Free Download Credibility, Validity, and Assumptions in Program Evaluation Methodology by Apollo M. Nkwake English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 199 Pages | ISBN : 3031456130 | 17 MB This book focuses on methods of choice in program evaluation. Credible methods choice lies in the assumptions we make about the appropriateness and validity of selected methods and the validity of those assumptions. As evaluators make methodological decisions in various stages of the evaluation process, a number of validity questions arise. Yet unexamined assumptions are a risk to useful evaluation. The first edition of this book discussed the formulation of credible methodological arguments and methods of examining validity assumptions. However, previous publications suggest advantages and disadvantages of using various methods and when to use them. Instead, this book analyzes assumptions underlying actual methodological choices in evaluation studies and how these influence evaluation quality. This analysis is the basis of suggested tools.  Free Download Creating a Roadmap Towards Circularity in the Built Environment by Luís Bragança, Meri Cvetkovska, Rand Askar, Viorel Ungureanu English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 420 Pages | ISBN : 3031459792 | 53.3 MB This book summarizes the research being pursued as part of the COST Action CA21103 titled "Implementation of Circular Economy in the Built Environment" (Circular B), which aims to define the methodology to develop a common circularity framework for inclusive application and assessment in new and existing buildings to support decision-making for all value chain stakeholders and appraise the implementation level of the European Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP). The Action is increasingly gaining interest worldwide, bringing multidisciplinary young and experienced researchers together to share the latest studies and develop new knowledge. Consisting of 17 chapters corresponding to the conference themes, the book analyses and discusses topics such as Circular Economy (CE) best practices, design strategies for circular buildings, circular materials and products, adaptive reuse of existing buildings, recovery and reuse of salvaged materials and products, case studies of current applications and trends, barriers against CE implementation in buildings, efficient waste and circular resource management, circular lifecycle management and decision making, stakeholders relationships, CE supporting policies and barriers, circular business models, criteria, KPIs and assessment models for circular buildings, CE criteria in sustainability frameworks, digitalization and BIM for enhanced circularity of buildings and building materials, and standardization of CE definitions in buildings.

The contributors of this book are educational leaders who have stayed committed to their neighborhoods and who have seen the moral imperative to provide equal opportunity to all students. This book shares their experiences, particularly looking at community-based schools in urban, impoverished, or immigrant communities-communities that often are disconnected from the political and economic centers of the country.  Free Download Creating Digitally: Shifting Boundaries: Arts and Technologies-Contemporary Applications and Concepts by Anthony L. Brooks English | EPUB (True) | 2023 | 562 Pages | ISBN : 3031313593 | 148.8 MB This book of 21 chapters shares endeavors associated to the human trait of creative expression within, across, and between digital media in wide-ranging contexts making the contents perfect as a course study book uptake within related educations. Globally located chapter authors share their comprehensive artisan perspectives from works associated with regional cultures, diversities of interpretations, and widespread scopes of meanings. Contents illustrate contemporary works reflecting thought-provoking comprehensions, functions, and purposes, posit as contributing toward shifting of boundaries within the field. Original to this approach is the reflective offerings on creating digitally beyond typical psychological analysis/rapportage. The book's general scope and key uses are thus to contribute to scholarly discussions toward informing future projects by having an intended wide readership including from within educations, to artisans, and wider interested public.  Free Download Jasmine Kilburn-Toppin, "Crafting Identities: Artisan Culture in London, C. 1550-1640 " English | ISBN: 152614770X | 2021 | 288 pages | EPUB | 4 MB Crafting identities explores artisanal identity and culture in early modern London. It demonstrates that the social, intellectual, and political status of London's crafts and craftsmen were embedded in particular material and spatial contexts. Examining a range of manuscript, visual, and material culture sources, the book investigates for the first time how London's artisans physically shaped the built environment, and how the experience of negotiating urban spaces affected their own individual and collective identities.  Free Download Covid-19 in Africa: Societal and Economic Implications by Susan Arndt, Banhoro Yacouba, Taibat Lawanson, Enocent Msindo, Peter Simatei English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 330 Pages | ISBN : 3031403150 | 12.5 MB Written amidst the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, this edited volume draws on the expertise of social scientists and humanities scholars to understand the many ramifications of Covid-19 on societies, politics, and the economies of Africa. The contributors examine measures, communicative practices, and experiences that have guided the (inter)action of governments, societies, and citizens in this unpredictable moment. Covid-19 tested governments' disaster preparedness as well as exposed governments' attitudes towards the poor and vulnerable. In the same vein, it also tested the agency of the African populace in the face of containment measures and their impact on everyday social, cultural, and economic practices of ordinary people. In this vein, our concern is to understand the relationship between growing vulnerability on the one hand, and ingenuity of agency on the other, and how both were embodied, narrated and discoursed by the African poor, university students, religious entities, middle-classes, and those who bore the major brunt of the lockdowns.  Free Download Robert Jeffress, "Countdown to the Apocalypse" English | ISBN: 1455563048 | 2015 | 145 pages | AZW3 | 368 KB ISIS. Ebola. Social disorder. Religious persecution. Rampant immorality. Are these the harbingers of the biblical apocalypse, of the end of the world? If they are, what do they mean and when can we expect this to happen? In this eye-opening book, prophecy insider Robert Jeffress offers a reasoned look at these "signs" and what Jesus Christ himself meant when he talked about a future so horrendous that no human lives would be spared "unless those days were shortened" (Matthew 24.22). Did He have our time in mind? All over the world people are aware that something unprecedented in human history is about to happen. COUNTDOWN TO THE APOCALYPSE presents vital information that everyone, both inside and outside the church, needs to know to be prepared.  Free Download Cosmic Biology: How Life Could Evolve on Other Worlds By Louis Neal Irwin, Dirk Schulze-Makuch English | PDF | 2011 | 353 Pages | ISBN : 1441916466 | 143.09 MB It is very unlikely that little green humanoids are living on Mars.

Free Download Corrosion and Reliability Assessment of Inspected Pipelines by Rafael Amaya-Gómez , Emilio Bastidas-Arteaga , Mauricio Sánchez-Silva , Franck Schoefs , Felipe Muñoz English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 (2024 Edition) | 296 Pages | ISBN : 3031435311 | 76. MB This book provides the most up-to-date, advanced methods and tools for risk assessment of onshore pipelines. These methods and tools are based primarily on information collected from ILI measurements and additional information about the soil surrounding the pipeline. The book provides a better understanding how the defects grow and interact (repulsion or attraction) and their spatial variability. In addition, the authors contemplate new defects that evolve between inspections and how they could affect the pipeline's reliability. A real-world case is presented to reinforce the concepts presented in the book. The book is structured into three parts: i) an introduction to onshore pipelines and the problem of corrosion, ii) a framework that deals with uncertainty for integrity programs for corroded pipelines, and iii) the applications of the methods presented in the book. The book is ideal for researchers and field engineers in oil and gas transportation and graduate and undergraduate engineering students interested in pipeline reliability assessments, spatial variability, and risk-based inspections. |
