Description

Basic concepts in the mechanics and hydraulics of unsaturated geomaterials / Alessandro Tarantino -- Mechanics of unsaturated soils / Lyesse Laloui, Mathieu Nuth and Bertrand Franc̦ois -- Desiccation cracking of soils / Hervé Peron [and others] -- Experimental techniques for unsaturated geomaterials / Pierre Delage -- New experimental tools for the characterization of highly overconsolidated clayey materials in unsaturated conditions / Simon Salager, Alessio Ferrari and Lyesse Laloui -- Field measurement of suction, water content and water permeability / Alessandro Tarantino -- Hydromechanical coupling theory in unsaturated geomaterials and its numerical integration / Robert Charlier [and others] -- Conservation laws for coupled hydro-mechanical processes in unsaturated porous media : theory and implementation / Ronaldo I. Borja and Joshua A. White -- Strain localization modeling in coupled transient phenomena / Frédéric Collin, Yannick Sieffert and René Chambon -- Modeling landslides in partially saturated slopes subjected to rainfall infiltration / John Eichenberger, Mathieu Nuth and Lyesse Laloui -- Thermally induced moisture transport and pore pressure generation in nearly saturated geomaterials / Antony P.S. Selvadurai -- Mechanics of unsaturated geomaterials applied to nuclear waste storage / Antonio Gens -- Soil-pipeline interaction in unsaturated soils / Dilan Robert and Kenichi Soga -- Coefficient B, consolidation, and swelling in fine soils near saturation in engineering practice / Luc Boutonnier -- Geomechanical analysis of river embankments / Cristina Jommi and Della Vecchia.;This book provides a sound basis in the challenging area of the mechanics of unsaturated geomaterials. The objective is to supply the reader with an exhaustive overview starting from the basics and covering the most recent theories and applications (i.e. natural disasters, nuclear waste disposal, oil and agriculture productions). The presentation of the fundamental concepts is based on an interdisciplinary approach, in the areas of soil, rock and cement-based material mechanics.

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
