5TH EDITION

Advanced Unsaturated Soil Mechanics and Engineering

Charles W.W. Ng, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong and Bruce Menzies, GDS Instruments Ltd, UK Analytical and comprehensive, this up-to-date book examines the mechanics and engineering of unsaturated soils, as well as explaining the modern approach to safe construction in these hazardous geomaterials. It identifies and examines: the importance of state-dependent soil-water characteristic curves modern soil testing of unsaturated soil behaviour, including total volume changes and anisotropic soil stiffness at very small strains the behaviour of loose fills from unsaturated to saturated states; strain-softening and static liquefaction, and real applications in unsaturated soil slope engineering. Introducing an advanced state-dependent elastoplastic constitutive model and a new conjunctive surface and subsurface transient flow model for analyzing rainfall infiltration in unsaturated soil slopes, the book also includes purpose-designed field trials to capture independent stress variables on unsaturated soils. An illustrative companion website runs alongside the text, creating a comprehensive reference for geotechnical professionals.
Selected Contents: Part 1: Physical and Flow Characteristics of Unsaturated Soils Part 2: Collapse, Swelling, Strength and Stiffness of Unsaturated Soils Part 3: State-Dependent Elasto-Plastic Modelling of Unsaturated Soils Part 4: Field Trials and Numerical Studies in Slope Engineering of Unsaturated Soils

Debris Flow
Mechanics, Prediction and Countermeasures
Tamotsu Takahashi, Kyoto University, Japan This is a comprehensive account of debris flow, describing both theoretical and applied aspects. In the first part, the fundamental mechanical characteristics are discussed, including flow characteristics, type classification, mechanics, occurrence and development, fully developed flow, and deposition processes. The second part sheds light on the application of the theories presented in computer-simulated reproductions of real disasters. Special attention is paid to debris flow controlling structures, design effectiveness and performance, soft countermeasure problems, such as the identification of debris flow prone ravines and the prediction of occurrence by means of precipitation threshold. The qualitative and fundamental character of this text makes it excellent reading for professionals in engineering, geosciences and water resources who are working on the mechanics and countermeasures of debris flow.

Geotechnical Modelling
David Muir Wood Modelling forms an implicit part of all engineering design but many engineers engage in modelling without consciously considering the nature, validity and consequences of the supporting assumptions. Derived from courses given to postgraduate and final year undergraduate MEng students, this book presents some of the models that form a part of the typical undergraduate geotechnical curriculum and describes some of the aspects of soil behaviour which contribute to the challenge of geotechnical modelling. Assuming a familiarity with basic soil mechanics and traditional methods of geotechnical design, this book is a valuable tool for students of geotechnical, structural and civil engineering as well as being useful to practising engineers involved in the specification of numerical or physical geotechnical modelling.

3RD EDITION

Concrete Pavement Design, Construction, and Performance

Norbert Delatte, Cleveland State University, USA Addressing different design and construction variables and techniques, this book illustrates best practices for constructing economical, long life concrete pavements. Use is made of modelling and performance tools such as HIPERPAV and LTPP to illustrate behaviour and performance, along with some case studies. As concrete pavements are more complex than they seem, and the costs of mistakes or of over-design can be high, this is a valuable book for engineers in both the public and private sectors.

Reliability-Based Design in Geotechnical Engineering

Computations and Applications
Edited by Kok-Kwang Phoon, National University of Singapore This book encourages geotechnical engineers to apply reliability-based design in a realistic context that recognizes the complex variability in geomaterials and model uncertainties arising from a profession steeped in empiricism. This book presents practical computational methods in concrete steps that can be followed by engineers and students. It also provides geotechnical examples illustrating reliability analyses and design. By focusing on learning through computations and examples, this book serves as a valuable reference for engineers and as a resource for students.

Introductory Geotechnical Engineering

An Environmental Perspective
Hsai-Yang Fang and John L. Daniels, both at the Global Institute for Energy and Environment, USA Integrating and blending traditional theory with particle-energy-field theory, this book explains the why and how of geotechnical engineering in an environmental context. Using both SI and Imperial units, the authors cover rock mechanics, soil mechanics, hydrogeology, soil properties and classifications and issues relating to contaminated land.
