Federica Giovanella, "Copyright and Information Privacy: Conflicting Rights in Balance" English | 2017 | ISBN: 1785369350 | PDF | pages: 358 | 1.9 mb Federica Giovanella examines the on-going conflict between copyright and informational privacy rights within the judicial system in this timely and intriguing book.  Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles by Antonios Tsourdos, Brian White, Madhavan Shanmugavel English | PDF | 2010 | 204 Pages | ISBN : 0470741295 | 2.9 MB An invaluable addition to the literature on UAV guidance and cooperative control, Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles is a dedicated, practical guide to computational path planning for UAVs. One of the key issues facing future development of UAVs is path planning: it is vital that swarm UAVs/ MAVs can cooperate together in a coordinated manner, obeying a pre-planned course but able to react to their environment by communicating and cooperating. An optimized path is necessary in order to ensure a UAV completes its mission efficiently, safely, and successfully.  Conversations with Wole Soyinka (Literary Conversations Series) By Biodun Jeyifo (editor) 2001 | 223 Pages | ISBN: 1578063388 | PDF | 15 MB Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka is the most prominent writer from the African continent and one of the greatest living playwrights in the English language. His plays have been produced by the leading professional and repertory companies and stages in the English-speaking world including the National Theatre in Britain and the Lincoln Center in New York. At the same time, Soyinka has been the most consistent campaigner against civil and human rights violations and abuses, on occasion using his drama, poetry, and essays to speak out powerfully and eloquently in defense of the freedom of ordinary citizens and of the conscience and autonomy of the African continent's writers and intellectuals. Featuring interviews with Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Anthony Appiah, and the editor, among others, Conversations with Wole Soyinka is the first collection of Soyinka's interviews. The volume helps to clarify the place of Soyinka in the canon of modern African literature and the international currents of world literature in English of the last half century. Within the interviews, Soyinka is forthright, clear, and eloquent. He specifically addresses many facets of his writing and plumbs pressing issues of culture, society, and community in the present period of increasing globalization. With interviewers in Africa, America, and the United Kingdom he discusses the rise of extreme nationalist and fundamentalist movements and ideologies in his homeland. In particular, the volume throws welcome light on many of the difficulties and obscurities of form and "message" that both academic and non-academic readers find in the most ambitious works of Soyinka. Soyinka says, "I never set out to be obscure. But complex subjects sometimes elicit from the writer complex treatments."  Controversial Issues and Social Problems for an Integrated Disciplinary Teaching English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031086961 | 201 Pages | PDF (True) | 4.4 MB The scientific literature has been showing that the teaching of controversial topics constitutes one of the most powerful tools for the promotion of active citizenship, the development and acquisition of critical-reflective thinking skills (Misco, 2013), and education for democratic citizenship (Pollak, Segal, Lefstein, and Meshulam, 2017; Misco and Lee, 2014). It has also highlighted, however, the complexities, risks and interference of emotional reactions in learning about sensitive, controversial or controversial historical, geographical or social issues (Jerome and Elwick, 2019; Reiss, 2019; Ho and Seow, 2015; Washington and Humphries, 2011; Swalwell and Schweber, 2016).  Xingchen Jiao, "Controllable Preparation of Two-Dimensional Metal Sulfide/Oxide for CO2 Photoreduction " English | ISBN: 9811948879 | 2022 | 123 pages | PDF | 6 MB This book introduces readers to the preparation of two-dimensional metal sulfide/oxide for CO2 photoreduction. Based on two-dimensional metal sulfide/oxide materials, this book establishes the structure-to-property relationships of photocatalyst for CO2 photoreduction, and reveals the intrinsic mechanism of the CO2 photoreduction by virtue of the in situ characterization techniques and the density functional theory calculations. It is anticipated that this book will help to identify empirical guidelines for designing and fabricating high-performance catalysts of solar-driven CO2 reduction.  Shahid Amin, "Conquest and Community: The Afterlife of Warrior Saint Ghazi Miyan" English | 2016 | ISBN: 022637260X | PDF | pages: 342 | 16.0 mb Few topics in South Asian history are as contentious as that of the Turkic conquest of the Indian subcontinent that began in the twelfth century and led to a long period of Muslim rule. How is a historian supposed to write honestly about the bloody history of the conquest without falling into communitarian traps?  Condensed-Phase Molecular Spectroscopy and Photophysics English | 2023 | ISBN: 1119829267 | 411 Pages | PDF | 15 MB Condensed-Phase Molecular Spectroscopy and Photophysics comprehensively covers radiation-matter interactions for molecules in condensed phases along with metallic and semiconductor nanostructures, examining optical processes in extended systems such as metals, semiconductors, and conducting polymers and addressing the unique optical properties of nanoscale systems.  Concrete-Filled Steel Tubular Arch Bridges English | 2023 | ISBN: 9811936994 | 589 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 198 MB This book discusses the features of composite materials and arch structures. Providing an in-depth fundamental and practical guide to the field, it systemically addresses all aspects of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) arch bridges, including a comprehensive overview on technical developments, structural systems, structural detailing, design and analysis, construction technology, and maintenance. The real-world examples presented have been carefully selected to highlight the advanced theoretical and technological solutions for CFST arch bridges and to motivate researchers to promote innovative and sustainable development in the area. |
