Computer Methods and Recent Advances in Geomechanics contains the proceedings (abstracts book 472 pages + full paper USB-drive 2052 pages) of the 14th International Conference of the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (Kyoto, Japan, 22-25 September, 2014). The contributions cover computer methods, material modeling and testing, applications to a wide range of geomechanical issues, and recent advances in various areas that may not necessarily involve computer methods, including: - Development and usage of new materials; - Constitutive modeling of materials including deformation, damage and failure; - Verification of existing and new constitutive models; - Micro-macro correlations of material response including non-destructive testing; - New techniques for material and site characterization; - Computer-aided engineering and expert system; - Innovative construction using new materials and computer methods; - Design and rehabilitation of infrastructure; - Use of system and optimization procedures, and - Remote sensing. Computer Methods and Recent Advances in Geomechanics will be of interest to researchers and engineers involved in geotechnical mechanics and geo-engineering.

The last decades have shown a remarkable increase in the number of heavy rains, typhoons and earthquakes. These natural phenomena are the main causes for geohazards. As a result the mitigation of geohazards has become a major research topic in geotechnical engineering, and in recent years simulation-based predictions and monitoring tools have been developed to enquire the mechanisms underlying geohazards. This book is a comprehensive overview of these developments, and will be of interest to engineers, researchers, students in Civil and Environmental Engineering.

This book presents a comprehensive overview of functional food science and its growing importance in health research. The field addresses how specific food derived compounds influence biological processes that relate to major lifestyle related diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disorders, and metabolic syndrome.The content covers a wide range of themes that include molecular mechanisms, analytical methods, clinical insights, and newly emerging scientific concepts. Topics such as metabolomics, imaging mass spectrometry, non coding RNA pathways, brain–gut interactions, chrononutrition, and the hormesis effect help readers understand how functional food factors work within the body. The book also examines practical applications, disease focused research, and potential side effects of food derived bioactive substances.Structured into eight parts, the volume offers reflections from senior scientists, detailed thematic chapters, and broad discussions that connect basic research with applied outcomes. It is suitable for academic researchers, industry specialists who develop functional food products, and graduate students who study food functionality.
