Human Systems Engineering and Design III
This book focuses on novel design and systems engineering approaches, including theories and best practices, for promoting a better integration of people and engineering systems. It covers a range of innovative topics related to: development of human-centered systems; interface design and human-computer interaction; usability and user experience; innovative materials in design and manufacturing; biomechanics and physical rehabilitation, as well as safety engineering and systems complexity. The book, which gathers selected papers presented at the 3rd International Conference on Human Systems Engineering and Design: Future Trends and Applications (IHSED 2020), held on September 22-24, 2020, at Juraj Dobrila University of Pula, in Pula, Croatia, provides researchers and practitioners with a snapshot of the state-of-the-art and current challenges in the field of human systems engineering and design.
Maya History and Religion
In this volume, a distinguished Maya scholar seeks to correlate data from colonial writings and observations of the modern Indian with archaeological information in order to extend and clarify the panorama of Maya culture.
Hydrology and the Management of Watersheds
This new edition is a major revision of the popular introductory reference on hydrology and watershed management principles, methods, and applications. The book's content and scope have been improved and condensed, with updated chapters on the management of forest, woodland, rangeland, agricultural urban, and mixed land use watersheds. Case studies and examples throughout the book show practical ways to use web sites and the Internet to acquire data, update methods and models, and apply the latest technologies to issues of land and water use and climate variability and change.
Soil and Sediment Remediation
Soil and Sediment Remediation discusses in detail a whole set of remediative technologies currently available to minimise their impact. Technologies for the treatment of soils and sediments in-situ (landfarming, bioscreens, bioventing, nutrient injection, phytoremediation) and ex-situ (landfarming, bio-heap treatment, soil suspension reactor) will be discussed. The microbiological, process technological and socio-economical aspects of these technologies will be addressed. Special attention will be given to novel biotechnological processes that utilise sulfur cycle conversions, e.g. sulfur and heavy metal removal from soils. Also the potential of phytoremediation will be highlighted. In addit...
Book of Abstracts of the 65th Annual Meeting of the European Federation of Animal Science
This Book of Abstracts is the main publication of the 65th Annual Meeting of the European Federation for Animal Science 2014 in Copenhagen, Denmark. It contains abstracts of the invited papers and contributed presentations. The meeting addressed subjects relating to science and innovation. Important problems were also discussed during the sessions of EAAP's nine Commissions: Animal Genetics, Animal Nutrition, Animal Management and Health, Animal Physiology, Cattle Production, Sheep and Goat Production, Pig Production, Horse Production and Livestock Farming Systems.
From Care to Action
Sir Martin Holdgate brings his unrivalled experience to the task of examining the world's progress towards a sustainable future, looking at developments since Caring for the Earth and the 1992 Earth Summit, and explaining what now needs to be done.
Environmental Transport Processes
A unique approach to the challenges of complex environmental systems Environmental Transport Processes, Second Edition provides much-needed guidance on mass transfer principles in environmental engineering. It focuses on working with uncontrolled conditions involving biological and physical systems, offering examples from diverse fields, including mass transport, kinetics, wastewater treatment, and unit processes. This new edition is fully revised and updated, incorporating modern approaches and practice problems at the end of chapters, making the Second Edition more concise, accessible, and easy to use. The book discusses the fundamentals of transport processes occurring in natural environm...
