbook, reference and training tool, it is aimed at practising civil, structural and geotechnical engineers, and those undergoing training in geotechnical FEA and performing geotechnical FEA in design.

Building Bridges: Connections and Challenges in Modern Approaches to Numerical Partial Differential Equations
Author(s)/Editor(s): Gabriel R. Barrenechea • Franco Brezzi • Andrea Cangiani • Emmanuil H. Georgoulis | Size: 7.3 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2016 | pages: 441 | ISBN: 9783319416380 ;9783319416403 (eBook)
This volume contains contributed survey papers from the main speakers at the LMS/EPSRC Symposium “Building bridges: connections and challenges in modern approaches to numerical partial differential equations”. This meeting took place in July 8-16, 2014, and its main purpose was to gather specialists in emerging areas of numerical PDEs, and explore the connections between the different approaches.
The type of contributions ranges from the theoretical foundations of these new techniques, to the applications of them, to new general frameworks and unified approaches that can cover one, or more than one, of these emerging techniques.

Yesterday I visited a homeless old-man (about 75 years old).
He had family and home few years ago but at now he missed all things that belong to him.
He sleep in street or park in very cold weather in Tehran, Iran.
He is true person. I belived it.
I know him and I`m very sorry to see homeless person like him. We decided to donate him and prepare a place for him for sleeping and living. As I said he is old-man. I request you, donate him If you can.
we found a room for him and owner of room give us 2-3 days time to give him money (he gave us discount for homeless person), so we do not have time. After 2-3 days he will rent his room to others.
This is our duty to help other people and this is not related any religious.
If you want to donate him press below button and donate:
DONATION CLOSED
we do not have time and if we delay for
I note that I know him and we grantee all donation will be spend for him,
we decided to assign a part of our activities for donating others.
if you want you can post here and say "I donated him".
Thanks for your donations, god bless you. our target is about 1500 USD. in fact CivilEA accepted to prepare 1500USD for him. I belived that our CivilEA users can do it even more than 1500 USD. We have not time we need more money for him, you`re kindly requested to donate him if you can.
