 English | 2022 | ISBN: 1350269433 | 177 pages | True PDF | 16.97 MB This accessible book explains the significance of relationships between the body and the mark, visual imitation, drawing and writing and visual storytelling, providing a simple guide to these key ideas. For millennia drawing has been conceived as an exploratory activity, mediating between the vision of the drafter and what they are drawing. Drawing reveals hidden relationships, directs attention, scrutinises the material world and provides plans for further action.  English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031076842 | 410 pages | True PDF EPUB | 29.14 MB This textbook presents the fundamental concepts and theories in thermal physics and elementary statistical mechanics in a very simple, systematic and comprehensive way. This book is written in a way that it presents the topics in a holistic manner with end-of-chapter exercises and examples where concepts are supported by numerous solved examples and multiple-choice questions to aid self-learning. The textbook also contains illustrated diagrams for better understanding of the concepts. The book will benefit students who are taking introductory courses in thermal physics, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics.  English | 2023 | ISBN: 0367757044 | 208 pages | True EPUB | 12.78 MB This book provides detailed information related to nanofluids, synthesis and preparation, morphologies of nanoparticles, selection of base fluids and thermophysical properties of nanofluids. The advantage of various conduits, the improvement of the heat transfer performance of phase change materials (PCMs), and the base PCMs for diverse applications are also discussed. Crucial difficulties like stability, aggregation, and clogging of nanoparticles are detailed including factors like the size, shape, and motion of nanoparticles that influence the heat transfer performance of nanofluids. Challenges, applications, and scope of the future works in the subject area are included. Features: Covers heat transfer techniques in utilization of base fluids application of phase change materials (PCMs) Describes preparation and characterization of nanofluids and nano-based PCMs Explains how nanoscience can be utilized in heat transfer studies Reviews conventional heat transfer fluids This volume is aimed at graduate students and researchers in thermal engineering, heat transfer, material science and engineering, and heat transfer enhancement.  English | 2022 | ISBN: 1071623605 | 681 pages | True PDF EPUB | 52.97 MB This edited volume records the critical historical developments in thermal physiology and makes them accessible to new and senior thermal biologists and scientists in related fields. Readers will discover how the discipline developed all over the world. Contributions from 14 different countries recollect all prominent discoveries, starting in the 18th century. Like other volumes of the Perspectives in Physiology series, this book reveals the people behind these discoveries. The authors also set the scenes in which the research was conducted in their countries. From geopolitical frameworks to new technologies and extraordinary personalities - this volume shows that scientific progress is influenced by many, often unforeseeable, factors. The history of thermal physiology not only is a story about individual outstanding scientists, but a testament for open collaboration and international comradery.  English | 2022 | ISBN: 3110673851 | 402 pages | True PDF EPUB | 48.07 MB This book will provide a firm foundation in the understanding of financial economics applied to asset pricing. It carries the real world perspective of how the market works, including behavioral biases, and also wraps that understanding in the context of a rigorous economics framework of investors' risk preferences, underlying price dynamics, rational choice in the large, and market equilibrium other than inexplicable irrational bubbles. It concentrates on analyses of stock, credit, and option pricing. Existing highly cited finance models in pricing of these assets are covered in detail, and theory is accompanied by rigorous applications of econometrics. Econometrics contain elucidations of both the statistical theory as well as the practice of data analyses. Linear regression methods and some nonlinear methods are also covered.  English | 2022 | ISBN: 0367860767 | 223 pages | True PDF | 9.27 MB Practice theory provides a way of understanding everyday life, but until now its application in occupational therapy has not been much developed. Theorising Occupational Therapy Practice in Diverse Settings draws on practice theory to explore the conditions for occupational therapy practice in a variety of clinical and non-traditional settings.
