Net Zero Transition in Buildings

A practical, straightforward, and easy-to-use graduate-level textbook on the principles of foundation engineering Advanced Foundation Engineering offers clear and detailed coverage of all aspects of the design, analysis, construction, and testing of structural elements responsible for transferring imposed loads from a superstructure to the ground. Written for advanced undergraduate and graduate engineering students, this comprehensive textbook incorporates traditional foundation engineering topics as well as recent advances and innovations in the field. The authors include discussion of timely issues such as the impact of the digital revolution, worldwide environmental concerns, the increasing scarcity of raw materials, the use of geotechnical data banks, the sustainability of construction materials, and new site investigation techniques. Focused on practical application rather than theoretical background, 27 in-depth chapters address the principles of geotechnical engineering, spread footings and mats, ground modifications, floating and shell foundations, single piles and drilled shafts, testing and calculation procedures, and more. Detailed case studies in each chapter connect the principles and performance of a particular foundation system, illustrate the measurement and evaluation of performance criteria, demonstrate the accuracy of analytical predictions, and validate the assumptions made in the analysis and design process. Providing the knowledge base required to design and build foundations for various types of onshore, offshore, and inland structures, Advanced Foundation Engineering: Outlines the key components of foundation systems, contemporary classification systems, analysis considerations, and design proceduresCovers diverse types of foundations and construction techniques, including shallow and semi-deep foundations, skirted and bucket foundations, floating foundations, and pile groupsDescribes data synthesis in preparing geotechnical reports, interactions between problematic soils and foundation design, and factors influencing the engineering properties of geomaterialsReviews the construction of various foundations on different geomaterials, key geotechnical requirements, and soil improvement methodsProvides insights into mitigating foundation issues, optimizing foundation selection, and maximizing existing foundations Advanced Foundation Engineering: Principles, Performance, and Prospects is an ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in foundation engineering and geotechnical engineering, and an invaluable reference for professional geotechnical engineers.

Explainable Internet of Things for Smart Cities

The chapters in this volume investigate some of the most important urban upheavals in recent history through different political, social and cultural contexts. Through this cross section of case studies from Ukraine, Belarus, Myanmar, Lebanon, Spain, United States, South Korea and Iran, authors envision the future of the successful urban protest as a whole-society movement in which all aspects of a city's morphology are effectively leveraged. The volume illustrates the ways in which these protests consciously and subconsciously drew lessons from each other's experiences and integrated physical and virtual tools. Urban environments shape, facilitate, and/or complicate protests and the degree to which protesters recognize and internalize these features is often key to their efficacy. Moreover, emerging protest strategies proliferate and change to fit the context in which they occur. Using interviews, mapping, architectural and planning-scale documentation of urban morphologies, this volume traces the development of important protests and the evolution of protest strategy in balancing the physical and the virtual. It will be of interest to architects, urban sociologists, urban planners, historians, political scientists, journalists, and anyone else interested in how the city shapes resistance.

Latent Heat Storage for Energy-Efficient Buildings and Zero-Carbon Communities serves as an up-to-date reference guide on the rapid progress the field is experiencing while keeping up with the much-required transformative initiatives to improve buildings' energy performance worldwide. To lay the foundations, the book opens with coverage of the fundamentals of phase-change materials, including their thermo-physical properties, nanoscale thermal transport mechanisms, encapsulation techniques, and heat transfer enhancement methods. It goes on to explore the integration of latent heat storage solutions in building envelopes or solar photovoltaics and heating/cooling systems, using mathematical models and performance analysis to discuss thermal management aspects for net-zero energy buildings and zero-carbon community concepts. The volume then delves into practical application of the most advanced, artificial intelligence-powered tools for system modeling and simulation, demand-side management control strategies, and metaheuristic optimization approaches. It finally concludes with an overview of technical challenges and emerging research areas which evidence academic and industry communities’ persistent interest in the future directions of topics interconnected with the sustainable development of the built environment.

The classic guide to water and wastewater engineering returns Water and wastewater engineering is a crucial branch of civil engineering, dealing with water resources and with the challenges posed by water and wastewater. Generations of engineers have developed techniques for purifying, desalinating, and transforming water and wastewater, techniques which have only grown more critical as climate change and global population growth create new challenges and opportunities. There has never been a more urgent need for a comprehensive guide to the management of water and its various engineering subdisciplines. Volume 1 of Water and Wastewater Engineering: Hydraulics, Hydrology, and Management, 4th edition has been fully updated to reflect the latest research and case studies. This vital text addresses growing urbanization and industrialization, with corresponding stress on water and wastewater systems. This first volume deals primarily with hydrology and hydraulics, along with chapters treating groundwater and surface water sources. Readers will also find: Coverage of water supply, water sources, water distribution, and moreDetailed treatment of both sanitary sewer and urban stormwater drainageIn-depth analysis of infrastructure issues with respect to water resources, pumping, and handling Water and Wastewater Engineering is ideal for advanced students in civil, environmental, and chemical engineering departments, as well as for early career engineers, plant managers, and urban and regional planners.
