Geotextiles: From Design to Applications presents valuable information on the high performance fabrics used in soil separation, drainage, filtration, reinforcement, and cushioning. These polymeric materials offer solutions for geoengineering and other civil engineering specialties due to their advanced physical, mechanical, hydraulic, and endurance properties. This important book offers comprehensive coverage of the manufacture, functions, properties, designs, and applications of geotextil...

The Secession Talks is a collection of artist talks on exhibitions that took place at the Secession from 2011 to 2022. They contextualize the exhibition history of the Secession and allow for a new consideration and evaluation of the program. As a collection, these conversations between artists and well-known art critics, art historians, curators, and artist colleagues form a unique interface between artistic work and art education.

Following the structure of previous editions, Volume 1 of this Sixth Edition proceeds through four individual chapters on geosynthetics, geotextiles, geogrids and geonets. Volume 2 continues with geomembranes, geosynthetic clay liners, geofoam and geocomposites. The two volumes must accompany one another. All are polymeric materials used for myriad applications in geotechnical, geoenvironmental, transportation, hydraulic and private development applications. The technology has become a wor...
