Nonwovens Science and Technology
Extensive background material for this course on nonwoven materials. Major topics include fibers, formation, finishing and bonding, and geotextiles. Plenty of text, figures, tables and statistics - as much as any textbook. Course: Textile Science 526. Instructor: Kermit Duckett, University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

Structures I
A collection of 41 lectures on basic structural analysis. Starts with a basic overview (what is a structure), then follows up with forces, free body diagrams and simple beam theory. Good text, lots of figures, fully worked example problems. A great site!
