Handbook of Geotechnical Investigation and Design Tables
Taylor & Francis 2007; US$ 107.95The book covers data for geotechnical works associated with planning, investigation, analysis, design and construction. It is fundamentally a data handbook, covering the breadth of the geotechnical discipline. This book is intended primarily for practising geotechnical engineers working in investigation, assessment and design, but will also... more...
Advanced Unsaturated Soil Mechanics and Engineering
Taylor & Francis 2007; US$ 200.00Analytical and comprehensive, this state-of-the-art book examines the mechanics and engineering of unsaturated soils, as well as explaining the laboratory and field testing and research that are the logical basis of this modern approach to safe construction in these hazardous geomaterials; putting them into a logical framework for civil engineering... more...
Durchlässigkeit von Böden
Diplomica Verlag 2008; US$ 46.37Der Durchlässigkeitsbeiwert stellt eine sehr wichtige Einflussgröße in vielen Teilgebieten der Bautechnik dar. Deshalb muss man bei der Ermittlung und Berechnung sehr sorgfältig und Gewissenhaft vorgehen. In vielen Fällen reicht eine reine Abschätzung nicht aus um realitätsnahe Berechnungen anstellen zu können. Wie die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt, stehen... more...
Constitutive Modelling in Geomechanics
Springer 2012; US$ 109.99The purpose of this book is to bridge the gap between the traditional Geomechanics and Numerical Geotechnical Modelling with applications in science and practice. Geomechanics is rarely taught within the rigorous context of Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics, while when it comes to Numerical Modelling, commercially available finite elements or... more...
Continuous and Discontinuous Modelling of Fracture in Concrete Using FEM
Springer 2012; US$ 139.99Lebenswelten multilokal Wohnender
Springer 2012; US$ 47.99Immer mehr Menschen wohnen an und zwischen mehreren Orten. Die Praxis des multilokalen Wohnens nimmt im Kontext des beschleunigten sozialen Wandels in der Spätmoderne vielfältige Gestalt an. Nicola Hilti präsentiert eine Studie, deren qualitatives Forschungsdesign die phänomenologische Breite des multilokalen Wohnens sowie die alltägliche... more...
Rock Joints
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2005; US$ 129.99"Rock Joints" deals with the mechanical genesis of joints in rocks. It is aimed at a comprehensible presentation of the underlying mechanical processes of various types of joints and joint systems. Field examples illustrate formational aspects of jointing, and Mohr's stress circle is used where possible to simplify the mathematics. more...
The Coupled Theory of Mixtures in Geomechanics with Applications
