Book excerpt: Visible cracks are a way that buildings communicate that they are under stress. However, not all cracks will lead to structural failure. If cracks are properly interpreted, then unnecessary remedial work can be avoided.The people who are best placed to notice building cracks are the building?s occupants. If an occupant does not understand the significance of a crack, then their response can range from unnecessary emotional distress over non-structural cracks, to an oblivious neglect of structural cracks.Ignoring evidence of structural distress can be fatal to a building?s occupants during natural hazards. Since every house may not benefit from having a comprehensive structural engineering assessment, building occupants need a tool to inform them of a crack?s significance.This book describes typical cracks that I have observed in concrete and masonry buildings impacted by a diverse range of hazards, including: earthquakes, hurricanes, waves, floods, landslides, volcanoes, excessive gravity loads, foundation settlement and subsidence. It also includes idealised cracks of failed structures.This book is intended to benefit building contractors, owners, occupants, and maintenance personnel who may notice cracks and want to know their importance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together basic ideas, classical theories, recent experimental and theoretical aspects, this book explains desiccation cracks from simple, easily-comprehensible cases to more complex, applied situations. The ideal team of authors, combining experimental and theoretical backgrounds, and with experience in both physical and earth sciences, discuss how the study of cracks can lead to the design of crack-resistant materials, as well as how cracks can be grown to generate patterned surfaces at the nano- and micro-scales. Important research and recent developments on tailoring desiccation cracks by different methods are covered, supported by straightforward, yet deep theoretical models. Intended for a broad readership spanning physics, materials science, and engineering to the geosciences, the book also includes additional reading especially for students engaged in pattern formation research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sequel to A Corner of White. “Mixed in with the regal intrigue is a complex, moving look at families, friendship, and loss . . . thrilling.” —School Library Journal (starred review) Picking up where A Corner of White left off, Elliot is more determined to find his father than ever, now that he knows he’s still alive. But first he must help Princess Ko find her own missing family, as the secret search for the royals of Cello begins. As part of the Royal Youth Alliance, Elliot will travel all over the Kingdom of Cello looking for any clue or detail or spell that could bring them (and maybe his own father) home. But once he learns that the royal family has been trapped in the World all this time, with no memory of their former lives, his real value to the Alliance becomes clear: He’s the only one with a connection to the World, through Madeleine. Together, through notes, letters, and late nights, Elliot and Madeleine must find a way to travel across worlds and bring missing loved ones home. The stakes are high, the writing both hilarious and heart-poundingly suspenseful, and the experience of reading it, sheer pleasure. “Madcap, whimsical, smart and even heartbreaking . . . By turns coming-of-age and wild adventure, this volume complicates the characters, expands the worldbuilding and sets things up for a grand finish in the trilogy closer . . . even better than the first.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Full of clever invention and intrigue, excellent surprises, and all the sophisticated wit Moriarty’s fans expect.” —The Horn Book (starred review)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Simply put, the book is a blockbuster.” Stephen Lendman It's must reading to learn what schools to the highest levels never teach about the nation's most important document that lays out the fundamental law of the land in its Preamble, Seven Articles, Bill of Rights, and 17 other Amendments. Lundberg deconstructs it in depth, separating myth from reality about what he called "the great totempole of American society." What you think you know about the Constitution of the United States is probably false...even—and especially—if you are well educated. In 1968, a book appeared which told the story of the lords of wealth and their glittering clans. It was titled THE RICH AND THE SUPER-RICH. It has become a classic. Since then, Ferdinand Lundberg has devoted himself to research and writing on a subject not unrelated to the domains of wealth—the United States Constitution, that he found was material hitherto concealed from most readers and believers in the Constitution. What he concludes is that the Constitution is an unrestricted instrument of government that carries within it powers more vast than its citizens imagine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents recent advances related to the following two topics: how mechanical fields close to material or geometrical singularities such as cracks can be determined; how failure criteria can be established according to the singularity degrees related to these discontinuities. Concerning the determination of mechanical fields close to a crack tip, the first part of the book presents most of the traditional methods in order to classify them into two major categories. The first is based on the stress field, such as the Airy function, and the second resolves the problem from functions related to displacement fields. Following this, a new method based on the Hamiltonian system is presented in great detail. Local and energetic approaches to fracture are used in order to determine the fracture parameters such as stress intensity factor and energy release rate. The second part of the book describes methodologies to establish the critical fracture loads and the crack growth criteria. Singular fields for homogeneous and non-homogeneous problems near crack tips, v-notches, interfaces, etc. associated with the crack initiation and propagation laws in elastic and elastic-plastic media, allow us to determine the basis of failure criteria. Each phenomenon studied is dealt with according to its conceptual and theoretical modeling, to its use in the criteria of fracture resistance; and finally to its implementation in terms of feasibility and numerical application. Contents 1. Introduction. Part 1: Stress Field Analysis Close to the Crack Tip 2. Review of Continuum Mechanics and the Behavior Laws. 3. Overview of Fracture Mechanics. 4. Fracture Mechanics. 5. Introduction to the Finite Element Analysis of Cracked Structures. Part 2: Crack Growth Criteria 6. Crack Propagation. 7. Crack Growth Prediction in Elements of Steel Structures Submitted to Fatigue. 8. Potential Use of Crack Propagation Laws in Fatigue Life Design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would you do to save the star of your dreams? Dr. Matt Sinclair has everything a handsome young doctor would want-a thriving practice in the beautiful English countryside, the respect of his peers and friends, and a bank account that makes him more than financially comfortable. Just one thing is spoiling his idyllic life-a secret, unhealthy infatuation for a pop star from which he knows he must free himself. But fate is a strange thing.... Overnight, the golden girl whom everyone loved, everyone wanted a piece of, became devalued currency. Graphic details as to how the body had been discovered in her bedroom, and in what condition, were leaked, and the tabloids sucked it all up in the story-making machine, as more and more sensational headlines were spawned.
