The fusion of algebra, analysis and geometry, and their application to real world problems, have been dominant themes underlying mathematics for over a century. Geometric algebras, introduced and classified by Clifford in the late 19th century, have played a prominent role in this effort, as seen in the mathematical work of Cartan, Brauer, Weyl, Chevelley, Atiyah, and Bott, and in applications to physics in the work of Pauli, Dirac and others. One of the most important applications of geometric algebras to geometry is to the representation of groups of Euclidean and Minkowski rotations. This aspect and its direct relation to robotics and vision will be discussed in several chapters of this m...
As urban areas keep growing, water infrastructure ages, and the requirements on environmental protection become more rigorous, there is a continual need for upgrading water pollution control facilities and restoring degraded urban waters. Such issues are addressed in this book by focusing on five major topics: (a) Upgrading stormwater management facilities, (b) Retrofitting / upgrading combined sewer overflow (CSO) facilities, (c) Optimising/upgrading sewage treatment plant performance, (d) Urban stream restoration, and (e) Challenges in restoring urban environment. Each chapter contains some overview papers followed by research or case study papers. Besides presentations of new approaches a...
Elbilen - planeten och klimatets räddning! Att fossilbränsledrivna fordon är stora klimatbovar vet vi. Lösningen bör därmed vara enkel - vi ersätter bensin- och dieselbilar med en elektrisk motsvarighet och sedan är problemet ur världen. Eller? I "Elbilen och jakten på metallerna" granskar Arne Müller vad som händer bakom kulisserna i våra snabbast växande hållbarhetsindustrier. För att tillverka batterier till elbilar krävs ämnen som kobolt, litium och grafit - dessutom krävs andra ovanliga metaller till vår sol- och vindkraft. Vad händer när efterfrågan blir allt större? Müller ställer frågor angående jordens resurser, seriositeten hos gruvaktörerna och de möj...
