Progress in Civil Engineering

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).These selected papers provide up-to-date and comprehensive state-of-the art information on the fields of Geotechnical Engineering; Geological Engineering; Tunnel, Subway and Underground Facilities; Hydraulic Engineering; Coastal Engineering; Water Supply and Drainage Engineering; Heating, Gas Supply, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Works; Cartography and Geographic Information Systems; Surveying Engineering; Construction Technology; Computer Application and CAD/CAE. This volume will be an asset to those involved in these domains.This four-volume proceedings set collects selected peer-reviewed papers from a May 2012 conference held in China. Contributors from industry and academia report on the latest research, applications, experiences, and best practices in civil engineering, architecture, and building materials. Volume 1 is devoted to geotechnical engineering, covering topics including Markov models for dynamic analysis of rock-soil structure, the influence of changes in plasma on the strength properties of sand, and buckling and post-buckling behavior of roof strata in longwall mining. Volume 2 offers papers on geological engineering and hydraulic engineering, shedding light on topics such as analysis of infiltration rates in groundwater reservoirs, and macro-micro analysis of soil fracture mechanisms in unloading conditions. Volume 3 presents chapters on water supply and drainage engineering; heating, gas supply, ventilation, and air conditioning works; and cartography and geographic information systems. Some subjects include numerical simulation of heat transfer characteristics of dimpled plates, and topographic maps for civil and hydraulic planning. Volume 4 contains chapters on cartography and geographic information systems, survey engineering, construction technology, and computer applications and CAD/CAE.
