Ashlar
This volume focusses on ashlar masonry, probably the most elaborate construction technique of the Eastern Mediterranean Bronze Age, from a cross-regional perspective. The building practices and the uses of cutstone components and masonries in Egypt, Syria, the Aegean, Anatolia, Cyprus and the Levant in the 3rd and 2nd millennium BC are examined through a series of case studies and topical essays. The topics addressed include the terminology of ashlar building components and the typologies of its masonries, technical studies on the procurement, dressing, tool kits and construction techniques pertaining to cut stone, investigations into the place of ashlar in inter-regional exchanges and craft dissemination, the extent and signifi cance of the use of cut stone within the communities and regions, and the visual eff ects, social meanings, and symbolic and ideological values of ashlar.
Musée L. Visitors' Guide
The Musée L is now housed in the former Library of Science and Technology, one of the most iconic buildings in Louvain-la-Neuve. This historic edifice has thus been given a new lease of life, and UCL can showcase its reserves, its collections, its expertise and its educational and museum activities better than ever before. This will open up the university museum to an even wider public ? locally, regionally and worldwide. The Musée L's exceptionally rich and diverse permanent collections will invite contemplation, amaze, prompt questions, arouse emotion and encourage visitors to share their 'Musée L experience? with others.0This guide will unveil and explain the museum?s treasures, helping you to navigate your way from room to room and from one marvellous discovery to the next.
25 Dialogues au Musée de Louvain-la-Neuve
Dialogue reste le maître-mot d'une aventure muséale hors du commun initiée voici tout juste vingt-cinq ans dans une ville elle aussi extraordinaire : Louvain-la-Neuve. Le Musée du Dialogue affiche des collections aussi riches que déconcertantes, un enthousiasme communicatif, un entourage de sympathisants curieux ou passionnés, des projets impressionnants. Ce livre offre donc un bouquet de vingt-cinq dialogues d'œuvres mises ici deux à deux, bout à bout, corps à corps. Et comme la seule image d'une œuvre ne rend pas tout à fait compte des vibrations qui l'entourent, les éditeurs ont convoqué autour d'elles des textes émanant d'amis, d'auteurs célèbres ou d'anonymes. Textes-fées penchés sur la matière féconde, textes-brassées de cadeaux, textes-pluies de mots. Pour tous ceux en qui la beauté passe l'œil pour résonner dans les plis de la chair et de la mémoire.
Le Bestiaire du musée de Louvain-la-Neuve
Ce bestiaire étonnant fait dialoguer l'animal et l’être humain, en promenant le lecteur à travers la faune et l’histoire de l’art. L’animal a pris une place considérable dans l’étude scientifique. Aujourd’hui, il ne cesse pas de nous étonner.

Structural Health Monitoring 2019
This two-volume book set contains over 425 papers. While offering investigations into how sensors, networks, and signaling systems are used in dozens of civil and military applications, a special feature of this book is its exploration of how to enable intelligent life-cycle health management for the industrial internet of things. It demonstrates how machine-learning and stochastic methods add value to SHM data by taking into account changing environments and conditional events. It offers new insights on interactions between SHM data and big data for improving the safety and integrity of monitored structures. Information is also presented on how SHM sensing interfaces with smart and functional materials operating in dynamic systems. A large number of SHM applications are explained, including additive manufacturing, advanced composites, actuators, corrosion, machinery, power plants, piping, robotics, underground infrastructure, and many more.Chapters in the book are edited presentations from a September 2019 Workshop at Stanford University co-sponsored by the U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research and the Office of Naval Research.
Structural Health Monitoring
This book is organized around the various sensing techniques used to achieve structural health monitoring. Its main focus is on sensors, signal and data reduction methods and inverse techniques, which enable the identification of the physical parameters, affected by the presence of the damage, on which a diagnostic is established. Structural Health Monitoring is not oriented by the type of applications or linked to special classes of problems, but rather presents broader families of techniques: vibration and modal analysis; optical fibre sensing; acousto-ultrasonics, using piezoelectric transducers; and electric and electromagnetic techniques. Each chapter has been written by specialists in the subject area who possess a broad range of practical experience. The book will be accessible to students and those new to the field, but the exhaustive overview of present research and development, as well as the numerous references provided, also make it required reading for experienced researchers and engineers.
