Progress in Industrial and Civil Engineering (PDF)

These are papers selected from the 2012 International Conference on Civil, Architectural and Hydraulic Engineering (ICCAHE 2012) held on August 10-12th 2012 in Zhangjiajie, China. The 947 peer- reviewed papers present cutting-edge knowledge related to "e;Progress in Industrial and Civil Engineering"e; and are grouped into 17 chapters: Geological and Geotechnical Engineering;Structural Engineering; Tunnel, Subway and Underground Facilities; Road and Railway Engineering; Bridge Engineering; Coastal Engineering; Seismic Engineering; Surveying Engineering, Cartography and Geographic Information Systems; Monitoring and Control of Structures; Reliability and Durability of Structures; Natural and Technogenic Disasters Prevention and Mitigation; Building Science and Technology; Traditional Construction Materials; Novel Constructional Materials and Functional Materials; Heating, Gas Supply, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Works; Applied and Computational Mechanics; Computer Application, Mathematical Modeling and AnalysisFive volumes contain something like 800 peer-reviewed papers from a conference held in China in August 2012, focused on topics of interest to scientists, engineers, policymakers, and specialists in civil, architectural, and hydraulic engineering. The theme was "e;innovation in construction,"e; and contributors represented some 30 countries. Broad themes include geological and geotechnical engineering; structural engineering; tunnel, subway, and underground facilities; roads and railways; bridges; coastal engineering; seismic engineering; surveying; cartography and geographic information systems; monitoring and control of structures; reliability and durability of structures; disaster prevention and mitigation; traditional and novel construction materials; heating; gas supply; ventilation; and mathematical modeling, among other topics.
