دانلود کتاب Environmental Geomechanics

This book covers a range of topics that are of increasing importance in engineering practice: natural hazards, pollution, and environmental protection through good practice. The first half of the book deals with natural risk factors, of both natural and human origin, that should be considered: subsidence, accidental infiltration, soil instability, rockslides and mudslides, debris flow, and degradation of buildings and monuments due to pollution and climactic effects, for example. These problems are highlighted and it is shown that a combination of sophisticated numerical techniques and extensive experimental investigations are necessary in order to effectively tackle these problems. The second half of the book is devoted to the use of polluted sites and associated problems, a topic of growing significance given the increasing reclamation of land from abandoned industrial sites for urban development over the last 20 years. Different types of oil pollution and decontamination methods are described, followed by a discussion of waste management and detailed coverage of confinement liners used in surface waste disposal.Content: Chapter 1 Debris Flows (pages 1–37): Christophe AnceyChapter 2 Snow Avalanches (pages 39–71): Christophe AnceyChapter 3 Instability of Soil Masses (pages 73–92): Laurent VullietChapter 4 Instability of Rock Masses (pages 93–115): Francois DescoeudresChapter 5 Subsidence Phenomena (pages 117–148): Bernhard Schrefler and Luciano SimoniChapter 6 Soil Collapse due to Water Infiltration (pages 149–169): Yu?Jun Cui and Pierre DelageChapter 7 Subsidence Induced by Fossil Fuel Extraction (pages 171–199): Christian Schroeder, Yu?Jun Cui and Bernhard SchreflerChapter 8 Deterioration of Stone in Monuments (pages 201–245): Veronique Verges?BelminChapter 9 The Physics of Water Transfer in Stone (pages 247–273): Jean?Paul LaurentChapter 10 Experimental Techniques for Characterizing Alterations (pages 275–311): Claude Brunjail, Guy Bastian, Gregoire Chene, Veronique Verges?Belmin and Philippe BrombletChapter 11 Case Studies (pages 313–332): Jean Godin, Claude Brunjail, Veronique Verges?Belmin and Ann BourgesChapter 12 The Nature and Survey of Soil Pollution (pages 333–360): Abdelmalek Bouazza, Pierre Delage and Michel WojnarowiczChapter 13 Retention and Transfer of Soluble Chemical Pollutants: Mechanisms and Numerical Modeling (pages 361–391): Robert Charlier and Jean?Pol RaduChapter 14 Retention and Transfer of Pollution by Hydrocarbons: Mechanisms and Numerical Modeling (pages 393–417): Bernhard Schrefler and Pierre DelageChapter 15 Methods of Soil Environmental Remediation (pages 419–457): Abdelmalek Bouazza, Michel Wojnarowicz and Mario ManasseroChapter 16 Liners for Waste Containment Facilities (pages 459–507): Abdelmalek Bouazza, Michel Wojnarowicz and Mario Manassero
