Book excerpt: The smell of perversion is as real and pungent as a decaying corpse to psychic Kathy Smith and it is all around her. Paedophiles walk the streets unchallenged, free to prey on the innocent, and now nine children are missing, presumed dead. The list that she is compiling while on sabbatical from her job as a psychologist - cataloguing this evil in the Midlands - is solving nothing. Action is needed. With the unexpected help of Suri, a Malaysian psychic far more powerful than herself, Kathy embarks on a vigilante mission to annihilate those who have the misfortune to feature on her list. But the closer she gets to the truth about the missing children, the less effective her powers become - blocked, it would seem, by the mysterious daisy skull. On a journey to discover what lies behind the ""curtain,"" Kathy must confront her own past and the obsession that has left her life an empty shell, and defeat a force that is far more evil than she ever could have imagined.

Download or read book Resource Recovery to Approach Zero Municipal Waste written by Mohammad J. Taherzadeh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current development results in a linear flow from raw material to waste, which cannot be sustainable in the long term. Plus, a global population of 7 billion people means that there are 7 billion waste producers in the world. At present, dumping and landfilling are the primary practices for getting rid of municipal solid waste (MSW). However, this waste contains resources that we’ve yet to utilize. To create sustainable societies, we need to approach zero waste by recovering these resources. There are cities and countries where zero waste is close to becoming a reality. Landfilling of organic waste is forbidden in Europe, and countries such as Sweden, Germany, Belgium, and Switzerland have developed a variety of technologies to recover resources from MSW. Resource Recovery to Approach Zero Municipal Waste explores the solid waste management laws and regulations of different countries, comparing the latest resource recovery technologies and offering future perspectives. The book tackles the many technical, social, ecological, economical, and managerial aspects of this complex subject while promoting the development of sustainable societies to achieve a greener global environment.
Download or read book Mathematical Foundations of Classical Statistical Mechanics written by D.Ya. Petrina and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-04-11 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph considers systems of infinite number of particles, in particular the justification of the procedure of thermodynamic limit transition. The authors discuss the equilibrium and non-equilibrium states of infinite classical statistical systems. Those states are defined in terms of stationary and nonstationary solutions to the Bogolyubov equations for the sequences of correlation functions in the thermodynamic limit. This is the first detailed investigation of the thermodynamic limit for non-equilibrium systems and of the states of infinite systems in the cases of both canonical and grand canonical ensembles, for which the thermodynamic equivalence is proved. A comprehensive survey of results is also included; it concerns the properties of correlation functions for infinite systems and the corresponding equations. For this new edition, the authors have made changes to reflect the development of theory in the last ten years. They have also simplified certain sections, presenting them more systematically, and greatly increased the number of references. The book is aimed at theoretical physicists and mathematicians and will also be of use to students and postgraduate students in the field.

Download or read book Approaches to Conversion Zero Derivation written by Laurie Bauer and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2005 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thematic publication contains papers presented by invited speakers at a symposium of Conversion / Zero-Derivation held in conjunction with the 10th International Morphology Conference in Szentendre, Hungary, in May 2002, and papers from scholars who could not attend that symposium but indicated their interest in contributing to this volume. Conversion became an issue again in the nineties, probably as a result of the widespread renewed interest in morphology that is in full swing today. The papers contained in this book approach conversion from various perspectives and with different purposes in mind. They cover topics such as what it means to change category, how one can discover the directionality of conversion and the very vexed question of whether an analysis in terms of conversion is or is not to be preferred over one in terms of zero-derivation. All of these questions were canvassed at the symposium, but so were others: questions of typology, conversion in languages other than English, and the question of how far the meaning of conversion is predictable. The participants in the symposium were interested to find that with so many people discussing conversion there was remarkably little overlap in the areas addressed.

