Download or read book Guide to Pavement Technology written by Geoff Jameson and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge of pavement technology is of critical importance for all transportation agencies in Australia and New Zealand. Austroads and others (e.g. state road authorities, local government, and industry) have amassed a great deal of knowledge on pavement technologies, techniques, and considerations. The purpose of the Austroads Guide to Pavement Technology is to assemble this knowledge into a single authoritative electronic publication that will be a readily available, accessible and comprehensive resource for practitioners in Australia and New Zealand. The target audience for the Austroads Guide to Pavement Technology includes all those involved with the management of roads, including industry and students seeking to learn more about the fundamental concepts, principles, issues and procedures associated with pavement technology. Part 2: Pavement Structural Design-provides advice for the structural design of sealed road pavements. The advice has been generally developed from the approaches followed in the Austroads member authorities. However, as it encompasses the wide range of materials and conditions found in Australia and New Zealand, some parts are broadly based. This part covers the assessment of input parameters needed for design, design methods for flexible and ridgid pavements, and gives guidance to the economic comparisons of alternative pavement designs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1974. From the preface: ""More than forty nations provided assistance to the Republic of Vietnam in its struggle against North Vietnam. This aid ranged from economic and technical assistance to educational and humanitarian contributions. Hundreds of Free World civilians worked in Vietnam as doctors, teachers, and technical specialists. Eight nations also provided military assistance. The flags of these Free World countries-the United States, the Republic of Korea, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, the Republic of China, and Spain-flew alongside the colors of the Republic of Vietnam at the headquarters of the Free World Military Assistance Forces in Saigon. The military contributions of these nations included combat troops, army medical teams, and individual political warfare advisers. The degree of assistance and co-operation among the concerned Free World nations resulted from years of work and involvement. While many nations expressed sympathy for the plight of South Vietnam, aid did not always come easily, quickly, or to the extent desired. Many nations, beset by their own internal economic and political problems, could do little to help; others did nothing. The story of the efforts of the contributing nations and the efforts to enlist their aid is the subject of this monograph.""

Download or read book Flood Risk Management Research and Practice written by Paul Samuels and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Floods cause distress and damage wherever and whenever they happen. Flooding from rivers, estuaries and the sea threatens many millions of people worldwide and economic and insurance losses from flooding have increased significantly since 1990. Based on the work of leading researchers, this book provides an overview of advances in this important subject. It covers all aspects of flood risk including the causes of floods; their impacts on people, property and the environment; and portfolios of risk management measurement. Additional topics include climate change, estimation of extremes, flash floods, flood forecasting and warning, inundation modeling, systems analysis, uncertainty, international programs, and flood defense infrastructure and assets. The book also examines environmental, human, and social impacts; vulnerability and resilience; risk sharing; and civil contingency planning and emergency management.

Download or read book Ground Vehicle Dynamics written by Karl Popp and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ground Vehicle Dynamics is devoted to the mathematical modelling and dynamical analysis of ground vehicle systems composed of the vehicle body, the guidance and suspension devices and the corresponding guideway. Automobiles on uneven roads and railways on flexible tracks are prominent representatives of ground vehicle systems. All these different kinds of systems are treated in a common way by means of analytical dynamics and control theory. In addition to a detailed modelling of vehicles as multibody systems, the contact theory for rolling wheels and the modelling of guideways by finite element systems as well as stochastic processes are presented. As a particular result of this integrated approach the state equations of the global systems are obtained including the complete interactions between the subsystems considered as independent modules. The fundamentals of vehicle dynamics for longitudinal, lateral and vertical motions and vibrations of automobiles and railways are discussed in detail.
