Free Download Theory of Urban Space Development by Jin Duan
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 323 Pages | ISBN : 9819751233 | 52.5 MB
This book is a systematic monograph on urban space development theory, exploring the laws of urban space development and the basic principles of planning and design. It clarifies the connotation and methods of urban space development research, highlights the deep structure and four laws of urban space development, expounds the obvious characteristics of urban and regional forms, and discusses the interventional role of urban planning and the development mode of Chinese urban space. It also discusses the methodological change of modern urban design, and forms the principles and core content of China's national spatial planning. Guided by the fundamental principles and methods of development theory, this book follows logical progression from concept to method, from deep structure to manifest form, from macro to micro and from law to planning. By providing readers with a comprehensive and systematic urban space development research system, this book is a valuable read for both researchers and graduate students in urban studies and architectural design. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.

Free Download Theory of Operator Algebras I by Masamichi Takesaki
English | PDF | 1979 | 424 Pages | ISBN : 1461261902 | 39.4 MB
Mathematics for infinite dimensional objects is becoming more and more important today both in theory and application. Rings of operators, renamed von Neumann algebras by J. Dixmier, were first introduced by J. von Neumann fifty years ago, 1929, in [254] with his grand aim of giving a sound founda tion to mathematical sciences of infinite nature. J. von Neumann and his collaborator F. J. Murray laid down the foundation for this new field of mathematics, operator algebras, in a series of papers, [240], [241], [242], [257] and [259], during the period of the 1930s and early in the 1940s. In the introduction to this series of investigations, they stated Their solution 1 {to the problems of understanding rings of operators) seems to be essential for the further advance of abstract operator theory in Hilbert space under several aspects. First, the formal calculus with operator-rings leads to them. Second, our attempts to generalize the theory of unitary group-representations essentially beyond their classical frame have always been blocked by the unsolved questions connected with these problems. Third, various aspects of the quantum mechanical formalism suggest strongly the elucidation of this subject. Fourth, the knowledge obtained in these investigations gives an approach to a class of abstract algebras without a finite basis, which seems to differ essentially from all types hitherto investigated. Since then there has appeared a large volume of literature, and a great deal of progress has been achieved by many mathematicians.

Free Download The Will to Being: Plato, Cronus, and the Cult of Sisyphus by Manuel Cojocaru
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 165 Pages | ISBN : 3031619129 | 6.4 MB
This book addresses death and immortality by paralleling Plato's philosophy of 'becoming like God' through exercising one's intellect and virtues, with the Greek archaic and heroic way of gaining immortal glory through remarkable deeds. In doing so, this study focuses on the explicit and implicit references to earthly immortality and heroism in Plato's dialogues, arguing for a distinction between the Time-bound ontology of the glory-seeking individual and the Being-centered ontology of the philosopher. Such an underlining of the ontological discrepancy between the ways of the hero and those of the philosopher makes this book a novel academic contribution. The dual focus discloses the clash of ontologies yet also reveals an implicit existential turmoil in Ancient Greek culture as to the anxieties surrounding one's potential immortality. This title appeals to students and researchers working in Ancient philosophy and existentialism.

Free Download The Weight of the Vacuum: A Scientific History of Dark Energy by Helge S. Kragh , James M. Overduin
English | PDF (True) | 2014 | 117 Pages | ISBN : 3642550894 | 3.6 MB
The 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for the discovery of cosmic acceleration due to dark energy, a discovery that is all the more perplexing as nobody knows what dark energy actually is. We put the modern concept of cosmological vacuum energy into historical context and show how it grew out of disparate roots in quantum mechanics (zero-point energy) and relativity theory (the cosmological constant, Einstein's "greatest blunder"). These two influences have remained strangely aloof and still co-exist in an uneasy alliance that is at the heart of the greatest crisis in theoretical physics, the cosmological-constant problem.

Free Download The Veins of the Posterior Fossa: Normal and Pathologic Findings by Auguste Wackenheim , Jean Paul Braun
English | PDF | 1978 | 166 Pages | ISBN : 3642667147 | 33.1 MB
It is a privilege and pleasure to write a foreword to this work. Who, twenty years ago, would have thought that a whole book could be devoted to the veins of the posterior fossa? Even today the standard text-books of anatomy only give a paragraph to the subject. Thanks to the dedicated work of rather a few neuroradiologists our knowledge has now reached a very sophisticated level. The careful correlation of anatomical dissection with the angiographic image has achieved this, but without the aid of subtraction (discovered by a world figure in neuroradiology - Professor ZIEDSES DES PLANTES) the subject would not be as advanced as it is. The authors are to be congratulated not only for presenting the most up to date anatomical information but also for showing how wide the applications are in the clinical field by the careful analysis of displacements of veins, many of which were quite unrecognised only a very few years ago. Drs W ACKENHEIM and BRAUN are in the forefront of this discipline to which they and the French school have contributed so much. Also it was their great enthusiasm and drive which led to the birth of the European Society of Neuroradiology, the first meeting of which was held in Colmar in September 1969. The Society has flourished under their guidance and very successful annual meetings have been held for nearly a decade.

Free Download The Transformative Power of Architecture and Urban Design: Planning for Social and Spatial Justice by Mohammad Ali Chaichian
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 339 Pages | ISBN : 3031596064 | 107.4 MB
Informed by urban political economy and critical social analysis, this book provides a critical comparative analysis of macro- and micro-level spatial design processes in architecture and urban planning. It interrogates the extent to which past and existing approaches to design have catered to social justice issues. With a special focus on the Right to the City approach and recent efforts to democratize urban spaces in the post-COVID 19 pandemic era, the book draws on examples of spatial design from the USA, Northern European countries and elsewhere to shed light on the presence (or lack) of social justice concerns in liberal capitalist and social democratic societies. This book is an important academic addition and resource for undergraduate and graduate curricula in architecture and urban planning/design programs, as well as a complementary resource for practitioners and policy planners who engage in urban development and transformation.

Free Download The Three Galileos: The Man, The Spacecraft, The Telescope by Cesare Barbieri, Jürgen H. Rahe, Torrence V. Johnson, Anita M. Sohus
English | PDF | 1998 | 463 Pages | ISBN : 0792348613 | 52.8 MB
The idea of having a conference in Padova describing the results obtained by the Galileo spacecraft and the characteristics of the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo began in 1995, when a number of colleagues from both sides of the Atlantic began exchanging suggestions and ideas. Looking at the schedules of the two teams, it was clear that the beginning of January 1997 would be a good time to hold the conference; these dates also luckily coincided with the dates of the memorable discovery of the Medicean moons of Jupiter by Galileo Galilei in Padova in 1610. To emphasize these three elements, the name of the conference was then proposed and accepted by the involved parties: NASA and JPL in the United States, the German space agency DARA, the University of Padova, and the Astronomical Observatory in Padova. I wish to recall a few key dates: In January 1610, Galileo-from his house in Padova-had the first hint of three and then four stars connected to Jupiter. In December 1995, the probe released from the spacecraft entered the atmosphere of Jupiter, and the spacecraft entered orbit about Jupiter. These extraordinary events were followed at JPL by a number of representatives of many institutions and space agencies. In June 1996, the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo was inaugurated by the King of Spain Juan Carlos I, in the presence of Prof. Luigi Berlinguer, Minister of University and Science. These ceremonies occurred as the spacecraft started touring the moon Europa.
