The book presents a unified approach to the design and detailing of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. Simple and, above all, clear models in the form of stress fields, consistently based on the theory of plasticity are developed to determine the statical action and the strength. These models are then used to design and detail the structural components and connecti...(展开全部)

The book presents the basics of Riemannian geometry in its modern form as geometry of differentiable manifolds and the most important structures on them. The authors' approach is that the source of all constructions in Riemannian geometry is a manifold that allows one to compute scalar products of tangent vectors. With this approach, the authors show that Riemannian geometry ha...(展开全部)

"In presenting us with a vision of organic exuberance and human delight, which ecology and ecological design promise to open up for us, McHarg revives the hope for a better world." --Lewis Mumford *"This century's most influential landscape architecture book." --Landscape Architecture *In the twenty-five years since it first took the academic world by storm, Design With Nature ...(展开全部)

Designed for senior-level and graduate courses in Dynamics of Structures and Earthquake Engineering. Dynamics of Structures includes many topics encompassing the theory of structural dynamics and the application of this theory regarding earthquake analysis, response, and design of structures. No prior knowledge of structural dynamics is assumed and the manner of presen...(展开全部)

Fundamentals of Digital Logic With Verilog Design teaches the basic design techniques for logic circuits. It emphasizes the synthesis of circuits and explains how circuits are implemented in real chips. Fundamental concepts are illustrated by using small examples. Use of CAD software is well integrated into the book. A CD-ROM that contains Altera's Quartus CAD software comes f...(展开全部)
