57025Seismic design of reinforced concrete and masonry buildings
Emphasizes actual structural design, not analysis, of multistory buildings for seismic resistance. Strong emphasis is placed on specific detailing requirements for construction. Fundamental design principles are presented to create buildings that respond to a wide range of potential seismic forces, which are illustrated by numerous detailed examples. The discussion includes the design of reinforced concrete ductile frames, structural walls, dual systems, reinforced masonry structures, buildings with restricted ductility and foundation walls. In addition to the examples, full design calculations are given for three prototype structures.
57026Seismic principles practice exams for the California special civil engineer examination
The best way to assess your readiness for the California Special Civil Engineer Seismic Examination is to take a practice exam as similar to the actual exam as possible. Seismic Principles Practice Exams provides the most realistic practice you can get.These two complete practice exams, each with 47 multiple-choice problems, are designed to mimic the range of topics and degree of difficulty of the actual exam. With each exam, you can practice your problem-solving skills, find out how long you take to solve different types of problems, and determine which subject areas require more review or practice. Fully explained, step-by-step solutions are provided for each problem, allowing you to check your answers and understand the most efficient solving methods.

57028Selected papers of Abdus Salam : with commentary
This is a selection of over 250 papers published by Abdus Salam, distinguished theoretical physicist and Nobel Prize winner for physics in 1979 for his work on the unification of electromagnetic and weak interactions. The papers represent a cross-section of his work over the past 50 years.
57029Selected papers of F.W.J. Olver : part 2
This is a collection of selected papers written by Frank W J Olver from 1949 to 1999. It contains his most important contributions to the fields of asymptotic analysis and numerical analysis, including the global existence of uniform asymptotic expansions for solution of ordinary differential equations and construction of error bounds. It is a valuable collection for anyone who works in, or uses, asymptotics, and should be on the shelves of all major libraries.
