Pages : 231
Book Description
Colton I'd rather do anything than come back to Bent Creek, the town that took everything from me. But I can't ignore a text from my childhood best friend, Sam, asking for help. When I get there, she acts as if everything is fine--work is good and she's dating someone. I'm not about to stick around to watch. I've harbored a crush on her since I was twelve. Until I find out that she really does need help. And my brothers do too. If there’s one thing I’d never do, it’s abandon the people I love when they need me the most. Samantha I don't know what I was thinking, sending that text to Colt. I thought I could handle everything, but I'm in over my head at work. Colt was the only person I could think of that might be able to help. But now he's here, and seeing him again isn't what I expected. He's grown up from that gangly kid I used to hang out with, and it's hard to look away. I can't have those feelings for my best friend, not if I want to keep our friendship. When things get even worse at work, Colt's the one who's there. And spending more time with him is making my attraction to him impossible to ignore.

Landslides and Engineered Slopes. Experience, Theory and Practice
Author: Stefano Aversa
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1315349205
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 3200
Book Description
Landslides and Engineered Slopes. Experience, Theory and Practice contains the invited lectures and all papers presented at the 12th International Symposium on Landslides, (Naples, Italy, 12-19 June 2016). The book aims to emphasize the relationship between landslides and other natural hazards. Hence, three of the main sessions focus on Volcanic-induced landslides, Earthquake-induced landslides and Weather-induced landslides respectively, while the fourth main session deals with Human-induced landslides. Some papers presented in a special session devoted to "Subareal and submarine landslide processes and hazard” and in a “Young Session” complete the books. Landslides and Engineered Slopes. Experience, Theory and Practice underlines the importance of the classic approach of modern science, which moves from experience to theory, as the basic instrument to study landslides. Experience is the key to understand the natural phenomena focusing on all the factors that play a major role. Theory is the instrument to manage the data provided by experience following a mathematical approach; this allows not only to clarify the nature and the deep causes of phenomena but mostly, to predict future and, if required, manage similar events. Practical benefits from the results of theory to protect people and man-made works. Landslides and Engineered Slopes. Experience, Theory and Practice is useful to scientists and practitioners working in the areas of rock and soil mechanics, geotechnical engineering, engineering geology and geology.
