This title takes you on a pilgrimage from the mountain's foot to its highest slopes, introducing along the way geologists, priests and an expedition in search of the Ark's remains.
Mechanical Design Engineering Handbook, Third Edition discusses the mechanical engineering skills that are essential to power generation, production, and transportation. Machine elements such as bearings, shafts, gears, belts, chains, clutches and belts represent fundamental building blocks for a wide range of technology applications. The aim of this handbook is to present an overview of the design process and to introduce the technology and selection of specific machine elements that are fundamental to a wide range of mechanical engineering design applications. This book includes detailed worked examples for the design and application of machine elements and over 600 images, with line drawi...
Organometallic chemistry is an interdisciplinary science which continues to grow at a rapid pace. Although there is continued interest in synthetic and structural studies the last decade has seen a growing interest in the potential of organometallic chemistry to provide answers to problems in catalysis synthetic organic chemistry and also in the development of new materials. This Specialist Periodical Report aims to reflect these current interests reviewing progress in theoretical organometallic chemistry, main group chemistry, the lanthanides and all aspects of transition metal chemistry. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage of progress in the major ...
Introduction to Optimum Design, Fifth Edition is the most widely used textbook in engineering optimization and optimum design courses. It is intended for use in a first course on engineering design and optimization at the undergraduate or graduate level within engineering departments of all disciplines, but primarily within mechanical, aerospace and civil engineering. The basic approach of the text presents an organized approach to engineering design optimization in a rigorous yet simplified manner, illustrating various concepts and procedures with simple examples and demonstrating their applicability to engineering design problems. Formulation of a design problem as an optimization problem ...
This book purports to provide the latest information on cutting-edge research concerning inflammation, its fundamentals including the direct and indirect determinants, besides the advanced management protocols employed in clinical practice. This volume of the book widens the horizon delving deeper to understand the molecular aspects of inflammation such as role of memory T cells, cytokines, concept of self-tolerance and autoimmunity.
Whose City is That? shows that Istanbul is produced not only by strong and systematic efforts, corporate influences and/or marketing activities, but also by individual contributions and coincidences. As such, the primary purpose of this book is to find the answer of to whom Istanbul does belong, presenting the reader with the richness of human experience and the practice of everyday life. The chapters in this book are therefore focused on the physical and economic dimensions, as well as the imaginary, fictional and hyper-real dimensions, expressing the concern of bringing the real and imaginary borders of the city together. The book provides an understanding that for each inhabitant there is...
