Engineering Mechanics 3
Dynamics is the third volume of a three-volume textbook on Engineering Mechanics. It was written with the intention of presenting to engineering students the basic concepts and principles of mechanics in as simple a form as the subject allows. A second objective of this book is to guide the students in their efforts to solve problems in mechanics in a systematic manner. The simple approach to the theory of mechanics allows for the different educational backgrounds of the students. Another aim of this book is to provide engineering students as well as practising engineers with a basis to help them bridge the gaps between undergraduate studies, advanced courses on mechanics and practical engineering problems. The book contains numerous examples and their solutions. Emphasis is placed upon student participation in solving the problems. The contents of the book correspond to the topics normally covered in courses on basic engineering mechanics at universities and colleges. Volume 1 deals with Statics; Volume 2 contains Mechanics of Materials.
Engineering Mechanics 2
Now in its second English edition, Mechanics of Materials is the second volume of a three-volume textbook series on Engineering Mechanics.

Law Versus Power
The author, founder and General Secretary of the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights (ECCHR), chronicles work and related events surrounding campaigns against several perpetrators of human rights violations around the world.
Context in Literary and Cultural Studies
Context in Literary and Cultural Studies is an interdisciplinary volume that deals with the challenges of studying works of art and literature in their historical context today. The relationship between artworks and context has long been a central concern for aesthetic and cultural disciplines, and the question of context has been asked anew in all eras. Developments in contemporary culture and technology, as well as new theoretical and methodological orientations in the humanities, once again prompt us to rethink context in literary and cultural studies. This volume takes up that challenge. Introducing readers to new developments in literary and cultural theory, Context in Literary and Cult...

Engineering Mechanics 1
Statics is the first volume of a three-volume textbook on Engineering Mechanics. The authors, using a time-honoured straightforward and flexible approach, present the basic concepts and principles of mechanics in the clearest and simplest form possible to advanced undergraduate engineering students of various disciplines and different educational backgrounds. An important objective of this book is to develop problem solving skills in a systematic manner. Another aim of this volume is to provide engineering students as well as practising engineers with a solid foundation to help them bridge the gap between undergraduate studies on the one hand and advanced courses on mechanics and/or practica...
Moles in the Eagle's Nest
Eric Lovejoy's adventure begins at age 11, during World War II in 1945, with the death of his older brother, Wilbur, during a skirmish outside Budingen, Germany. A quarter of a century later, Eric, now an army chaplain stationed in Budingen, along with two German veterans, an American reporter, and a German-American businessman look into the matter. A bumbling Russian spy lingers in the background. When one of the German veterans reveals a new and dangerous predicament involving his sister, the group focus changes direction in an attempt to rescue her. The trail leads to Adolf Hitler's Obersalzberg fortress in Berchtesgaden, Germany. A series of events and mishaps makes Eric a captive. Eric faces danger and brainwashing at the hands of a secret organization, whose high ideals and harsh methods threaten to destroy his hitherto unexamined religious beliefs. Threatened with death if he does not become a willing member, he struggles to decide whether to join their cause and work on their behalf or try to escape. His choice alters a portion of German history.
Direct and Large-Eddy Simulation X
This book addresses nearly all aspects of the state of the art in LES & DNS of turbulent flows, ranging from flows in biological systems and the environment to external aerodynamics, domestic and centralized energy production, combustion, propulsion as well as applications of industrial interest. Following the advances in increased computational power and efficiency, several contributions are devoted to LES & DNS of challenging applications, mainly in the area of turbomachinery, including flame modeling, combustion processes and aeroacoustics. The book includes work presented at the tenth Workshop on 'Direct and Large-Eddy Simulation' (DLES-10), which was hosted in Cyprus by the University of Cyprus, from May 27 to 29, 2015. The goal of the workshop was to establish a state of the art in DNS, LES and related techniques for the computation and modeling of turbulent and transitional flows. The book is of interest to scientists and engineers, both in the early stages of their career and at a more senior level.
His Father's House
In 1973, while checking family papers, Rob Kirkman, a law professor, finds the photo of a woman which his father took from a dying German soldier in World War I. Curious, he travels to East Germany, meets the woman and becomes involved in a scheme to smuggle Bibles into East Germany.
A Bottomless Grave
Twenty-one rare, seldom-anthologized stories include "A Bottomless Grave" by Ambrose Bierce, "The Ship that Saw a Ghost" by Frank Norris, Guy de Maupassant's "The Tomb," other gems of the genre.
