Drawn to Design : Analyzing Architecture Through Freehand Drawing
A guide for students and teachers to understand the need for, the role of and the methods and techniques of freehand analytical sketching in architecture. The presentation focuses on drawing as an approach to and phase of architectural design. The conceptual goal of this approach is to use drawing not as illustration or depiction, but as exploration. The first part of the book discusses underlying concepts of freehand sketching in design education and practice as a complement to digital technologies. The main component is a series of chapters that constitute a typology of fundamental issues in architecture and urban design; for instance, issues of "façade" are illustrated with sketch diagrams that show how façades can be explored and sketched through a series of specific questions and step-by-step procedures.

Drawing Ideas
Focuses on the three key types of drawing, explanatory sketches, notational sketches and visual narratives that help designers think through and communicate their ideas. Through these three fundamentals, Drawing Ideas provides a thorough course in creating clear graphic layouts and diagrams, including expressive human forms, thumbnailing a process, adding effective colour and text and more. In addition, a drawing boot camp provides a refesher course in accurately drawing geometric forms. By getting back to the basics, readers will not only benefit from updated freehand drawing skills, but will also succeed in presenting and explaining their drawings and designs to others.

Double-stranded RNA : Methods and protocols
Examines classical and cutting-edge methods involving double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), specifically regarding isolation, visualization, characterization, production, and application. Many protocols, such as co-immunoprecipitation-based isolation of double-stranded RNA-associated protein complexes, identification of mycoviruses by dsRNA extraction, application of dsRNA for fungi disease management (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Botrytis cin), and production of double-stranded RNA in plants by plant viral vectors for gene silencing, can also be easily adapted for identification of viruses from other organisms, control of other pathogens, and fundamental research. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, as well as tips for troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Doormaking : Materials, Techniques, and Projects for Building Your First Door
Starts first by addressing the fundamentals: the basics of good design and proper construction technique, the pros-and-cons of common materials including wood and sheet goods, interior and exterior finishes, hardware and the fine points of hanging doors. Once those key elements are covered, it offers project chapters that walk the reader step-by-step through the construction of eight essential doors, explaining design and material choices in specific contexts, tool options and other considerations. The first four projects are easly accessible to a beginner while the the remaining projects offer up some more challenging details for the intermediate woodworker. Also included are sidebars containing amusing anecdotes and mistake stories each delivering tips as well as details for hanging a door and an inspiring gallery of doors that are sure to inspire.

Broad coverage of this book ranges from pioneering concepts of DNA nanotechnology to cutting-edge reports regarding the use of DNA nanotechnology for fundamental cell science and related biomedical engineering applications in sensing, bioimaging, cell manipulation, gene therapy, and drug delivery.
Disturbed soil properties and geotechnical design
Describes the developments leading to the Original Cam Clay model, focusing on fundamentals of the shearing of soil. The aim is to lay the groundwork of understanding that should form the basis of geotechnical design, guiding engineers towards the class of behaviour to be expected under different combinations of effective stress and water content.
Dissipative Solitons : From Optics to Biology and Medicine
The dissipative soliton concept is a fundamental extension of the concept of solitons in conservative and integrable systems. It includes ideas from three major sources, namely standard soliton theory developed since the 1960s, nonlinear dynamics theory, and Prigogine's ideas of systems far from equilibrium. These three sources also correspond to the three component parts of this novel paradigm. This book explains the above principles in detail and gives the reader various examples from optics, biology and medicine. These include laser systems, optical transmission lines, cortical networks, models of muscle contraction, localized vegetation structures and waves in brain tissues.
Dissecting Discrimination : Identifying Its Various Faces and Their Sources
This book examines the phenomenon of discrimination using a descriptive approach. Discrimination is omnipresent, whether it is people who discriminate against other people or, more recently, also machines that discriminate against people. The first part of the analysis employs decision theory on discrimination, leading to two fundamental subtypes: taste-based discrimination and statistical discrimination. The second part links taste-based discrimination to social identity theory, demonstrates that not all taste-based discrimination is ultimately statistical discrimination, and reveals the evolutionary origins of our tastes.
Disorders of the Oral Cavity
The oral cavity is the part of the mouth behind the teeth and the gums surrounded by the soft palate, which is the movable layer hanging from the back of the hard palate and ending in the nasal cavity and under the tongue and the mucous membrane connecting it with the inner part of the jaw. It forms the first part of the digestive system. It is considered the entrance of food and drink into the digestive system and an entrance to the air into the respiratory system and it contains the teeth through which the chewing process begins, and on the tongue, which plays a fundamental role in the process of taste and swallowing and is also used by humans in speech to communicate with others, and animals use it to make sounds.
Discontinuous Finite Elements in Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer
Discontinuous Finite Elements in Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer offers its readers a systematic and practical introduction to the discontinuous finite element method. It moves from a brief review of the fundamental laws and equations governing thermal and fluid systems, through a discussion of different approaches to the formulation of discontinuous finite element solutions for boundary and initial value problems, to their applicaton in a variety of thermal-system and fluid-related problems, including: heat conduction problems / convection-dominant problems / computational compressible flows / external radiation problems / internal radiation and radiative transfer / free- and moving-boundary problems / micro- and nanoscale heat transfer and fluid flow / thermal fluid flow under the influence of applied magnetic fields.
Disasters : Core Concepts and Ethical Theories
Examines disasters from a multidisciplinary perspective. Justification of actions in the face of disasters requires recourse both to conceptual analysis and ethical traditions. Part 1 of the book contains chapters on how disasters are conceptualized in different academic disciplines relevant to disasters. Part 2 has chapters on how ethical issues that arise in relation to disasters can be addressed from a number of fundamental normative approaches in moral and political philosophy. This book sets the stage for more focused normative debates given that no one book can be completely comprehensive. Providing analysis of core concepts, and with real-world relevance, this book should be of interest to disaster scholars and researchers, those working in ethics and political philosophy, as well as policy makers, humanitarian actors and intergovernmental organizations.
