Engineering Asset Management and Infrastructure Sustainability
Engineering Asset Management 2010 represents state-of-the art trends and developments in the emerging field of engineering asset management as presented at the Fifth World Congress on Engineering Asset Management (WCEAM). The proceedings of the WCEAM 2010 is an excellent reference for practitioners, researchers and students in the multidisciplinary field of asset management, covering topics such as: Asset condition monitoring and intelligent maintenance Asset data warehousing, data mining and fusion Asset performance and level-of-service models Design and life-cycle integrity of physical assets Education and training in asset management Engineering standards in asset management Fault diagnosis and prognostics Financial analysis methods for physical assets Human dimensions in integrated asset management Information quality management Information systems and knowledge management Intelligent sensors and devices Maintenance strategies in asset management Optimisation decisions in asset management Risk management in asset management Strategic asset management Sustainability in asset management
Engineering Asset Management
It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the inaugural World Congress on Engineering Asset Management (WCEAM) being held at the Conrad Jupiters Hotel on the Gold Coast from July 11 to 14, 2006. More than 170 authors from 28 countries have contributed over 160 papers to be presented over the first three days of the conference. Day four will be host to a series of workshops devoted to the practice of various aspects of Engineering Asset Management. WCEAM is a new annual global forum on the various multidisciplinary aspects of Engineering Asset Management. It deals with the presentation and publication of outputs of research and development activities as well as the application of knowl...

Capitol Offense
"Capitol Offense" rips away the Austin facade and reveals a surprising cast of the real players and their cut-throat contentions. In the place where George W. Bush and Carl Rove learned their abc's of governing, Kemp's novel exposes the hidden 90% of the governing process which never makes its way into the news.
Got Skills, No Degree?
Got Skills, No Degree? is the product of the efforts of several apprentices who wanted to document their experiences from training at the Sembawang Shipyard from 1969. The book also includes the experiences of other apprentices and their subsequent achievements.
Multi-layer Pavement System under Blast Load
This book proposes the concept of a multi-layer pavement system to fulfill the blast resistance requirement for pavement design. It also presents a damage pattern chart for multi-layer pavement design and rapid repair after blast load. Such a multi-layer system consists of three layers including asphalt concrete (AC) reinforced with Geogrid (GST) at the top, a high-strength concrete (HSC) layer in the middle, and engineered cementitious composites (ECC) at the bottom. A series of large-scale laboratory impact tests were carried out to prove the usefulness of this concept and show its advantages over other conventional pavement system. Furthermore, field blast tests were conducted to show the actual behavior of this multi-layer pavement system subjected to blast load under real-world conditions.
Higher Engineering Mathematics
John Bird’s approach, based on numerous worked examples and interactive problems, is ideal for students from a wide range of academic backgrounds, and can be worked through at the student’s own pace. Basic mathematical theories are explained in the simplest of terms, supported by practical engineering examples and applications from a wide variety of engineering disciplines, to ensure the reader can relate the theory to actual engineering practice. This extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal text for a range of university degree modules, Foundation Degrees, and HNC/D units. An established text which has helped many thousands of students to gain exam success, now in its ...
Malaysian Islands: the Good, the Bad and the Finest
Forget those cookie-cutter travel leaflets read this book instead From spotting lumbering greenback turtles in the postcard-perfect Perhentians, to being scared stiff by a Japanese goddess in seductive Lang Tengah, to getting acquainted with a cheeky kitten-raping monkey in mythical Langkawi, to finding Nemo and his dad in dazzling Selingan exotic Malaysian islands present an assortment of mind-blowing experience for the diver, snorkeler, sunbather and beachcomber -- from the good, to the bad and to the finest. Knee-slapping, heart-warming and occasionally hair-raising (think lunatic bus drivers, ghosts and snakes), this collection of 30 absolutely dripping-with-local-color tales, as narrated by adventurers who have been there and seen it all, is bound to pack a wallop to the reader's imagination.
