A Memory Without Evidence
A Memory without Evidence ('Spomin brez dokazov') je skupnostna publikacija, v kateri so predstavljene pripovedi beguncev in ljudi na poti, ki so prečkali balkansko begunsko pot in jim je uspelo priti v Evropsko unijo. Publikacija, ki je nastala na podlagi skupnosntih delavnic in dialogov z razseljenimi skupnostmi, predstavlja zgodbe tistih, ki so ujetost za rezilno žico, minami in sistemskim nasiljem na balkanski begunski poti, zamenjali za ujetništvo v azilnem sistemu EU. Za mnoge, ki so sodelovali pri nastajanju publikacije, se boj za njihov obstoj, priznanje in svobodo ne konča, ko dosežejo varno zatočišče, temveč ostaja nedosežen cilj. Prispevki so razdeljeni na tri segmente: V zaporih in taboriščih; Rojeni v begunstvo in 4517 kilometrov pozneje. Vsak od njih ponuja kritičen, poetičen in poglobljen razmislek o različnih vprašanjih, povezanih zbegunstvom. Pobudnik skupnega projekta je bil fotograf in umetnik Jošt Franko, ki je publikacijo uredil skupaj s Ziedom Abdellaouijem.
Until I Become Home
Until I Become Home je skupnostna časopisna publikacija, ki se osredotoča na Balkansko begunsko pot in ljudi, ki jo poskušajo prečkati. Publikacija se z različnimi pisnimi in vizualnimi razmisleki osredotoča na pot, ki jo ljudje, ki bežijo pred vojno, konflikti, revščino ali preganjanjem opravijo, preden dosežejo svoje zatočišče v Evropski uniji. Življenja ljudi na Balkanski begunski poti, so pogosto potisnjena na obrobje in pogosto skrita v improviziranih taboriščih v gozdovih in zapuščenih stavbah. Vendar gozdovi vzdolž begunske poti ne skrivajo le beguncev temveč zakrivajo tudi institucionalizirano nasilje držav članic Evropske unije, ki uporabljajo brutalna sredstva in taktike, da bi ustavile migracije, hkrati pa vse bolj kriminalizirajo solidarnost lokalnega prebivalstva. Gosti gozdovi in globoke reke skrivajo tudi smrt mnogih, ki so se na poti izgubili, omagali, umrli od lakote in tistih, ki so na poti izgubili moč. Until I Become Home skozi izjave, poezijo, eseje, ustno zgodovino in vizualni arhiv poskuša odstirati pogled na zgodbe ljudi na poti, ki pogosto ostajajo izgubljena ali skrita.
Making the Most of Scarcity
"While water professionals have been advocating comprehensive water reforms for years and many countries have improved their water policies and institutions, some of the most politically sensitive elements of reform remain untouched. This report suggests that a series of factors are now emerging that represent a potential opportunity to break this impasse." "Making the Most of Scarcity will be of interest to readers working in the areas of agribusiness and markets, agriculture, urban and rural development, water supply, and water resources, as well as to those responsible for setting policies in the areas of environment, economics, and social protection."--BOOK JACKET.
Advances in Production Management Systems. Artificial Intelligence for Sustainable and Resilient Production Systems
The five-volume set IFIP AICT 630, 631, 632, 633, and 634 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International IFIP WG 5.7 Conference on Advances in Production Management Systems, APMS 2021, held in Nantes, France, in September 2021.* The 378 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 529 submissions. They discuss artificial intelligence techniques, decision aid and new and renewed paradigms for sustainable and resilient production systems at four-wall factory and value chain levels. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: Part I: artificial intelligence based optimization techniques for demand-driven manufacturing; hybrid approaches for production pl...
Solar Chimney Power Plants: Numerical Investigations and Experimental Validation
Solar Chimney Power Plants: Numerical Investigations and Experimental Validation summarizes the effect of the geometrical parameters of a solar chimney on the airflow behavior inside a solar chimney power plant. Chapters in this experimental handbook are presented in two parts with the goal of equipping readers with the information necessary to study and determine key factors which affect the performance of the solar chimney power plant. In the first part, the authors present a simulation developed by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling software ANSYS Fluent to model the airflow. The adopted CFD models include k-ɛ turbulence model, the DO radiation model and the convection hea...

Due to the nature of the conference with its focus on innovative ideas and developments, the book provides the ideal scientific and brings together very high-quality chapters written by eminent researchers from different disciplines, to discover the most recent developments in scientific research.
Advanced Intelligent Systems for Sustainable Development (AI2SD’2018)
This book gathers papers presented at the International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Systems for Sustainable Development (AI2SD-2018), which was held in Tangiers, Morocco on 12–14 July 2018. It highlights how advanced intelligent systems have successfully been used to develop tools and techniques for modeling, prediction and decision support in connection with the environment. Though chiefly intended for researchers and practitioners in advanced intelligent systems for sustainable development, the book will also be of interest to those working in environment and the Internet of Things, environment and big data analysis, summarization, prediction, remote sensing & geo-information, geophysics, marine and coastal environments, and sensor networks for environment services.
Applications of Solar Energy
This book focuses on solar-energy-based renewable energy systems and discusses the generation of electric power using solar photovoltaics, as well as some new techniques, such as solar towers, for both residential and commercial needs. Such systems have played an important role in the move towards low-emission and sustainable energy sources. The book covers a variety of applications, such as solar water heaters, solar air heaters, solar drying, nanoparticle-based direct absorption solar systems, solar volumetric receivers, solar-based cooling systems, solar-based food processing and cooking, efficient buildings using solar energy, and energy storage for solar thermal systems. Given its breadth of coverage, the book offers a valuable resource for researchers, students, and professionals alike.
