Java Programming for Engineers

Java Programming for Engineers

While teaching Java programming at Minnesota State University the authors noticed that engineering students were enrolling in Java programming courses in order to obtain basic programming skills but there were no Java books suitable for courses intended for engineers. They realized the need for a comprehensive Java programming tutorial that offers basic programming skills that can be applied in the field of engineering. With this in mind the authors developed Java Programming for Engineers in order to meet the needs of both engineers and engineering students. The text uses the personal computer as a development platform and assumes no prior programming experience or knowledge. The only skills expected of the reader are basic keyboarding and user-level familiarity with the PC. Topics covered range from mathematical expressions to linear systems to engineering graphics. Chapters on problem solving skills and the designing of engineering applications walk readers through real word problems they might encounter. Divided into two parts Part 1 is a description of the Java language of the fundamentals of object orientation input and output operations and error handling. Part 2 is about Java programming for engineers. It starts with computer number systems fixed- and variable-precision numeric data mathematical programming in Java as could be of interest to engineers and concludes with an overview of Java Graphics.

Cutoffs for Dams

Cutoffs for Dams

ICOLD Bulletin 150 Cutoffs for Dams discusses foundation treatment methods using cutoff-type barriers. High emphasis is given to alluvial deposits throughout this document; however different materials may require cutoff. The construction of cutoffs has made significant advances mainly through the development of more powerful machinery for drilling and excavation but also through the introduction of new concepts and techniques such as jet grouting and deep soil mixing. The following types of cutoffs are presented in this Bulletin: - Diaphragm walls- Vib walls- Pile walls- Superimposed concreted galleries- Jet grouting- Deep mixing These methods are described and the practical application of each method is illustrated by selected case histories. These case histories also demonstrate how certain difficulties specific to a particular dam site have been dealt with. The performance of cutoffs should be monitored so that their efficiency in reducing flow and piezometric head can be evaluated. Piezometers installed in the foundation upstream and downstream of the cutoff are needed to meet this objective.
