International Perspectives on Maps and the Internet
Little notice was taken of the first web map but the development of Internet cartography since has been nothing but remarkable. The new medium of communication changed maps from static entities on paper to dynamic products of interaction. Millions of maps are now created by servers every hour and transmitted through the Internet. When we need to find a place or find out about a place, we turn immediately to these servers through the Internet. In a few short years, the World Wide Web has transformed the Internet into the primary medium for the dissemi- tion of spatial information in the form of maps.
Internal friction in metallic materials : A handbook
This book is a unique collection of experimental data in the field of internal friction, anelastic relaxation, and damping properties of metallic materials.
