Handbook on Tunnels and Underground Works
This book set provides a new, global, updated, thorough, clear, and practical risk-based approach to tunnelling design and construction methods, and discusses detailed examples of solutions applied to relevant case histories. It is organized in three sequential and integrated volumes: Volume 1: Concept – Basic Principles of Design Volume 2: Construction – Methods, Equipment, Tools and Materials Volume 3: Case Histories and Best Practices This book covers all aspects of tunnelling, giving useful and practical information about design (Vol. 1), construction (Vol. 2), and best practices (Vol. 3). It provides the following features and benefits: updated vision on tunnelling design, tools, ma...
Non-volcanic Rifting of Continental Margins
Non-continental margins lack thick lavas that are generated as continental crust thins immediately prior to the onset of seafloor spreading. They may form up to 30 per cent of passive margins around the world. This volume contains papers examining an active margin, fossil margins that border present day oceans, and remnants of margins exposed today in the Alps. The papers present evidence across a range of scales, from individual mineral grains, through borelide cores and outcrop, to whole margins at the crustal scale.
Introduction to Extended Reality (XR) Technologies
This book is a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals and applications of extended reality (XR) with practical insights and real-world examples. Introduction to Extended Reality (XR) Technologies is a thorough guide to understanding the fundamentals, concepts, and key aspects of XR technology, including augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR). The book explores how extended reality blends the physical and virtual worlds, transforming industries such as education, healthcare, and entertainment. Each chapter covers key aspects, from foundational principles to practical applications, with real-world examples illustrating the technologies’ potential. By address...

Extended Reality
This two-volume set LNCS 14218 and LNCS 14219 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Extended Reality, XR Salento 2023, held in Lecce, Italy, during September 6-9, 2023. The 60 full papers presented together with 11 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 97 submissions. They cover a wide range of many different research topics such as: eXtended reality; digital twin; artificial intelligence; user experience in eXtended reality; virtual reality for neurofeedback, biofeedback and emotion recognition; eXtended reality in education; eXtended reality and metaverse in cultural heritage; eXtended reality in health and medicine; and eXtended reality in industrial field.
Handbook Of Developmental Psychiatry
Mental disorders in children and adolescents have gained prominence in recent years, and clinicians in the field are increasingly on the lookout for new methods in diagnosis and treatment. In the last 25 years, the Stanford Division of Child Psychiatry has become one of the premier clinical, research, and educational facilities in child and adolescent psychiatry, both nationally and internationally. Its faculty has distinguished itself in several key domains of psychopathology in both basic and clinical research.This handbook provides a detailed description of unique diagnostic and treatment approaches to mental disorders in the Stanford Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. Most of t...
The Western Alps, from Rift to Passive Margin to Orogenic Belt
Annotation The objective of the book is to provide an updated synthesis of the evolution of the Alpine fold belt hitherto not available in English. The overall concept is to build on classical Alpine geological studies made since the start of the 19thcentury by integrating this work with modern results obtained systematically on mid ocean ridges and passive margins worldwide over the past 50 years using new marine geological and geophysical technologies. The book thus provides an integrated overview of the evolution of the Alps from rift to passive margin to the present fold belt over a time span of 300my. * an integrated multidisciplinary synthesis of the evolution of the Alps from rift to passive margin to foldbelt. * 175 figures, structural maps and cross sections. * an index of localities referred to in the fext and figures. * a brief summary of the history and development of ideas concerning the evolution of fold belts and passive margins since the 19th century. * provides basis for further enquire and research * provides wider context relevant to marine and oil industry geoscientists.
Mobility and pastoralism in the Egyptian Western Desert. Steinplätze in the Holocene regional settlement patterns
This volume presents the results of a long study begun in 2004 within the framework of the Archaeological Mission in the Farafra Oasis of Egypt directed by Barbara Barich and Giulio Lucarini, of the Sapienza University of Rome (now under the auspices of ISMEO). The book focuses on the features known as “Steinplatz-type hearths” and their role in the settlement patterns of the human groups living in the Egyptian Western Desert during the middle and late Holocene. Steinplätze are concentrations of burned and fire-cracked stones that vary in shape and size, and have often been slightly elevated above the present ground level by post-depositional erosion processes. Occurring both as isolate...
The Sahara
This collection examines the Sahara holistically from the earliest (prehistoric) times through the ‘historical’ period to the present and with political direction into the future. The contributions cover palaeoclimatology, history, archaeology (cultural heritage), social anthropology, sociology, politics and international affairs. Structured chronologically, the volume can almost be read as a narrative of the Sahara from the earliest times to the present, i.e. from the past climates of the Sahara in prehistoric times to the current ‘war on terror’ and its implications for the peoples of the Sahara. Importantly, the collection shows how the region must be approached ‘holistically’...
