Designers' guide to EN 1998-1 and 1998-5. Eurocode 8 : Design provisions for earthquake resistant structures
Provides comprehensive guidance in the form of design aids, indications for the most convenient design procedures and worked examples. The books also include background information to aid the designer in understanding the reasoning behind and the objectives of the codes. All of the individual guides work in conjunction with the Designers' Guide to EN1990 Eurocode: Basis of Structural Design.
Data and Computer Communications
It is ideal for one/two-semester courses in Computer Networks, Data Communications, and Communications Networks in CS, CIS, and Electrical Engineering departments. This book is also suitable for Product Development personnel, Programmers, Systems Engineers, Network Designers and others involved in the design of data communications and networking products. With a focus on the most current technology and a convenient modular format, this best-selling text offers a clear and comprehensive survey of the entire data and computer communications field. Emphasizing both the fundamental principles as well as the critical role of performance in driving protocol and network design, it explores in detail all the critical technical areas in data communications, wide-area networking, local area networking, and protocol design.
Mastering Revision Rhinoplasty
designed to be read section by section in the order in which it is presented. I would then recommend a re-reading of the first section so that the tenets laid down in this area are more readily understood after having experienced the tech nical presentations. The serious student will then utilize the book as an atlas of techniques that can be conveniently referenced when needed in any particular situation. All surgeons should then use any new information as a beginning plat form of information from which to develop and refine their own experience, col lecting and analyzing their own personal library of techniques, as they advance though this most wonderful and satisfying Discipline.
L’esprit de l’aiguille : L’apport du Yi Jing à la pratique de l’acupuncture = The Spirit of the Needle: The contribution of the Yi Jing to the practice of acupuncture
Acupuncture deciphers and heals human beings in all their mutations. The symbolism of Yi Jing joins the humanism of this Traditional Medicine for a dynamic reading of the changes and transformations at work in human beings. The double reflection generates a global vision of the human being and the approach to patients is changed. After an approach to the state of mind, encountered in these two fields, the author sets out to find the oldest roots of the notions of Yin and Yang. This allows him to identify the main strengths of the constitution of a human being and to deepen its symbolic construction. Three fields of application of this approach are then studied. The Extraordinary Meridians are viewed from a descriptive and behavioral perspective, which makes them extremely lively and familiar. Luo points, human being's relationship points with Reality, are also considered on a practical level using a symbolic reading of the links of Heaven, Earth and Man. Many examples shed light on these aspects. The last application is a detailed and comprehensive presentation of the fundamental and symbolic functions of the twelve main meridians through the hexagrams which correspond to their ancient Shu points. This original book is intended for any practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine curious to broaden their field of investigation. Dr M. Vinogradoff has been practicing acupuncture for 25 years. He is a member of the French Acupuncture Association, the French Acupuncture College and the Ricci Institute. After having published the complete translation of Yi Jing, in 2006 he published a novel, the action of which is set in Ancient China.
Basic theoretical physics : A concise overview
This concise treatment embraces, in four parts, all the main aspects of theoretical physics (I . Mechanics and Basic Relativity, II. Electrodynamics and Aspects of Optics, III. Non-relativistic Quantum Mechanics, IV. Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics). It summarizes the material that every graduate student, physicist working in industry, or physics teacher should master during his or her degree course. It thus serves both as an excellent revision and preparation tool, and as a convenient reference source, covering the whole of theoretical physics. It may also be successfully employed to deepen its readers' insight and add new dimensions to their understanding of these fundamental concepts. Recent topics such as holography and quantum cryptography are included, thus making this a unique contribution to the learning material for theoretical physics.
Application of computational electromagnetics techniques and artificial intelligence in the engineering
Introduces the latest developments in electromagnetic computing and artificial intelligence technology. Artificial intelligence technology can be applied to the modeling, analysis, and optimization design of microwave equipment, solving the routing problem of self-organizing networks in small unmanned aerial vehicle systems, calculating the radiation characteristics of antenna arrays on large electrical platforms, analyzing the impact of electromagnetic wave coupling on electronic devices, simulating the field distribution characteristics of electronic devices, and so on. With the help of artificial intelligence, designers can more conveniently, quickly, and accurately solve engineering problems.
A Course on Mathematical Logic
This is a short, distinctive, modern, and motivated introduction to mathematical logic for senior undergraduate and beginning graduate students in mathematics and computer science. Any mathematician who is interested in knowing what logic is concerned with and who would like to learn Gödel’s incompleteness theorems should find this book particularly convenient. The treatment is thoroughly mathematical, and the entire subject has been approached like a branch of mathematics. Serious efforts have been made to make the book suitable for the classroom as well as for self-reading. The book does not strive to be a comprehensive encyclopedia of logic. Still, it gives essentially all the basic concepts and results in mathematical logic. The book prepares students to branch out in several areas of mathematics related to foundations and computability such as logic, axiomatic set theory, model theory, recursion theory, and computability.
21st century villa
People's everchanging lifestyles bring about more and more requirements for the overall qualities of houses, and the demands for residences have marched towards the psychological dimension and cultural sphere. Consequently, there arise new design trends and new requirements for environment, material selection and design concept. The design projects in this book lead readers to perceive the comfort and cosiness of the natural space. The designers of these projects have created more natural, and convenient living spaces in the most natural and purest design languages, giving them a comprehensive and vivid explanation of the architecture design concept that buildings are created for people.
