Download or read book Einstein's Tunnel written by S. Perone and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-10 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a world turned upside down...a world created when a future time traveler re-directs the course of World War II. The United States has suffered six decades of oppressive fascist rule. Now, while a decimated band of expatriate American rebels fight to liberate their country, international dissension threatens a nuclear holocaust. Tony Shane--a rebel with a dangerous, incredible plan--has inherited wartime secrets that might free his country: a plan derived from Albert Einstein--whose cryptic legacy conceals an improbable time travel strategy. To unravel the secrets of "Einstein's tunnel," Shane persuades Sarah Stenstrom--a beautiful young scientist in a Nazi cyber-research laboratory--to join his cause. But their intimate relationship soon threatens the entire mission. Vito Mironi--a powerful mob boss within a corrupt Nazi regime--secretly supports the rebels. But the reality of Einstein's plan soon converts Mironi into Shane's most dangerous adversary. Joining Shane's desperate odyssey is a ruthless rebel assassin, Salomé, with a burning personal agenda. But only Nathan Carothers--charismatic rebel leader--knows the true dark purpose underlying their mission. Confronted by surprising obstacles, Tony Shane traverses a perilous path--while racing a deadly doomsday clock--to fulfill the promise of Einstein's Tunnel.
Book Synopsis Modern Tunneling (Classic Reprint) by : David W. Brunton
Download or read book Modern Tunneling (Classic Reprint) written by David W. Brunton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Tunneling In most of the published accounts of tunnel work, the writers usually do not attempt to criticise the methods they are de scribing. It is customary for such articles to contain accurate descriptions of equipment, various phases of working operations, and occasionally figures showing the cost of the work, but rarely do they include a discussion of the means for preserving the health and life'of the employees, or data bearing upon the choice and efficiency of equipment or an analysis of methods and costs. As a result, the reader in drawing conclusions is dependent wholly upon his own resources. In this volume, on the con trary, the making of such analyses will be a primary considera tion. It is desirable, nevertheless, in an impartial, disinterested book of this character to use constructive rather than destruc tive criticism. For that reason emphasis will be placed upon safe, efficient, and economical methods, and upon good points of equipment, While bad practice and obsolete machinery will be ignored except, perhaps, as examples of the inadvisable or as they have some bearing historically. Thus the authors hope to set forth a guide for future work rather than an unillumined record of past or present achievement.

Book Synopsis Practical Guide to Rock Tunneling by : Dean Brox
Download or read book Practical Guide to Rock Tunneling written by Dean Brox and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Practical Guide to Rock Tunneling fills an important void in the literature for a practical guide to the design and construction of tunnels in rock. Practical Guide to Rock Tunneling takes the reader through all the critical steps of the design and construction for rock tunnels starting from geotechnical site investigations through to construction supervision. The guide provides suggestions and recommendations for practitioners on special topics of laboratory testing, durability of rock and acceptance for unlined water conveyance tunnels, overstressing or deep and long tunnels, risk-based evaluation of excavation methods, contract strategies, and post-construction inspections. Key considerations and lessons learned from selected case projects are presented based on the author’s extensive international experience of over 30 years and 1000 km of tunneling for civil, hydropower, and mining infrastructure, including some of the most recognized projects in the world to date. Instead of revisiting all theory and concepts that can be found in other sources, this book contains the hard learned lessons from the author’s experience in the field of Rock Tunneling, gathered over 30 years of service.
