Radiation Risks in Perspective
Автор: Kenneth L.Mossman
Издательство: Taylor & Francis
Год издания: 2007

How people deal with risks is one of the most interesting aspects of the human condition. Perceptions of risk are complex, and people deal with risks in different, often irrational, ways. Young, healthy people consider themselves immortal and immune from long-term, degenerative diseases. As a consequence they engage in risky dietary and smoking behaviors that enhance the chances of such diseases in later life. People often react irrationally to safety measures and to environmental health threats. Some drivers and passengers continue to avoid using seat belts even though it is well known that car restraints are one of the cheapest and most effective ways to reduce injuries and fatalities.

Forensic Structural Engineering Handbook
Автор: Robert T.Ratay
Издательство: McGraw Hill
Год издания: 2000
isbn: 0070526672
Количество страниц: 688

Формат: PDF

Engineering investigation and determination of the causes of structural failures of buildings, bridges, and other constructed facilities, as well as rendering opinions and giving testimony in judicial proceedings, has become a field of professional practice of its own, often referred to as forensic structural engineering. Structural failure does not have to be a “catastrophic collapse,” it may be a “nonconformity with design expectations” or “deficient performance.” Collapse is usually attributed to inadequate strength and/or stability; deficient performance, or so-called serviceability problems, is usually the result of abnormal deterioration, excessive deformation, and signs of distress. In short, structural failure may be characterized as the unacceptable difference between intended and actual structural performance.

Industrial gas turbines: Performance and operability
Автор: A.M.Y.Razak
Издательство: Taylor & Francis Group, LLC
Год издания: 2007
isbn: 1845692055
Количество страниц: 624
Язык: english
Формат: PDF

Industrial gas turbines: Performance and operability explains important aspects of gas turbine performance such as performance deterioration, service life and engine emissions. Traditionally, gas turbine performance has been taught from a design perspective with insufficient attention paid to the operational issues of a specific site. Operators are not always sufficiently familiar with engine performance issues to resolve operational problems and optimise performance. Industrial gas turbines: Performance and operability discusses the key factors determining the performance of compressors, turbines, combustion and engine controls. An accompanying engine simulator CD illustrates gas turbine performance from the perspective of the operator, building on the concepts discussed in the text.

Of Golden Toads and Serpents’ Roads
Автор: Paul Freed
Издательство: Texas A&M University Press
Год издания: 2003
isbn: 1585442712
Количество страниц: 208
Язык: english
Формат: PDF

Buyers of this book will read it with remembrances and pleasure. Like most field biologists, I have “been there and done that” but failed to put it into words. Paul Freed has accomplished our task for us in a very eloquent manner. Those of us who have suffered hardships chasing critters in the pursuit of knowledge, or who have a flair for photography of wild creatures, have empathy for Paul. Who among field biologists has not contracted beefworms, dysentery, and a sundry of diseases, both tropical and nontropical, or suffered insect bites, spider bites, snake bites, vehicle breakdowns, floods, broiling sun, things stolen, bribes, and export (and import) permit problems?

It was nearly midnight on June 13, 1942. The United States had entered World War II some six months earlier, after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. The nation’s leading law enforcement agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), was aware that spies from Japan, Germany, or Italy—America’s enemies in World War II— might try to bring the confl ict to American soil. A list of Japanese, German, and Italian aliens living in the United States had been compiled. The FBI’s director, J. Edgar Hoover, ordered FBI agents to review telegraph and cable messages to certain countries before they were sent and to read mail being sent to and from the German and Japanese embassies. Security was increased at defense plants and important industrial sites.

Atomic transport in solids
Автор: A.R.Allnatt, A.B.Lidiard

Год издания: 2003
isbn: 0521543428
Количество страниц: 596

In any area of physical science there are stages in its historical development at which it becomes possible and desirable to pull its theory together into a more coherent and unified whole. Grand examples from physics spring immediately to mind - Maxwell's electro-magnetic theory, Dime's synthesis of wave-mechanics and matrix mechanics, the Salam-Weinberg electro-weak theory. Yet this process of unification takes place on every scale. One example of immediate concern to us in this book here is afforded by the emergence of the thermodynamics of irreversible processes, where the coming together of separate strands of theory is made plainly visible in the short book by Denbigh (1951). In connection with imperfections in crystal lattices the Pocono Manor Symposium held in 1950 (Shockley et a\. 1952) might be said to mark another such stage of synthesis.

Evolutionary Medicine
Автор: Wenda R.Trevathan, E.O.Smith, James J.Mckenna
Издательство: Oxford University Press
Год издания: 1999

Количество страниц: 497

It is one of the minor mysteries of medicine that the publication by Darwin (1859) that identified evolution as a continuing biological process and that accounted for the diversity and successive change in living organisms was not immediately taken up by the physicians of the day. Their daily work then, as now, related to the whole animal biology of one species: one species that was better known in terms of its anatomy, physiology, and behaviour than any other species known to zoology at the time and indeed since. This failure to recognise the significance of the idea of evolution and the explanatory power of its mechanism, natural selection, may relate to the opposition of the established church, which focused all of its disbelief upon the perceived contradiction the theory posed to the biblical explanation of the universe as set out in the Book of Genesis.
