Structural Engineering and Geomechanics - Volume 1 by Sashi K. Kunnath Pdf

An understanding of dynamic effects on structures is critical to minimize losses from earthquakes and other hazards. These three books provide an overview of essential topics in structural and geotechnical engineering with an additional focus on related topics in earthquake engineering to enable readers gain such an understanding. One of the ultimate objectives of these books is to provide readers with insights into seismic analysis and design. However, in order to accomplish that objective, background material on structural and geotechnical engineering is necessary. Hence the first two sections of the book provide this background material followed by selected topics in earthquake engineering. The material is organized into three major parts. The first section covers topics in structural engineering. Beginning with fundamental mechanics of materials, the book includes chapters on linear and nonlinear analysis as well as topics on modeling of structures from different perspectives. In addition to traditional design of structural systems, introductions to important concepts in structural reliability and structural stability are discussed. Also covered are subjects of recent interest, viz., blast and impact effects on structures as well as the use of fiber reinforced polymer composites in structural applications. Given the growing interest in urban renewal, an interesting chapter on restoration of historic cities is also included. The second part of the book covers topics in geotechnical engineering, covering both shallow and deep foundations and issues and procedures for geotechnical modeling. The final part of the book focuses on earthquake engineering with emphasis on both structures and foundations. Here again, the material covered includes both traditional seismic design and innovative seismic protection. And more importantly, concepts in modeling for seismic analysis are highlighted.

The Geology of Egypt by Zakaria Hamimi,Ahmed El-Barkooky,Jesús Martínez Frías,Harald Fritz,Yasser Abd El-Rahman Pdf

This richly illustrated book offers a concise overview of the geology of Egypt in the context of the geology of the Arab Region and Northeast Africa. An introductory chapter on history of geological research in Egypt sheds much light on the stages before and after the establishment of Egyptian Geological Survey (the second oldest geological survey worldwide), Hume's book and Said's 1962, 1990 books. The book starts with the Precambrian geology of Egypt, in terms of lithostratigraphy and classifications, structural and tectonic framework, crustal evolution and metamorphic belts. A dedicated chapter discusses the Paleozoic-Mesozoic-Cenozoic tectonics and structural evolution of Egypt. A chapter highlights the Red Sea tectonics and the Gulf of Suez and Gulf of Aqaba Rifts. Subsequent chapters address the Phanerozoic geology from Paleozoic to Quaternary. The Egyptian Impact Crater(s) and Meteorites are dealt with in a separate chapter. The Earth resources in Egypt, including metallic and non-metallic ore deposits, hydrocarbon and water resources, are given much more attention throughout four chapters. The last chapter addresses the seismicity, seismotectonics and neotectonics of Egypt.

Metallogeny of Heavy Oils, Natural Bitumens, and Oil Shales by Iosif S. Goldberg,Richard F. Meyer Pdf

Increasing demand for rare and disseminated elements such as vanadium has led to interest in extracting those elements from heavy oil, bitumen, and oil shale. This would provide additional benefits such as extra income from byproduct sales. This book begins with a review of the origin and distribution of bitumen and heavy oil and of the rare and disseminated elements found in oil and bitumen. The book then discusses the metallogenic specialization of oil and gas provinces worldwide, the origin of rare/disseminated element concentrations in oil and bitumen, and genetic types of metalliferous oil/bitumen deposits. Subsequent chapters describe distribution patterns of metalliferous heavy oil and bitumen by region, prediction of zones of occurrence, rare elements found in oil shales, total global rare-metal resources in bitumen/heavy oil/oil shale deposits, and the joint development of metalliferous bitumen/oil deposits.
