As global society confronts the challenges of diminishing resources, ecological degradation, and climate change, engineers play a crucial role designing and building technologies and products that fulfil our needs for utility and sustainability.
The Handbook of Sustainable Engineering equips readers with the context and the best practices derived from both academic research and practical examples of successful implementations of sustainable technical solutions. The handbook’s content revolves around the two themes, new ways of thinking and new business models, including sustainable production, products, service systems and consumption while addressing key assets based on new materials, optimized resource management, and new energy sources. Contributions reflect a focus on state-of-the art insights into employing smart materials, recycling e-waste, water utilization, solar cells, product lifecycles, transportation and reverse manufacturing. Supportive of this, underlying issues such as engineering education, consumer behaviour and the regulatory climate complete the handbook’s comprehensive treatment of the problems and most promising solutions.
"The efficient utilization of energy, sustainable use of natural resources, and large-scale adoption of sustainable technologies is the key to a sustainable future. The Handbook of Sustainable Engineering provides tools that will help us achieve these goals".
Nobel Prize Winner Dr. R.K. Pauchauri, Chairman, UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

Author: Phillip L. Gould | Size: 13 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Springer | Year: reprint of the original 1st ed. 1988 edition (September 21, 2011) | pages: 501 | ISBN: 146128340X
The study ofthree-dimensional continua has been a traditional part of graduate education in solid mechanics for some time. With rational simplifications to the three-dimensional theory of elasticity, the engineering theories of medium-thin plates and of thin shells may be derived and applied to a large class of engi neering structures distinguished by a characteristically small dimension in one direction. Often, these theories are developed somewhat independently due to their distinctive geometrical and load-resistance characteristics. On the other hand, the two systems share a common basis and might be unified under the classification of Surface Structures after the German term Fliichentragwerke. This common basis is fully exploited in this book. A substantial portion of many traditional approaches to this subject has been devoted to constructing classical and approximate solutions to the governing equations of the system in order to proceed with applications. Within the context of analytical, as opposed to numerical, approaches, the limited general ity of many such solutions has been a formidable obstacle to applications involving complex geometry, material properties, and/or loading. It is now relatively routine to obtain computer-based solutions to quite complicated situations. However, the choice of the proper problem to solve through the selection of the mathematical model remains a human rather than a machine task and requires a basis in the theory of the subject.

CAD\CAM Water Distribution Modeling and Management. Model hydraulics, operations, and water quality with ease using your favorite environment. Utilities, municipalities, and engineering firms trust WaterCAD as a reliable, resource-saving, decision-support tool for their water infrastructure.
From fire flow, flushing, criticality, and constituent concentration analyses, to energy cost management and pump modeling, WaterCAD helps engineers and utilities analyze, design, and optimize water distribution systems.
WaterCAD is a robust and easy-to-use water distribution modeling program that can be customized with additional modeling platforms:
Interoperability
WaterCAD (WaterCAD Stand-Alone license) can run in two interoperable platforms, letting you choose the environment that best fits your skills and modeling requirements.
1. Windows stand-alone: Enjoy unparalleled ease-of-use and versatility, multiple background support, advanced thematic mapping, powerful element symbology features, and conversion utilities from CAD, GIS, and databases.
2. MicroStation: The ability to run WaterCAD from within MicroStation is included at no additional cost. Seamlessly use every WaterCAD feature within MicroStation's powerful engineering design and geospatial environment.
AutoCAD users: Users of WaterCAD for AutoCAD can run WaterCAD from within AutoCAD (as well as MicroStation or stand-alone), so they can directly leverage AutoCAD's drafting tools with their WaterCAD models.

This Sixth Edition of Calculus continues the effort to promote courses in which understanding and computation reinforce each other. Calculus: Single and Multivariable 6th Edition reflects the many voices of users at research universities, four-year colleges, community colleges, and secondary schools. This new edition has been streamlined to create a flexible approach to both theory and modeling. For instructors wishing to emphasize the connection between calculus and other fields, the text includes a variety of problems and examples from the physical, health, and biological sciences, engineering and economics. In addition, new problems on the mathematics of sustainability and new case studies on calculus in medicine by David E. Sloane, MD have been added.
