1.About the Product
MODERN PHYSICS presents the latest discoveries in physics, and offers a contemporary and comprehensive approach with a strong emphasis on applications. In order to illustrate the process behind scientific advances and give students a historical perspective, the authors discuss the experiments that led to key discoveries covered in the text. A flexible organization allows you to select and teach topics in your preferred sequence without compromising your student's learning experience. A sound theoretical foundation in quantum theory is included to help physics majors succeed in their upper division courses.
2.About the Author Stephen T. Thornton
Stephen Thornton is Professor of Physics at the University of Virginia. He has over 130 research publications in experimental nuclear physics and has done research at several accelerator facilities in the United States and Europe. He has directed the research for 25 graduate students. He has held two U.S. Senior Fulbright-Hays Fellowships and a Max-Planck Fellowship to do research at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany on two occasions. He was the founding Director of the University of Virginia Institute of Nuclear and Particle Physics. He has published three college textbooks for physics: "Classical Dynamics" and "Modern Physics" (both published with Brooks Cole, a part of Cengage Learning), and "Physics for Scientists and Engineers." He is currently Director of the Master of Arts in Physics Education program at the University of Virginia, which has graduated more than 70 high school physics teachers. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and a member of several organizations including American Association of Physics Teachers, American Association for the Advancement of Science, National Science Teachers Association, Virginia Association of Science Teachers (past President), and the Virginia Math and Science Coalition. He has developed multiple courses for undergraduate students and high school physics teachers. Andrew Rex
Andrew Rex has been Professor of Physics at the University of Puget Sound since 1982. He frequently teaches the Modern Physics course, so he has a deep sense of student and instructor challenges. He is the author of several textbooks, including "Modern Physics," "Essential College Physics," and "Integrated Physics and Calculus." In addition to textbook writing, he studies foundations of the second law of thermodynamics, which has led to the publication of several papers and the widely acclaimed book, "Maxwell's Demon: Entropy, Information, Computing."

Author: A. E. Cardenas, J. M. Hanson, W. G. Corley, and E. Hognestad | Size: 1.5 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner | Publisher: PCA | Year: Proceedings Vol. 70, No. 3, March 1973, pages 221-230. | pages: 9 | ISBN: N.A.
The background and development of Section II. 16, Special Provisions for Walls, of the ACI
Building Code (ACI 318-71 ) is discussed.
These provisions were found to predict satisfactorily the strength of six high-rise and seven low-rise shearwalls tested at the laboratories of the Portland Cement Association, as well as the strength of wall specimens tested by other investigators.The results of the PCA experimental investigations are summarized in an Appendix. Thirteen rectangular shear walls were tested under combinations of lateral and axial loads. One of the specimens was subjected to ten cycles of load reversals.

Provides information and current best practice on the design and construction of reinforced concrete flat slabs in accordance with Eurocode 2 and the National Structural Concrete Specification. It is intended for use by designers (both of the permanent and temporary works) who already have basic understanding of structural behaviour. The scope includes flat slabs with orthogonal and irregular layouts of columns, plain soffits, waffle slabs, voided slabs and slabs with edge beams, although it should be noted that solid flat slabs with a flat soffit are the most popular. This Report does not cover the design of post-tensioned slabs, for which reference should be made to the Concrete Society Technical Report No. 43 April 2007 101 pages

Many users are confused by the term Software Problems.
To make everyone life easier my suggestion is to rename:
Software Problems
to
Software Installation Problems & Bugs
While observing users behavior I discovered that:
- many of them try to place in the appropriate section of the Software Problems thread their request for engineering help (how to use software). e.g. One doesn't know how to define a frame is sap2000 so he asks in CSI Problems thread.
- many don't read the warnings placed everywhere regarding the purpose of Software Problems section (BennyP has most of them everywhere)
- many get warnings and explanations but they somehow forget
If possible to rename I believe this change will make a difference.

These lecture notes are based on some lectures given in 1980. The object of the lectures was to construct a projective moduli space for stable curves of genus greater than or equal two using Mumford's geometric invariant theory.
