Understanding the mechanical behavior of solids and contacts
(interfaces and joints) is vital for the analysis, design, and
maintenance of engineering systems. Materials may simultaneously
experience the effects of many factors such as elastic, plastic,
and creep strains, different loading (stress) paths, volume change
under shear stress, microcracking leading to fracture and failure,
strain softening or degradation. Typically the available models
account for only one factor at a time, however, the Disturbed State
Concept (DSC) with the Hierarchical Single Surface (HISS)
plasticity is a unified modelling approach that can allow for
numerous factors simultaneously, and in an integrated manner.
DSC/HISS Modeling Applications for Problems in Mechanics,
Geomechanics, and Structural Mechanics provides readers with
comprehensive information including the basic concepts and
applications for the Disturbed State Concept (DSC)/ HISS modeling
regarding a wide range of engineering materials and contacts.
Uniformity in format and content of each chapter will make it
easier for the reader to appreciate the potential of using the
DSC/HISS modeling across various applications. Features: Presents a
new and simplified way to learn characterizations and behaviors of
materials and contacts under various conditions Offers modeling
applicable to several different materials including geologic
(clays, sands, rocks), modified geologic materials (structured
soils, overconsolidated soils, expansive soils, loess, frozen
soils, chemically treated soils), hydrate bearing sediments, and

This is the most comprehensive account of Gloucestershire's birds
ever produced, covering all the species recorded in the county in
modern times. There are detailed maps showing the distribution and
abundance of over 130 regular species, based on four years of
fieldwork carried out by hundreds of volunteers. Graphs, tables and
statistics illustrate the patterns of occurrence of many species,
including passage migrants and rarities. Also included are
descriptions of the bird habitats and the history of bird watching
and conservation in the county. Some of Britain's most prominent
bird artists, past and present, including Jackie Garner, Robert
Gillmor, Terence Lambert, Peter Partington, Peter Scott and Keith
Shackleton, have provided beautiful illustrations, which sit
alongside sumptuous photographs of many of the birds and the
county's landscapes. The volume includes a Foreword by His Royal
Highness the Prince of Wales.
The bike that is most fun to ride is the bike that you have made
yourself, and the good news is that anyone can do it. This simple
guide walks you through the process, from working out what you
need, creating the specification, sourcing parts, to the enjoyable
weekend spent building your new bike from scratch. When your bike
is finished it will need looking after, and the book includes
equally clear maintenance guidelines; those expensive and
inconvenient trips to the bike shop will become a thing of the
past. Beautifully illustrated by Lee John Phillips, the book is a
useful self-purchase and equally makes a great gift for cyclists
and hobbyists.
A common assumption about cities throughout the world is that they are essentially an elaboration of the Euro-American model. Postcolonial Urbanism demonstrates the narrowness of this vision. The book shows that cities in the postcolonial world are producing novel forms of urbanism not reducible to Western models. Despite being heavily colonized in the past, Southeast Asia has been largely ignored in discussions about postcolonial theory in general considerations of global urbanism. An international cast of contributors focuses on the heavily urbanized world region of Southeast Asia to investigate the novel forms of urbanism germinating in postcolonial settings such as Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Hanoi and the Philippines. Offering a mix of theoretical perspectives and empirical accounts, Postcolonial Urbanism presents a panoramic view of the cultures, societies and politics of the postcolonial city.

Melanie Klein holds a unique place in psychoanalytic history and is known for having radically extended the scope of both theory and practice in the field. The essays in Reading Melanie Klein have been chosen to reflect the most innovative work on Kleinian thought in recent years and respond to the upsurge in interest in her work among clinicians and academics. In explaining the central tenets of Klein's thought and providing an introduction to the diversity of current work in this field, the book will act as a catalyst for debate and dialogue not only within the psychoanalytic community but also across social, critical and cultural studies.

The Encyclopedia of Erotic Literature is a two-volume work that
contains some 540 entries on erotic literature on an international
scale. The Encyclopedia has an unprecedented scope, the first
scholarly reference resource to bring the field together in all its
fascinating variety. The entries examine the history of the
literature in different countries and languages from classical
antiquity to the present day, individual writers from around the
world (not all of them necessarily known as specialist writers of
erotic literature), significant works, genres and critical
approaches, and general themes pertinent to erotic literature
(nudity, prostitution, etc.). The definition of erotic literature
is broad, encompassing all the material recognized in the study of
the field: not just fiction in all genres (novels, poetry, short
stories, drama), but also essays, autobiographies, treatises and
sex manuals from different cultures. This Encyclopedia deals with
sexually explicit texts characterized by sexual representations and
suggestions. All types of sexuality are included. For more

William Smith (1769-1839) was best known as the author of the Map
of the Strata of England and Wales - indeed, he was known as
'Strata' Smith. His Memoirs, edited by his nephew John Phillips and
published in 1844, tell the story of his life from his beginnings
as a blacksmith's son in Oxfordshire to his geological work. Smith
began as an assistant to a land surveyor and moved into
mine-related projects, including excavations for canal-building.
During the course of one such project he realised the significance
of strata within layers of rock, and in subsequent surveys he could
locate deposits of coal, iron and other minerals. Smith suffered
throughout his life from financial problems which frustrated
publication of his works; his map was published in 1815, but
further works were never completed. Towards the end of his life,
however, he finally received the scientific recognition that was
his due.
This book addresses issues of space, historicity, architecture and
textuality by focusing on Singapore's singular position in the
region and as a global city. The articles consider how various
experiences of Singapore, both from within and from outside, help
to complicate existing assumptions about global urbanism,
postcolonialism, and architectural theory while producing
challenging new ideas from a variety of disciplines concerned with
how space, historicity, architecture and textuality inform one
another. This singular focus is treated from a range of
disciplinary perspectives. Contributors include experts in literary
and cultural criticism, critical theory, cultural anthropology,
history sociology, economics, architecture and philosophy.

Hammer Horror film set in Egypt 1920. Sir Basil Walden, with his
assitants Claire, Harry and Paul, stumble on the sealed desert tomb
of the young Pharoah Kah-To-Bey. When the expedition fails to

This is the first new translation in over forty years of Sade's
novel Justine. It is also the first ever critical edition, based on
the original 1791 version of the story, which is the most
accessible and artistically successful of the three versions. The
novel tells the story of the beautiful and devout Justine, whose
steadfast faith and naive trust destine her from the outset for
sexual exploitation and martyrdom. The unending catalog of
disasters that befall her, during which she is subject to any
number of perverse practices, illustrate Sade's belief in the
primacy of Nature over civilization. Virtue is no match for vice,
and as criminality and violence triumph, Justine is doomed to
suffer. Indeed, the novel mounts a ferocious physical and
intellectual assault on absolute notions of good and evil.
John Phillips's lively translation conveys the tone of Sade's
original text and his introduction situates Sade's narrative in its
historical, literary, and philosophical background, discussing such
major themes as attitudes to women, the church, the justice system,
and the world of finance, the sadistic and masochistic elements,
and the novel's reception. The extensive notes shed light on
religious and philosophical ideas and explain allusions to topical
events.
