    Road of Stars and Flame

    “If it is meant to be, all roads will lead you there. You get to decide which one you walk.” In a world where a woman’s life is decided for her, seventeen-year-old Clia craves more freedom than her seaside village can offer. When she’s invited to serve the Oracle at the Temple of Delphi, Clia realizes that the terrible headaches which plague her every summer can provide another path. Desperate to escape a suffocating future, she leaps at the chance to join the priestesses, only understanding how much—and who—she’s giving up when it’s too late. At the temple, Clia is trained to channel the blazes in her vision that precede her headaches. The priestesses use the flames to see the future, but Clia fails to find the threads of fate the others follow. Instead, she sees something the priestesses cannot. A warning. Dangers lurk outside and within the temple walls, and the more Clia uncovers about her past and her future, the more she risks. To strike back against the forces determined to overthrow the Oracle, Clia must fight to wield the fire in her eyes and trust the stars to lead her. Read more

    Ground Improvement by Deep Vibratory Methods

    Vibro compaction and vibro stone columns are the two dynamic methods of soil improvement most commonly used worldwide. These methods have been developed over almost eighty years and are now of unrivalled importance as modern foundation measures. Vibro compaction works on granular soils by densification, and vibro stone columns are used to displace and reinforce fine-grained and cohesive soils by introducing inert material. This second edition includes also a chapter on vibro concrete columns constructed with almost identical depth vibrators. These small diameter concrete piles are increasingly used as ground improvement methods for moderately loaded large spread foundations, although the original soil characteristics are only marginally improved. This practical guide for professional geotechnical engineers and graduate students systematically covers the theoretical basis and design principles behind the methods, the equipment used during their execution, and state of the art procedures for quality assurance and data acquisition. All the chapters are updated in line with recent developments and improvements in the methods and equipment. Fresh case studies from around the world illustrate the wide range of possible applications. The book concludes with variations to methods, evaluates the economic and environmental benefits of the methods, and gives contractual guidance.
