Thermal Insulation Materials for Building Applications

Author(s): Latif Eshrar, Rachel Bevan and Tom Woolley
Publication date: 06 September 2019
ISBN: 9780727763518
£50.00
Modern day buildings are now expected to be low energy or near zero energy to reduce carbon emissions. A key step in making building low energy is to minimise heat transfer through the building fabric with insulation fabrics. However, how can a practitioner choose the most effective fabric for the job in hand? With so many thermal insulation materi

Bio- and Chemo- Mechanical Processes in Geotechnical Engineering

Author(s): Edited by Lyesse Laloui
Publication date: 03 September 2014
ISBN: 9780727760531
£88.25
In recent years, substantial advances have been made in understanding the coupling between chemical and biological processes and mechanical and hydraulic behaviours in soils and rocks. At the same time, experimentation and modelling capabilities have progressed significantly, allowing effective design of geotechnical applications. The need for such