Download or read book Thermodynamics Made Simple for Energy Engineers written by S. Bobby Rauf and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-07-07 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every non-fiction book has an objective or mission. The mission of this book is to give the reader an overview of the important principles, concepts and analytical techniques pertaining to thermodynamics, written in a fashion that makes this abstract and complex subject relatively easy to comprehend. The audience this text speaks to includes engineers, professionals with science and math backgrounds, energy professionals, and technicians. The content is presented in a way which also allows many non-engineering professionals to follow the material and glean useful knowledge. For energy engineers who have been away from direct engineering practice for a while, this book will serve as a quick and effective refresher. Thermodynamics topics such as enthalpy, entropy, latent heat, sensible heat, heat of fusion, and heat of sublimation are explained and illustrated in detail. Also covered are phases of substances, the law of conservation of energy, SFEE, the first and second laws of thermodynamics, ideal gas laws, and pertinent formulas. The author examines various thermodynamic processes, as well as heat and power cycles such as Rankine and Carnot. Case studies are used to illustrate various thermodynamics principles, and each chapter concludes with a list of questions or problems for self-assessment, with answers provided at the end of the book.
Download or read book CALCULUS VOLUME1 written by MINGYAO TSAI and published by MING-YAO TSAI. This book was released on 2023-01-15 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What knowledge should a calculus textbook cover? Are we able to tell the goals of learning on top of the content from the outline of the textbook? After every abstruse definition and theory, if there’s only one or two simple demonstrations, what then, is the root cause for students’ inability to solve those difficult practices, a lack of practice or the unfamiliarity of different practice variations? If there’s an exam starting minutes away, what content can be remembered from a closed textbook? There are five highlights in this textbook: · First of all, readers can be aware of the learning goals of each chapter from the outline, allowing beginners to calculus to have clear understanding of the textbook’s structure. · Secondly, before sample practices in each chapter, classic question variations are outlined with steps in solutions. Hence, after practicing, readers will be able to fully grasp the concepts and variation through steps of the solutions. · Thirdly, the book contains more than 2,000 samples and each sample is demonstrated with the most thorough solution steps. Hence, readers will not find themselves confused with skipped steps. · Fourthly, in hopes of allowing readers to understand the book as a whole, including relationships between chapters and significance in specific chapters, I’ve written the textbook as plain and straight-forward as possible. For instance, knowing where and how L'Hôpital's rule will be used in later chapters. · Finally, in contrast with the simple explanations, each sample question is answered with great rigor and accuracy. Across all sample practices in the book, I’ve only used “Let”, “Then”, “Since”, “Thus”, and “Such that” to keep explanations simple and consistent. With all the above mentioned, I hope to present the most detailed context of calculus to all the readers.
Download or read book In Pursuit of the Unknown written by Ian Stewart and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventeen equations that form the basis for life as we know it. Most people are familiar with history's great equations: Newton's Law of Gravity, for instance, or Einstein's theory of relativity. But the way these mathematical breakthroughs have contributed to human progress is seldom appreciated. In In Pursuit of the Unknown, celebrated mathematician Ian Stewart untangles the roots of our most important mathematical statements to show that equations have long been a driving force behind nearly every aspect of our lives. Using seventeen of our most crucial equations -- including the Wave Equation that allowed engineers to measure a building's response to earthquakes, saving countless lives, and the Black-Scholes model, used by bankers to track the price of financial derivatives over time -- Stewart illustrates that many of the advances we now take for granted were made possible by mathematical discoveries. An approachable, lively, and informative guide to the mathematical building blocks of modern life, In Pursuit of the Unknown is a penetrating exploration of how we have also used equations to make sense of, and in turn influence, our world.
Download or read book Analysis of Three fluid Crossflow Heat Exchangers written by Noel C. Willis (Jr.) and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The detailed behavior of three-fluid, crossflow heat exchangers has been investigated. The equations governing the two-dimensional temperature distributions of the three fluids have been derived and nondimentionalized. Performance characteristics have been determined for a wide range of operating parameters for single-pass heat exchangers. The performance of two-pass heat exchangers for both cocurrent and countercurrent flow has been studied for selected operating conditions. Results have been presented graphically in terms of the temperature effectiveness of the two outer fluids as functions of heat-exchanger size for sets of fixed operating conditions. Nondimensional operating parameters have been defined which allow an efficient presentation of the large volume of performance data required to represent a practical range of operating conditions. Sample problems are included to illustrate the use of the performance graphs for design applications.
