DOWNLOAD EBOOKPractical Engineering Geology provides an introduction to the way projects are managed, designed and constructed, and how the engineering geologist can contribute to cost- effective and safe project achievement. The need for a holistic view of geological materials, from soil to rock, and of geological history is emphasised. Chapters address key aspects of Geology for engineering and ground modelling Site investigation and testing of geological materials Geotechnical parameters Design of slopes, tunnels, foundations, and other engineering structures Identifying hazards Avoiding unexpected ground conditions This second edition includes a new chapter on environmental issues covering hydrogeology, considerations of climate change, earthquakes, and more. All chapters have been updated, with extensively revised figures throughout and several new case studies of unexpected ground conditions. The book will support practising engineering geologists and geotechnical engineers, as well as MSc level students of engineering geology and other geotechnical subjects.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNew Challenges in Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering includes the contributions presented at the ISRM European Rock Mechanics Symposium Eurock 2024 (Alicante, Spain, 15-19 July 2024), and explores cutting-edge advancements in rock mechanics and rock engineering. This comprehensive compilation covers various aspects of rock mechanics and rock engineering, including: rock properties, testing methods, infrastructure and mining rock mechanics, design analysis, stone heritage preservation, geophysics, numerical modeling, monitoring techniques, underground excavation support, risk assessment, and the application of EUROCODE-7 in rock engineering. Furthermore, it addresses areas like geomechanics for the oil and gas industry, applications of artificial intelligence, remote sensing methodologies and geothermal technology. New Challenges in Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering covers the latest breakthroughs and tackles the new challenges in rock mechanics and rock engineering, is aimed at scientists and professionals in these fields, and serves as an essential resource for keeping up to date with industry trends and solutions.
Geology's Significant Sites and their Contributions to Geoheritage

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe contributions in this book explore several geologically significant sites and, in doing so, acknowledge and explore not just the geological exposures themselves, but also the people and issues that are fundamentally intertwined with the history of our science and its impact on our society. Through selective examples of outcrops and locales integral to the history of geology, we explore the evolution of modern geology, as well as the geodiversity and geoheritage of our planet. While the volume is far from comprehensive, the chapters contained herein detail a range for geoheritage value, scale of geoheritage sites and potential for geoheritage opportunities that will promote a broader, richer understanding of the complexity of the geoheritage of Earth. Importantly, many chapters offer a cautionary tale of sites almost lost to posterity and submit their take-away lessons for community mobilization towards geoheritage site protection.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Encyclopedia of Earthquake Engineering is designed to be the authoritative and comprehensive reference covering all major aspects of the science of earthquake engineering, specifically focusing on the interaction between earthquakes and infrastructure. The encyclopedia comprises approximately 300 contributions. Since earthquake engineering deals with the interaction between earthquake disturbances and the built infrastructure, the emphasis is on basic design processes important to both non-specialists and engineers so that readers become suitably well informed without needing to deal with the details of specialist understanding. The encyclopedia’s content provides technically-inclined and informed readers about the ways in which earthquakes can affect our infrastructure and how engineers would go about designing against, mitigating and remediating these effects. The coverage ranges from buildings, foundations, underground construction, lifelines and bridges, roads, embankments and slopes. The encyclopedia also aims to provide cross-disciplinary and cross-domain information to domain-experts. This is the first single reference encyclopedia of this breadth and scope that brings together the science, engineering and technological aspects of earthquakes and structures.
