Applied Soil Mechanics with ABAQUS Applications
A simplified approach to applying the Finite Element Method to geotechnical problems Predicting soil behavior by constitutive equations that are based on experimental findings and embodied in numerical methods, such as the finite element method, is a significant aspect of soil mechanics. Engineers are able to solve a wide range of geotechnical engineering problems, especially inherently complex ones that resist traditional analysis. Applied Soil Mechanics with ABAQUS® Applications provides civil engineering students and practitioners with a simple, basic introduction to applying the finite element method to soil mechanics problems. Accessible to someone with little background in soil mechan...
CFD Modeling of Complex Chemical Processes
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which uses numerical analysis to predict and model complex flow behaviors and transport processes, has become a mainstream tool in engineering process research and development. Complex chemical processes often involve coupling between dynamics at vastly different length and time scales, as well as coupling of different physical models. The multiscale and multiphysics nature of those problems calls for delicate modeling approaches. This book showcases recent contributions in this field, from the development of modeling methodology to its application in supporting the design, development, and optimization of engineering processes.

Construction Vibration Attenuation with Distance and Its Effect on the Quality of Early-age Concrete
Damage to structures due to vibrations from pile driving operations is of great concern to engineers. This research has stemmed from the need to address potential damage to concrete-filled pipe piles and recently placed concrete structures that could be affected by pile driving vibrations. The study will focus on two topics: (1) The attenuation of potentially damaging pile driving vibrations with distance from the source, and (2) The effects of distance and curing time of concrete on the quality (unconfined compressive strength) of recentlyplaced concrete exposed to pile driving vibrations. The effects of pile driving vibrations did not cause problems with concrete compressive strength except for the case where concrete had only cured for 4 to 6 hours before vibration.

Wisconsin Transportation Research, 2000
This Report to Stakeholders reviews some of our transportation research efforts in Wisconsin during the past four years. A few of these studies are already complete and have made a significant impact on the way we do business. Many of the projects will be finished in the coming months. For all of us interested in Wisconsin's transportation future, the report provides an overview of these diverse and laudable investigations.
Investigation of Vertical Members to Resist Surficial Slope Instabilities
This report summarizes the state of the art of using reinforcing structural members to stabilize surficial slope failures. The research team identified the following three innovative methods of surficial slope stability: installing small size structural members by conventional methods; installing launched soil nails, and installing earth anchors. This report includes detailed information regarding the design and analysis methodology for structural members, the material properties of structural members used, construction methods, cost-effectiveness, and case histories.
