Blast Protection of Buildings provides minimum requirements for planning, design, construction, and assessment of new and existing buildings subject to the effects of accidental or malicious explosions. The Standard includes principles for establishing appropriate threat parameters, levels of protection, loadings, analysis methodologies, materials, detailing, and test procedures. It provides a comprehensive presentation of current practice in the analysis and design of structures for blast resistance. Commentaries on the requirements are also included. The Standard supplements existing building codes, standards, and laws, but is not intended to replace them.

[ACI] Earthquake Simulation Testing of Small-Scale Reinforced Concrete Structures
Author: V. Caccese and H. G. Harris | Size: 1.62 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: American Concrete Institute | Year: January 1, 1990 | pages: 9
Modeling techniques used in an experimental study of frame-wall interaction in multistory buildings subjected to strong earthquake motions are described. Considerations involved with the selection of materials, structural configuration, amounts of mass, and frequency contents and intensities of base motions are discussed with respect to limitations of small-scale modeling of reinforced concrete structures behaving in the nonlinear range of response. Samples of response observations are presented to demonstrate the applicability of using small-scale models for earthquake-engineering research.

For years, environmentalists and government officials alike sought renewal of the Florida Everglades, with a goal to restore wetlands, build reservoirs, and remove the crumbling roads that were built for failed housing subdivision projects. Now, thanks to a major law enacted by Congress and signed by President Barack Obama in 2009, those efforts are getting renewed attention. The federal statute is the S787 billion economic stimulus law, formally known as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009. Signed into law in February 2009, the legislation is creating and saving millions of jobs while addressing long-neglected infrastructure challenges for the 21st century. Among the top priorities of ARRA are civil works, military construction, and military support projects carried out by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE).

Aimed at researchers and graduate students in mathematics, mechanical engineering, material science and physics. The second edition of this classic text has been completely revised. The original edition was designed to introduce the serious, mathematically inclined student to modern mechanics of continua and the book still serves that purpose well. In the new edition, more emphasis is put on applications. There are new sections concerning universal solutions for incompressible materials and fluids presented in the spatial description. The concept of "universe of shapes" is introduced as a means of dealing with bodies in the actual shapes they occupy as time goes on. The text includes many special problems and solutions not found in other books. Attention is called to yet unsolved problems.

Author: by L. Buryakovsky, N.A. Eremenko, M.V. Gorfunkel, G.V. Chilingarian | Size: 5 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Developments in Petroleum Science, Volume 52. First edition | Year: 2005 | pages: 391 | ISBN: 9780444520531
This book discusses the progress that is being made through innovations in instrumental measurements of geologic and geochemical systems and their study using modern mathematical modeling. Fundamental aspects of petroleum geology and geochemistry, generation, migration, accumulation, evaluation and production of hydrocarbons are discussed with worldwide examples. Various physical and chemical properties of subsurface waters, crude oils and natural gases are described which is especially important to production engineering.
Discussion of the formation and accumulation of hydrocarbons includes
1) the changes in the chemical composition of hydrocarbons that originate from the debris of living plants and organisms to form crude oil and natural gas;
2) the origin of hydrocarbons in different areas of a single reservoir;
3) the conditions, which determine the distribution of water, oil and gas in the reservoir;
4) the migration of subsurface fluids until they eventually accumulate in isolated traps;
5) discussion of the traps as a function of sedimentary geology and tectonics.
This is based on the systems approach to the specific geologic and geochemical systems using analytical and statistical principles and examples of modern mathematical modeling of static and dynamic systems.
* Discusses fundamental aspects of petroleum geology and geochemistry, and generation, migration, accumulation, evaluation and production of hydrocarbons
* Presents a systems approach to the specific geologic and geochemical systems
