 Planetary Social Thought: The Anthropocene Challenge to the Social Sciences by Nigel Clark English | PDF | 2021 | 241 Pages | ISBN : 150952634X | 1.7 MB The Anthropocene has emerged as perhaps the scientific concept of the new millennium. Going further than earlier conceptions of the human-environment relationship, Anthropocene science proposes that human activity is tipping the whole Earth system into a new state, with unpredictable consequences. Social life has become a central ingredient in the dynamics of the planet itself. How should the social sciences respond to the opportunities and challenges posed by this development? In this innovative book, Clark and Szerszynski argue that social thinkers need to revise their own presuppositions about the social: to understand it as the product of a dynamic planet, self-organizing over deep time.
 Physics of Societal Issues: Calculations on National Security, Environment, and Energy, Second Edition by David Hafemeister English | PDF | 2014 | 677 Pages | ISBN : 1461492718 | 8.5 MB This book provides the reader with essential tools needed to analyze complex societal issues and demonstrates the transition from physics to modern-day laws and treaties. This second edition features new equation-oriented material and extensive data sets drawing upon current information from experts in their fields. Problems to challenge the reader and extend discussion are presented on three timely
 Physician's Guide to the Diagnosis, Treatment, and Follow-Up of Inherited Metabolic Diseases, Second Edition by Nenad Blau English | EPUB(True) | 2022 | 1513 Pages | ISBN : 3030677265 | 95.7 MB This updated and enlarged second edition is a unique source of information on the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of metabolic diseases.  Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conversion by Gottfried H. Bauer English | PDF | 2015 | 235 Pages | ISBN : 366246683X | 7 MB This concise primer on photovoltaic solar energy conversion invites readers to reflect on the conversion of solar light into energy at the most fundamental level and encourages newcomers to the field to help find meaningful answers on how photovoltaic solar energy conversion can work (better), eventually contributing to its ongoing advancement.  Photosynthesis: Molecular Approaches to Solar Energy Conversion by Jian-Ren Shen English | EPUB | 2021 | 608 Pages | ISBN : 3030674061 | 143.8 MB In the modern world, to meet increasing energy demands we need to develop new technologies allowing us to use eco-friendly carbon-neutral energy sources. Solar energy as the most promising renewable source could be the way to solve that problem, but it is variable depending on day time and season. From this side, the understanding of photosynthesis process could be of significant help for us to develop effective strategies of solar energy capturing, conversion, and storage.  Photonics: An Introduction by Georg A. Reider English | PDF | 2016 | 459 Pages | ISBN : 331926074X | 17.8 MB This book provides a comprehensive introduction into photonics, from the electrodynamic and quantum mechanic fundamentals to the level of photonic components and building blocks such as lasers, amplifiers, modulators, waveguides, and detectors.  Photodynamic Therapy: From Theory to Application by Mahmoud H. Abdel-Kader English | PDF | 2014 | 317 Pages | ISBN : 3642396283 | 9.1 MB Photodynamic Therapy: From Theory to Application brings attention to an exceptional treatment strategy, which until now has not achieved the recognition and breadth of applications it deserves.  Phase Transformation of Kaolinite Clay by Akshoy Kumar Chakraborty English | EPUB | 2014 | 358 Pages | ISBN : 8132211537 | 4.7 MB The book depicts comprehensive studies on thermal decomposition of Kaolinite by different physico-chemical methods carried out by various scientists in last 100 years and results of the studies conducted by author in past 33 years. It also provides a critical analysis of different views on KaoliniteMullite reaction series, characterization of controversial spinel phase in KaoliniteMullite reaction series and explanation of DTA events of Kaolinite. The book helps both researchers and students to realise the new mechanism of transformation of Kaolinite to Mullite. The new reaction processes discussed in the book also help ceramic experts to synthesize Mullite grains in commercial way for production of Mullite porcelain and Mullite refractory.[b]  Perturbation Analysis of Optimization Problems by J. Frédéric Bonnans English | PDF | 2000 | 618 Pages | ISBN : 0387987053 | 52.1 MB The main subject of this book is perturbation analysis of continuous optimization problems. In the last two decades considerable progress has been made in that area, and it seems that it is time now to present a synthetic view of many important results that apply to various classes of problems. The model problem that is considered throughout the book is of the form (P) Min/(x) subjectto G(x) E K. xeX Here X and Y are Banach spaces, K is a closed convex subset of Y, and / : X -+ IR and G : X -+ Y are called the objective function and the constraint mapping, respectively.  Periodic Monopoles and Difference Modules by Takuro Mochizuki English | EPUB | 2022 | 336 Pages | ISBN : 3030944999 | 32.4 MB This book studies a class of monopoles defined by certain mild conditions, called periodic monopoles of generalized Cherkis-Kapustin (GCK) type. It presents a classification of the latter in terms of difference modules with parabolic structure, revealing a kind of Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence between differential geometric objects and algebraic objects. It also clarifies the asymptotic behaviour of these monopoles around infinity. |
