Book description
- Real books (the hold-in-your-hand, turn-the-actual-page books) are very important to me and I have a large personal home library. I reread my books often and some of my favorites stem from many years ago, so this article on book repairs is very helpful should one of my old books become damaged and in need of repair.

Description
Compared with other mature engineering disciplines, fracture mechanics of concrete is still a developing field with extensive new research and development. In recent years many different models and applications have been proposed for crack analysis; the author assesses these in turn, identifying their limitations and offering a detailed treatment of those which have been proved to be robust by comprehensive use.
After introducing stress singularity in numerical modelling and some basic modelling techniques, the Extended Fictitious Crack Model (EFCM) for multiple-crack analysis is explained with numerical application examples. This theoretical model is then applied to study two important issues in fracture mechanics - crack interaction and localization, and fracture modes and maximum loads. The EFCM is then reformulated to include the shear transfer mechanism on crack surfaces and the method is used to study experimental problems.
With a carefully balanced mixture of theory, experiment and application, Crack Analysis in Structural Concrete is an important contribution to this fast-developing field of structural analysis in concrete.

Zen and the art of archery

space, an inkwell into all the waves in the ocean, the tip of a
brush into the mountain Sumeru itself ….'

Sumeru Art Book Cracker
WHEN the demonstration of the art of archery by a Japanese master was announced as an event that the Museum Rietberg was organising in the Noble Park within which it is located, conversation turned somewhat naturally to that classic work, Zen in the Art of Archery. I had heard of it, but everyone around seemed to have read it. Even though I was not to stay long enough in Zurich to be able to witness the event, my curiosity was greatly aroused. A German copy of the book, the language in which Eugen Herrigel, a German professor, originally wrote it some 60 years ago, was not difficult to procure, and I started poring over it, but without being able to shake off the uneasy feeling that the exact import of some of the terse thoughts it contained, some technical terms, was escaping me. But then a friend located an English translation for me, and things became much simpler. It is a slim volume, making for exciting reading, but challenging at the same time in its own manner, brushing now against meditative practice, now engaging with the struggles that we wage in our daily lives.
