Yu Huang, "Slope Stochastic Dynamics"
English | ISBN: 9811696969 | 2022 | 177 pages | MOBI | 3 MB
This book provides a new framework for analysis of slope nonlinear stochastic seismic dynamic response based on the new theoretical tool of stochastic dynamics. The coupling effects of uncertainty of geological parameters, strong dynamic nonlinearity, and randomness of ground motion are considered in the process of the seismic dynamic stability assessment of slope. In this book, an intensity frequency non-stationary stochastic ground motion model based on time-domain stochastic process description is preliminarily established to characterize the randomness of earthquakes. The spatial distribution random field model of geotechnical parameters is established to describe the time-space variability of geotechnical parameters. Based on the basic theory of stochastic dynamics, the seismic stability performance evaluation method of slope is established. The slope seismic dynamic model test based on large complex shaking table is performed to verify and modify the proposed framework and method. This book sheds new light on the development of nonlinear seismic stochastic dynamics and seismic design of slope engineering.

Slide monkeys: Swinging through the real estate jungle
English | 12 Sept. 2025 | ASIN: B0FR1DCN42 | 318 pages | Epub | 1.28 MB
Behind every real estate deal is a story that starts with strategy. Research and strategy may not make headlines, but they shape the decisions that determine skylines, portfolios and investment outcomes. In this book, the author takes readers behind the scenes of real estate investment management, revealing how strategists navigate the fast-changing global landscape. Part memoir, part field guide, and part career handbook, this is a no-nonsense account of a profession often misunderstood, yet critical to the business of real estate investing. From Tokyo multifamily housing to Sydney logistics warehouses, he shows how data and market intelligence become actionable strategies. He explains why it is all about understanding people, cities and cycles. With clear insights and candid anecdotes, the book unpacks what strategy really means in practice, why it matters and how it drives the machinery of global capital investing in the world's oldest and largest asset class. Strategy connects capital, cycles and cities. What you will find inside: A look behind the curtains at how real estate strategists inform capital allocation, from deal sourcing to investment decisions and client management The differences between strategy roles across platforms, including private equity firms, LPs, brokerages, REITs, and advisory groups Musings and personal anecdotes from the author's time in investment banking, leading real estate research departments, and navigating boardrooms Practical insights on how to write, present, and argue with conviction when your audience controls capital What makes a good strategist, and how not to become just another PowerPoint machine Career advice that cuts across all sectors: how to build trust, develop a voice, and survive in situations where strategy is both respected and ignored This is not a textbook. There are no formulas to memorize, no jargon thrown around to impress. Instead, it is a clear-eyed take on a profession that blends economics, investment theory, behavioral nuance, and storytelling skills. The real estate jungle is full of alphas and predators. The strategist? The one swinging in the concrete jungle with a spreadsheet in hand, trying to make sense of it all. In this jungle, everyone wants to look like the lion. But sometimes, it is the monkey who sees the forest clearly. Whether you are a student of the built environment trying to find your edge, a generalist navigating unfamiliar sectors, or a leader wondering what value you really bring to the table, Slide Monkeys offers honest, hard-earned insights with just the right dose of sarcasm. While this book draws heavily from the author's experience in Asia Pacific private equity real estate, the lessons apply more broadly. You could be working in finance, consulting, technology. or a completely different field. Yet many of the themes are universal. Think influencing without authority, navigating ambiguity, and building trust. If you are looking for a primer into the field, or a clearer understanding of what real estate investment professionals actually talk about, this is your book. If you are simply someone trying to build a thoughtful career in any noisy industry, trying to figure out why clarity, adaptability, and quiet conviction matter more than loud ambition and job titles, this is your book.

Slices: Observations from the Wrong Side of the Fairway By I. J. Schecter
2006 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 0470837349 | PDF | 2 MB
"Millions of words are written in this field every year, but few better than those that come from I.J. Schecter."-Jane Carter, Editor, Golf Monthly"In golf, there are the elite, and then there are the rest of us. We others, lumped together in the Duffer Zone--you know us from the formal announcements we send out whenever we break 100--are like the thousands who finish mid-pack in a big-city marathon: happily unremarkable, content just to enjoy the sunshine with some like-minded others, unconcerned about the guy who crossed the tape forty minutes earlier. We are competent but not brilliant. We are enthusiastic, though a far cry from intense. Our fairway woods are mostly reliable, but put a 3-iron in our hands and we might as well be swinging a screwdriver."To the low- and high-handicapper alike, golf represents an ongoing quest and an exhilarating challenge. In this brilliant collection, award-winning author I.J. Schecter embarks on a dogged pursuit of golf's elusive Holy Grail--breaking 100--with hilarious results. Clinging to boundless (and often groundless) optimism, Schecter attempts to untangle the secret to good golf in increasingly desperate ways--like playing five different courses in five days, accompanying a greenskeeping team on their pre-dawn rounds, trying to replicate one of Tiger Woods' legendary shots, and turning to a three-year-old for guidance. Like any golfer, he comes to realize that the journey, though demanding, proves its own reward.A unique book from a gifted writer, Slices is an eloquent, witty celebration of both the game of golf and the unwavering efforts of those who try, again and again, to tame it.

Sleepless in America: Is Your Child Misbehaving or Missing Sleep? By Mary Sheedy Kurcinka
2006 | 352 Pages | ISBN: 0060736011 | PDF | 1 MB
Does your child Refuse to cooperate in the morning? Get into trouble for not listening? "Lose it" over seemingly insignificant issues? Seem to resist sleep? An estimated 69 percent of American infants, children, and teens are sleep deprived. Studies have shown that sleep deficits can contribute to hyperactivity, distraction, forgetfulness, learning problems, illness, accidents, and disruptive behaviors. Often what our misbehaving kids really need isn't more "consequences" or more medication but more sleep. Sleepless in America offers weary and frustrated parents a helping hand and an exciting new approach to managing challenging behaviors by integrating research on stress, sleep, and temperament with practical strategies and a five-step approach that enables parents to help their "tired and wired" children get the sleep they so desperately need.

Sklavenjagd und Menschenhandel: Europa und Afrika im Bann des Minotaurus
Deutsch | 15 Jan. 2026 | ASIN: B0F6MWKYS6 | 319 Seiten | EPUB (True) | 497.89 KB
Unser Geschichtsbewusstsein verortet Sklavenjagd und Menschenhandel kaum je im mittelalterlichen Europa. Tatsächlich aber war das christliche Abendland im frühen Mittelalter ebenso wie das subsaharische Afrika das politisch-ökonomische Randgebiet einer Welt, die neben Byzanz vor allem vom Kalifat im Vorderen Orient sowie seinen Emiraten in Spanien und Nordafrika beherrscht wurde. Im Zuge des protoglobalen Fernhandels entstand unter dem islamischem Halbmond eine Raumordnung, in der sowohl Afrika als auch Europa zu Lieferzonen der Sklavenmärkte in Konstantinopel, Damaskus, Bagdad und Cordoba wurden. Nichtmuslimische Afrikaner und christliche Europäer wurden gleichermaßen massenhaft gefangen genommen, unterjocht und ausgebeutet - mit einem Wort: versklavt. Mit Blick fürs Detail folgt Jan Robert Weber den historischen Spuren des Sklavenhandels und erzählt die Geschichte der frühmittelalterlichen S laving Zones mit zweierlei Ausgang: Während das sudanische Afrika dauerhaft zum größten Versklavungsraum der Weltgeschichte hinabsank, rettete sich das lateinische Europa im 10. Jahrhundert mittels Glaube und Gewalt.
