Liquid Film Coating

This multi-authored volume provides a comprehensive and in-depth account of the highly interdisciplinary science and technology of liquid film coating. The book covers fundamental principles from a wide range of scientific disciplines, including fluid mechanics aand transport phenomena, capillary hydrodynamics, surface and colloid science. The authors, all acknowledged eperts in their fields, represent a balance between industrial and academic points of view. Throughout the text, many case studies illustrate how scientific principles together with advanced experimental and theoretical methods are applied to develop and optimize manufacturing processes of eve increasing sophiatication and efficiency. In the first part of the book, the authors systematically recount the underlying physical principles and important material properties. The second part of the book gives a comprehensive overview of the most advanced experimental, mathematical and computational methods available today to investigate coating processes. The third part provides an overview and critical literature review for all major classes of liquid film coating processes of industrial importance.

Art in Rome in the Eighteenth Century

  • Categories: Art

"Caught between the Theatricality of the Baroque and the acute sensibility of Romanticism, art in Rome in the eighteenth century has long been a neglected area of study." "The grand scale and spectacular diversity of the period are comprehensively captured for the first time in this definitive history of the period, produced to accompany a major U.S. exhibition organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art and The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and documenting the work of over 150 artists. With over 450 illustrations, and texts by an outstanding array of experts from around the world, Art in Rome in the Eighteenth Century provides a massively authoritative survey of a fascinating era."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The Roots of Nationalism

This collection brings together scholars from a wide range of disciplines to offer perspectives on national identity formation in various European contexts between 1600 and 1815. Contributors challenge the dichotomy between modernists and traditionalists in nationalism studies through an emphasis on continuity rather than ruptures in the shaping of European nations in the period, while also offering an overview of current debates in the field and case studies on a number of topics, including literature, historiography, and cartography.

Computational Paralinguistics

This book presents the methods, tools and techniques that are currently being used to recognise (automatically) the affect, emotion, personality and everything else beyond linguistics (‘paralinguistics’) expressed by or embedded in human speech and language. It is the first book to provide such a systematic survey of paralinguistics in speech and language processing. The technology described has evolved mainly from automatic speech and speaker recognition and processing, but also takes into account recent developments within speech signal processing, machine intelligence and data mining. Moreover, the book offers a hands-on approach by integrating actual data sets, software, and open-sou...

Mechanics of Musical Instruments

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 1995
  • -
  • Publisher: Springer

The study of the functioning of musical instruments requires knowledge of various branches of mechanics, such as linear and nonlinear vibrations and radiation of strings, plates, bars, membranes, air columns, including the self-sustained oscillations of such systems and fluid mechanics. The aim of this book is to give a systematic account of these phenomena in the context of musical instruments, insisting more on the physical and mathematical methods used to obtain simplified models than on details of the behaviour of particular instruments or specific models.

The seventh release in an ambitious series of documentary anthologies published under the auspices of MoMA's International Program, this volume offers Anglophone readers an excellent introduction to the work of Mário Pedrosa (1900-81), one of Brazil's most influential art critics and social commentators. Organized in eight thematic groupings, the well-chosen, elegantly translated texts--most of which originally appeared in Brazilian newspapers--range in date from 1927 to 1981 and draw from Pedrosa's extensive writings on art, architecture, the role of criticism and the critic, and the politics of culture and from his professional and personal correspondence. Informative brief essays by critics and scholars, including some who knew and collaborated with Pedrosa, introduce the volume as a whole and preface each of the eight sections. Pedrosa's life and career are detailed in a chronology created by his grandson. This long-overdue volume makes an important contribution to the literature of modernism. -- Choice.
