In November, Knovel launched My Knovel, a personal space where users can manage and save content of all types. New features include:

My Bookshelf – Save frequently used titles and organize them into folders users create

My Saved Content – Save and organize content into the folders users create

My Saved Searches – Save search queries and re-execute them with one click

The personalization features available with My Knovel continue to expand. Clip to Knovel gives you the ability to save information from all over the Web to your My Knovel account. Clip to Knovel is currently available for preview in Knovel Lab. Check it out and let us know what you think. Enter Knovel Lab

If you are not currently signed up for My Knovel, please contact support@knovel.com. User registration is quick, easy and free.

Engineers at Atlanta-based Southern Company have started turning to Knovel in large numbers to help solve complex problems faster and increase the efficiency of their technical decisions. Southern Company enhanced their Knovel subscription by including Knovel Math, a new product that delivers engineering reference content directly into the Mathcad work environment.

Southern Company’s Engineering and Construction Services organization has a strong core of internal expertise – including engineering, procurement and construction capabilities – that is unique among integrated utilities. Considering the importance of trustworthy technical information to their projects, Knovel is natural fit.

“Innovation, speed and quality are fundamental elements of the expertise our engineers bring to every project, so we continually look for the best resources available to increase efficiency and maintain a competitive advantage in terms of cost and productivity. Knovel’s content is directly related to our business, so our engineers can quickly find relevant information and make efficient technology decisions. Furthermore, the interactive tables are valuable because we can incorporate them directly into reports. This is otherwise a tedious, manual process.” Carl Toner, project manager, Engineering and Construction Services, Southern Company.

We welcome Southern Company to the ranks of over 600 companies and Universities that depend on Knovel.

With contributions from leading publishers including Springer, Smithers-Rapra, Elsevier, World Scientific, McGraw-Hill and Woodhead, this subject area helps support engineers in their efforts to bring to market some of the most innovative materials being used today.

Over the last few months, you may have noticed a series of enhancements that make searching easier and new features like GET Search that take the guesswork out of pinpointing numerical data. We are building on the upgrades released in August and September to help Knovel users find trusted technical information more easily – and to do it faster. The result is a new search interface look and feel with simplified navigation, an improved browsing experience, results display pages and a new ‘recent searches’ feature to help users access and retrieve data quicker.

To learn more and get a walkthrough of all the new features now on Knovel, we invite you to join us for a free online webinar. We’ll be hosting a series of walkthrough sessions throughout October.

When designing a stage for a theater or concert hall, the sky is the limit- structural and mechanical engineering services can range from the common proscenium or ‘picture frame’ stage found in any high school auditorium to highly complex portable, mechanized structures built to support hundreds of thousands of concertgoers.

In this issue, our team  takes several considerations into account, including total weight for lights and equipment, load on cables and accomodating the necessary stage hands. Read along as Knovel Math is put to work designing a  stage platform. [ READ MORE ]
