Modern architecture and climate design before air conditioning
explores how leading architects of the twentieth century incorporated climate-mediating strategies into their designs, and shows how regional approaches to climate adaptability were essential to the development of modern architecture. Focusing on the period surrounding World War II'before fossil-fuel powered air-conditioning became widely available'Daniel Barber brings to light a vibrant and dynamic architectural discussion involving design, materials, and shading systems as means of interior climate control. He looks at projects by well-known architects such as Richard Neutra, Le Corbusier, Lúcio Costa, Mies van der Rohe, and Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill, and the work of climate-focused architects such as MMM Roberto, Olgyay and Olgyay, and Cliff May. Drawing on the editorial projects of James Marston Fitch, Elizabeth Gordon, and others, he demonstrates how images and diagrams produced by architects helped conceptualize climate knowledge, alongside the work of meteorologists, physicists, engineers, and social scientists. Barber describes how this novel type of environmental media catalyzed new ways of thinking about climate and architectural design.
Models, Mysteries, and Magic of Molecules
Molecular behaviour, which is no less than magical, holds the key to the understanding, not only of chemistry, but of all biology and of life itself. It is a mystery why molecular behaviour should remain poorly understood and why the authoritative theories of physics have produced no more than superficial models to elucidate this vital issue. This book explores the common ground to guide chemists, biologists, crystallographers, spectroscopists and theorists into a deeper recognition of their individual relevance towards painting a holistic picture of scientific endeavour. This effort to stimulate interest in multidisciplinary research is rare, if not unique.
Models of the Atomic Nucleus
Models of the Atomic Nucleus is a largely non-technical introduction to nuclear theory – an attempt to explain the nucleus in a way that makes nuclear physics as comprehensible as chemistry or cell biology. Unlike many other scientific fields, the "popularization" of nuclear physics has not previously been successful because many fundamental issues remain controversial and a unified theory of nuclear structure has not yet been established. The theme developed in this book is that the many models of nuclear theory each provide a partial perspective on the nucleus and that the many models can in fact be integrated into a coherent whole and expressed in terms of a lattice of nucleons.

Modellistica numerica per problemi differenziali = Numerical modeling for differential problems
This text introduces the basic concepts for the numerical modeling of partial differential problems. We consider the classic elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic linear equations, but also other equations, such as those of diffusion and transport, of Navier-Stokes, and the conservation laws, and we provide numerous physical examples underlying these equations. Then we analyze numerical resolution methods based on finite elements, finite differences, finite volumes, spectral methods and domain decomposition methods. In particular, the algorithmic and computer implementation aspects are discussed and various easy-to-use programs are provided.
Modellistica Numerica per Problemi Differenziali = Numerical Modeling for Differential Problems
This text introduces the fundamental concepts for the numerical modeling of partial differential problems. We consider the classic linear elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic equations, but also other equations, such as those of diffusion and transport, of Navier-Stokes, and the conservation laws. Numerous physical examples underlying these equations are provided, their main mathematical properties are studied, then numerical resolution methods based on finite elements, finite differences, finite volumes and spectral methods are proposed and analyzed. In particular, the algorithmic and computer implementation aspects are discussed and some easy-to-use programs in C ++ language are provided. The text does not presuppose an advanced mathematical knowledge of partial differential equations: the strictly indispensable concepts in this regard are reported in the Appendix. The volume is therefore suitable for students of scientific degree courses (Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Information Sciences) and recommended for researchers from the academic and extra-academic world who want to approach this interesting branch of applied mathematics.
Modelling, Analysis and Optimization of Biosystems
Mathematical models in biology and medicine cannot be based on natural laws as it is the case with physics and chemistry. This is due to the fact that biological and medical processes are concerned with living organisms. Mathematical models, however, can be used as a language by which certain aspects of biological or medical processes can be expressed. In general, several mathematical models can be designed in order to describe a biological or medical process and there is no unique criterion which model gives the best description. This book presents several of these models and shows applications of them to different biological and medical problems. The book shows that operations research expertise is necessary in respect to modeling, analysis and optimization of biosystems.

Modeling Theory in Science Education
The book focuses as much on course content as on instruction and learning methodology, and presents practical aspects that have repeatedly demonstrated their value in fostering meaningful and equitable learning of physics and other science courses at the secondary school and college levels.The author shows how a scientific theory that is the object of a given science course can be organized around a limited set of basic models. Special tools are introduced, including modeling schemata, for students to meaningfully construct models and required conceptions, and for teachers to efficiently plan instruction and assess and regulate student learning and teaching practice. A scientific model is conceived to represent a particular pattern in the structure or behavior of physical realities and to explore and reify the pattern in specific ways. The author further shows how to engage students in modeling activities through structured learning cycles.
Modeling Semantic Web Services : The Web Service Modeling Language
In this book, Jos de Bruijn and his coauthors lay the foundations for understanding the requirements that shape the description of the various aspects related to Semantic Web services, such as the static background knowledge in the form of ontologies, the functional description of the service, and the behavioral description of the service. They introduce the Web Service Modeling Language (WSML), which provides means for describing the functionality and behavior of Web services, as well as the underlying business knowledge, in the form of ontologies, with a conceptual grounding in the Web Service Modeling Ontology.
