Download or read book Meet Me at the Fair A World s Fair Reader written by Celia Pearce and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Together with the Olympics, world's fairs are one of the few regular international events of sufficient scale to showcase a spectrum of sights, wonders, learning opportunities, technological advances, and new (or renewed) urban districts, and to present them all to a mass audience. Meet Me at the Fair: A World's Fair Reader breaks new ground in scholarship on world's fairs by incorporating a number of short new texts that investigate world's fairs in their multiple aspects: political, urban/architectural, anthropological/ sociological, technological, commercial, popular, and representational. Contributors come from eight different countries and represent affiliations in academia, museums and libraries, professional and architectural firms, non-profit organizations, and government regulatory agencies. In taking the measure of both the material artifacts and the larger cultural production of world's fairs, the volume presents its own phantasmagoria of disciplinary perspectives, historical periods, geographical locales, media, and messages, mirroring the microcosmic form of the world's fair itself.

Download or read book Experimental Robotics VIII written by Bruno Siciliano and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-09-05 with total page 671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book collects papers on the state of th eart in experimental robotics. Experimental Robotics is at the core of validating robotics research for both its systems science and theoretical foundations. Because robotics experiments are carried out on physical, complex machines whose controllers are subject to uncertainty, devising meaningful experiments and collecting statistically significant results pose important and unique challenges in robotics. Robotics experiments serve as a unifying theme for robotics system science and algorithmic foundations. These observations have led to the creation of the International Symposia on Experimental Robotics. The papers of the book were presented at the 2002 International Symposium on Experimental Robotics.

Download or read book Detect React written by Borrego, Ignacio and published by Universitätsverlag der TU Berlin. This book was released on 2019-09-16 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The documentation of the seminar 'Scales and Methodology: Verticality' is dealing with the implications of verticality for the conception of hybrid typologies. Beside just the classical skyscraper needle, the seminar was interested in exploring aspects like principles of stacking, the relation of depth in plan and building hight and structural limits and solution. Within this broader scope of questions, the selected study cases covered different aspects of the topic. More precisely there were these projects to be studied: CCTV Headquarter in Beijing, Centre Pompidou in Paris, Downtown Athletic Club in New York, Edificio Copan in Sao Paulo, NL Expo Pavillon 2000 in Hanover, Sendai Mediatheque in Sendai, Vagelos Education Center in New York and the Wyly Theater in Dallas. The students analyzed those various study cases and while in a second step they formulated a case re-study by transforming the building regarding the results of the previous analysis. Die Dokumentation des Seminars ‚Scales and Methodology: Verticality‘ behandelt die Auswirkungen der vertikalen Ausrichtung hybrider Typologien. Ziel des Seminars war es, nicht nur die klassischen bleistiftdünnen Wolkenkratzer zu analysieren, sondern auch grundsätzliche Aspekte, wie die Prinzipen des Stapelns, die Relation von Tiefe und Gebäudehöhe, sowie konstruktive Einschränkungen und Lösungen zu untersuchen. Innerhalb dieses umfangreichen Rahmens von Fragestellungen, erfassten die gewählten Fallbeispiele verschiedene Aspekte des Themas. Die folgenden Projekte wurden hierzu untersucht: CCTV Headquarter in Beijing, Centre Pompidou in Paris, Downtown Athletic Club in New York und das Wyly Theater in Dallas. Die Studierenden analysierten diese diversen Fallbeispiele und arbeiteten anschließend, entsprechend der Ergebnisse aus der vorangestellten Analyse, eine re-study des Beispiels aus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides an overview on wood science and technology of unparalleled comprehensiveness and international validity. It describes the fundamental wood biology, chemistry and physics, as well as structure-property relations of wood and wood-based materials. The different aspects and steps of wood processing are presented in detail from both a fundamental technological perspective and their realisation in industrial contexts. The discussed industrial processes extend beyond sawmilling and the manufacturing of adhesively bonded wood products to the processing of the various wood-based materials, including pulp and paper, natural fibre materials and aspects of bio-refinery. Core concepts of wood applications, quality and life cycle assessment of this important natural resource are presented. The book concludes with a useful compilation of fundamental material parameters and data as well as a glossary of terms in accordance with the most important industry standards. Written and edited by a truly international team of experts from academia, research institutes and industry, thoroughly reviewed by external colleagues, this handbook is well-attuned to educational demands, as well as providing a summary of state-of-the-art research trends and industrial requirements. It is an invaluable resource for all professionals in research and development, and engineers in practise in the field of wood science and technology.
