This book focuses on the applications of geophysics in addressing rock properties for petroleum geoscience, geotechnical, and geothermal applications. Sophisticated geophysical techniques deliver a fascinating collection of physical data-but they are essentially indirect: information on the velocity of seismic waves, electrical conductivity, nuclear spectra, etc. must be translated in terms of lithology, porosity, fracturing, fluid saturation, permeability, and geomechanical properties. Petrophysical data analysis is one of the key technologies for characterizing reservoirs and for prediction of relevant reservoir parameters using well-log and surface geophysical (seismic) data.
Individual chapters cover reservoir properties, petrophysical aspects of NMR, density, electrical, elastic, mechanical, nuclear, thermal, and magnetic rock properties. In a special chapter, selected relationships are presented as a foundation for combined interpretation.
Presenting the fundamentals of rock physics and combined interpretation techniques, the book may be used as a handbook as well as a textbook for the large community of geoscientists and reservoir engineers.
Presents all practical relevant properties of rock in one volume
Experimental and theoretical fundamentals in a systematic framework
Special focus on relationships between properties

This book tells the history of the many analogies that have been made between the evolution of organisms and the human production of artefacts, especially buildings. It examines the effects of these analogies on architectural and design theory and considers how recent biological thinking has relevance for design.
Architects and designers have looked to biology for inspiration since the early 19th century. They have sought not just to imitate the forms of plants and animals, but to find methods in design analogous to the processes of growth and evolution in nature.
This new revised edition of this classic work adds an extended Afterword covering recent developments such as the introduction of computer methods in design in the 1980s and ‘90s, which have made possible a new kind of ‘biomorphic’ architecture through ‘genetic algorithms’ and other programming techniques.

Report writing is a very neglected aspect of architectural practice, and seems to be a skill architects think they can 'pick up' along the way as they gain experience. Yet a sizeable part of an architect's work consists of preparing different kinds of reports. This book, therefore, provides samples of standard report formats to cover most of those needed in an architectural practice, and should help simply the typical architect's job.

ISO 22156:2004 applies to the use of bamboo structures, i.e. structures made of bamboo (round bamboo, split bamboo, glued laminated bamboo) or bamboo-based panels joined together with adhesives or mechanical fasteners.
ISO 22156:2004 is based on limit-state design, and on the performance of the structure. It is only concerned with the requirements for mechanical resistance, serviceability and durability of structures.

Since Mac computers started to offer or made available to have two operating system on their computer. A lot of people started to switch to Mac computers.
It has been a better operating system since the beginning but it was expensive, and there were no (almost none) softwares for technical people.
Searching the internet and their application store reveals that now Mac / Apple also have solid softwares for eveything else.
I was just wondering , what if Dear Admin and Moderetaors would explore this area to start / allow a section about this new trend. In the form I have found some posts for Mac already
Same thought goes with iPad, iPhone, smart phones etc.
I myself started to use a Mac, it is impressive ( Even Windows opearates faster and better in Mac environment
Universal Design presents detailed design guidance for architects in an easily referenced form. Covering both public buildings and private housing, it includes informative anthropometric data, along with illustrative examples of the planning of circulation spaces, sanitary facilities, car parking spaces and seating spaces for wheelchair users in cinemas and theatres. It is a valuable manual in enhancing understanding of the basic principles of 'universal design'.

In every age, science and technology have played an important role in advancing human civilization. From architecture to engineering, communication to transportation, humans have invented and developed extraordinary wonders. Architecture is a key element of every culture. From the earliest huts, humans have been building a variety of structures in which to live, work, and play. Sometimes we take our buildings for granted, but architecture impacts both the functionality and aesthetics of our world. Engineering and art come together in architects' designs to create some of the most amazing and beautiful structures that have ever existed. In this book, we'll explore seven wonders of architecture, from the dizzying height of the Eiffel Tower, to the love-inspired Taj Mahal, to the heated competition that resulted in two of New York's tallest buildings. Along the way, we'll see advancements in materials, technology, and construction techniques, and we'll learn the stories of how and why these architectural achievements became important to the world.
