Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics - Hardcover

Civil engineering refers to a professional engineering discipline concerned with the design, building and maintenance of physical and naturally created environment including dams, roads, railways, sewage systems, bridges, airports, canals, pipelines, buildings and their structural components. Civil engineering is traditionally divided into several sub-disciplines. It is related with the knowledge of materials science, structures, geology, geography, hydrology, soils, mechanics, environmental science and project management. Engineering mechanics refers to the use of mechanics to address real-world problems using fundamental engineering components. It involves the study of micro and nanomechanics, dynamics and vibrations of complex structures, mechanics of biological and energy systems, mechanical properties of materials, aero and hydrodynamics, and stress analysis of fixed and movable structures. This book provides significant information of engineering mechanics to help develop a good understanding of civil engineering. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field.
