English | 2010 | ISBN: 0784411476 | PDF | pages: 1152 | 174.9 mb
Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Scour and Erosion, held in San Francisco, California, November 7-10, 2010. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE; Environmental and Water Resources Institute of ASCE; International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering. This collection contains 113 papers on scour and erosion, which constitute some of the most critical threats to maintaining infrastructure and quality of life throughout the world. As the human population expands, the responsibilities of engineers, scientists, and designers continue to increase. The demand for a creative approach to effective control of scour and erosion also becomes more pressing, requiring cross-disciplinary synthesis of information from the fields of hydraulic and geotechnical engineering. The papers presented in this book examine the scour and erosion of hillside, fluvial, estuarine, and coastal environments at the interface of water, soil, and rock. Topics include: bridge scour; erosion of soils; scour and erosion of dams and levees; scour of offshore platforms and underwater pipelines; numerical modeling; physical model tests; rock scour; case histories, management, and field studies; monitoring; countermeasures, stream stability, and erosion of slopes; and FHWA equations and design standards. This proceedings will be valuable to anyone working in the fields of geotechnical or environmental engineering.

Free Download Pavin Chachavalpongpun, "Reinventing Thailand: Thaksin and His Foreign Policy"
English | 2010 | ISBN: 9814279196 | PDF | pages: 391 | 18.7 mb
From 2001 to 2006, Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra transformed Thailand's international role from one of obscurity into a kind of regional hegemon. Thaksin's diplomatic ambitions were reflected in his myriad of grandiose foreign policy initiatives, designed to locate Thailand at the forefront of regional politics and reinstall the Thai sphere of influence over weaker neighbouring states. He abolished the traditional bending-with-the-wind foreign policy, revamped the Thai Foreign Ministry, and empowered Thai envoys through the CEO Ambassadors programme. But in this process, Thaksin was accused of exploiting foreign policy to enrich his business empire. Thaksin's reinvention of Thailand as an up-and-coming regional power was therefore tainted by conflicts of interest and the absence of ethical principles in the country's foreign policy.

Free Download Laura Jarnagin, "Portuguese and Luso-Asian Legacies in Southeast Asia, 1511-2011, Vol. 1: The Making of the Luso-Asian World: Intricacies of Engagement"
English | 2011 | ISBN: 9814345253 | PDF | pages: 357 | 5.0 mb
Five hundred years later, a conference held in Singapore brought together a large group of scholars from widely different national, academic and disciplinary contexts, to analyse and discuss the intricate consequences of Portuguese interactions in Asia over the longue durée. The result of these discussions is a stimulating set of case studies that, as a rule, combine original archival and/or field research with innovative historiographical perspectives. Luso-Asian communities, real and imagined, and Luso-Asian heritage, material and symbolic, are studied with depth and insight. The range of thematic, chronological and geographic areas covered in these proceeding is truly remarkable, showing not only the extraordinary relevance of revisiting Luso-Asian interactions in the longer term, but also the surprising dynamism within an area of studies which seemed on the verge of exhaustion. After all, archives from all over the world, from Rio de Janeiro to London, from Lisbon to Rome, and from Goa to Macao, might still hold some secrets on the subject of Luso-Asian relations, when duly explored by resourceful scholars.
