 The Importance of Packaging Design for the Chemistry of Food Products by Giovanni Brunazzi English | PDF | 2014 | 125 Pages | ISBN : 3319084518 | 1.7 MB This Brief defines reliable correlations between the food packaging design and its chemical features in terms of an 'integrated food product' (the synergistic union composed of the edible content and its container). A good design, as described in this Brief, implies the best choices from a series of possibilities, taking into account economical and commercial influences or limitations in the production and processing chain and the chemical interactions that can arise between the food containers and the contained edible material.  The History and Sedimentology of Ancient Reef Systems by George D. StanleyJr. English | PDF | 2001 | 468 Pages | ISBN : 0306464675 | 58.4 MB From the Preface: The chapters of this book contain contributions from an international group of specialists. They address some important themes in both modern and ancient reef systems. Some chapters contain `snapshots' of reefs of particular intervals, while others touch on relevant themes of both modern and ancient reefs - themes that weave their way through reefs of all ages.  The Handbook of Graphene Electrochemistry by Dale A. C. Brownson English | PDF | 2014 | 208 Pages | ISBN : 144716427x | 6.9 MB Graphene has grasped the attention of academia and industry world-wide due its unique structure and reported advantageous properties. This was reflected via the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics being awarded for groundbreaking experiments regarding the two-dimensional material graphene. One particular area in which graphene has been extensively explored is electrochemistry where it is potentially the world's thinnest electrode material. Graphene has been widely reported to perform beneficially over existing electrode materials when used within energy production or storage devices and when utilised to fabricate electrochemical sensors.  The Geopolitics of U.S. Overseas Troops and Withdrawal by Jo Jakobsen English | EPUB | 2022 | 317 Pages | ISBN : 3030944875 | 1.6 MB "A theoretically rich and empirically detailed account of the persistence of the overseas U.S. military presence, The Geopolitics of U.S. Troops and Withdrawal is an extremely important and timely work."  The Future of Antarctica: Scenarios from Classical Geopolitics by Jeffrey McGee English | EPUB | 2022 | 215 Pages | ISBN : 9811670943 | 8.3 MB As global great power competition intensifies, there is growing concern about the geopolitical future of Antarctica. This book delves into the question of how can we anticipate, prepare for, and potentially even shape that future? Now in its 60th year, the Antarctic Treaty System has been comparatively resilient and successful in governing the Antarctic region.  The Evolution of Violence by Todd K. Shackelford English | PDF | 2014 | 250 Pages | ISBN : 1461493137 | 3 MB Our contemporary capacity for understanding and empathy suggests that people are becoming less disposed to violence. At the same time, current developments in war technologies and the popularity of blood-soaked movies and video games point to the opposite conclusion. The works of Darwin hold crucial keys to the puzzle, yet his theories-and evolutionary theory in general-are often dismissed as relics, or worse.  The Evolution of Travel Time Information Systems: The Role of Comprehensive Traffic Models and Improvements Towards Cooperative Driving Environments by Margarita Martínez-Díaz English | EPUB | 2022 | 299 Pages | ISBN : 3030896714 | 28 MB This book deals with the estimation of travel time in a very comprehensive and exhaustive way. Travel time information is and will continue to be one key indicator of the quality of service of a road network and a highly valued knowledge for drivers. Moreover, travel times are key inputs for comprehensive traffic management systems.
 The European Union's Trade Defence Modernisation Package: A Missed Opportunity at Reconciling Trade and Competition? by Patricia Trapp English | EPUB | 2022 | 342 Pages | ISBN : 3030913627 | 0.5 MB Anti-dumping and anti-subsidy measures are the most important elements of the European Union's trade defence instruments. Since the beginning of the European integration process, they have been used to combat trade practices which are considered "unfair" and their distortive effects on competition in the internal market. However, while the imposition of trade defence measures aims to level the playing field between EU producers and their foreign competitors, it also produces negative effects on competition itself.  The Engineer's Error Coding Handbook by A. D. Houghton English | PDF | 1997 | 259 Pages | ISBN : 041279070X | 17.8 MB Error coding is a fascinating subject as much, if not more so, as it is an indispensable part of modem engineering systems. Unfortunately, in a bid to remain general and to create a solid foundation upon which to build, many books on this subject are out of the reach of those with more engineering-based, or non-mathematical backgrounds. This is a pity because in many cases the maths is tractable with few and simple rules.
 The Encapsulation Phenomenon: Synthesis, Reactivity and Applications of Caged Ions and Molecules by Yan Voloshin English | PDF | 2016 | 653 Pages | ISBN : 3319277375 | 125.1 MB This fundamental book presents the most comprehensive summary of the current state of the art in the chemistry of cage compounds. It introduces different ways of how ions and molecules can be encapsulated by three-dimensional caging ligands to form molecular and polymeric species: covalent, supramolecular, and coordination capsules. |
