Features: This book is one of the 21 volumes published separately from the Comprehensive Encyclopedia of Chinese Water Conservancy. It covers five disciplines: Engineering Mechanics, Rock Mechanics, Soil Mechanics, Engineering Structures, and Engineering Materials. Based on the Comprehensive Encyclopedia of Chinese Water Conservancy, this volume has removed and merged some outdated or no longer used entries, supplemented several entries to ensure comprehensive coverage of the relevant disciplines, and added numerous entries reflecting new theories, methods, knowledge, technologies, standards, and materials. Most of the retained entries from the previous version have been revised and supplemented, with some undergoing major revisions to reflect the latest developments in the disciplines and the characteristics of the water conservancy industry. This book is available for reference by researchers engaged in water conservancy and hydropower engineering design, construction, engineering structures, and materials, as well as faculty and students of relevant disciplines in colleges and universities. It can also serve as a resource for a broad readership interested in the water conservancy sector and seeking to understand knowledge in the five disciplines mentioned above.
