Ebook Prediction of flow depth and sediment discharge in open channels
Submitted by antoq on Thu, 12/18/2008 - 06:28In recent years attempts have been made to develop numerical models for unsteady flows in channels with sediment transport. This work was conducted to analyze two essential ingredients of any numerical model: the relationship between the hydraulic variables (slope, depth, and velocity), and the predictor of sediment concentration.

Free Civil Engineering E-books: The Building Information Model in Facilities Management
Submitted by acrobat on Thu, 10/16/2008 - 20:05The construction industry’s traditional resistance to incorporate change has prevented benefits from technological advancements to accrue. One area in which technology shows potential to benefit the industry is in addressing the existing communication gaps between the designer, builder, and owner. This gap is more evident in the operation and maintenance of a building. At project completion, an owner also receives information of the building. This information is comprised of as-built drawings, operation and maintenance manuals, warranties, and other documents.
