Book Interactions Between Physics and Dynamics of Solar System Bodies

Download or read book Interactions Between Physics and Dynamics of Solar System Bodies written by E. Bois and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fans of "Asterix the Gallic" know well that the only fear of people in Brittany is that the sky falls upon their head. So it must have been a shock for them (the fans of Asterix) to learn that a horde of Physicists and Dynamicists (some of them being actually Roman - ils sont fous ces Romains!) invaded the bay of Saint-Brieuc and spend a full week conjuring all the nastiness that the sky has in reserve, revelling in the horrors hidden beyond the blue dome; they talked with delight about "asteroids", "comets" and "meteor streams"; they grinned at the idea of "artificial satellites", these pots and pans of space always ready to fall upon you; some of them said strange things about the Moon, the planets, and evoked the "rings" of Saturn or of some other of their gods. One evening, a Roman from Pisa went as far as cornering some inhabitants in the large hut they used for their witchcraft and filled them with terror by describing the fate of the poor dinosaurs victims of a particularly nasty asteroid (or was it a comet?). You will be surprized to learn that Bretons did not exact a spectacular revenge for these offenses. On the contrary.

Book Lunar Exploration

    Book Details:
  • Author : Paolo Ulivi
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2004-04-06
  • ISBN : 9781852337469
  • Pages : 390 pages

Download or read book Lunar Exploration written by Paolo Ulivi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-04-06 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paolo Ulivi provides a well-paced, rapidly moving, balanced, even-handed account of lunar exploration as a popular history. He covers the unmanned programmes, e.g. Ranger, and other American probes in the late ‘50s and in the later chapters he looks at recent lunar exploration and future plans for the same. It’s a book that will be perfect for an enthusiast or someone coming to the story for the first time, as it does not include excessive technical depth. Uniquely drawing on recently declassified documents, detail of Chinese lunar exploration projects is provided, as well as nuclear lunar weapons of the ‘50s developed by the super powers, Soviet Russia and the United States.

Book M  canique des interfaces solides

Download or read book M canique des interfaces solides written by BRACCINI Muriel and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-09-06 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage rassemble différentes contributions autour des problèmes de mécanique posés par les interfaces solide/solide. Que ce soit dans les matériaux traditionnels (alliages polyphasés, composites) ou dans les nouvelles technologies (couches minces, nano- et micro-dispositifs) les interfaces sont omniprésentes et conditionnent souvent le fonctionnement optimal de ces structures multi-constituées. Les différents aspects abordés ont pour objectif d'apporter les notions de base nécessaires à l'étude et à la compréhension des états de déformation et de contrainte au voisinage des interfaces dans les matériaux hétérogènes et leurs conséquences pratiques. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux ingénieurs confrontés à des problèmes spécifiques dus aux effets d'hétérogénéités ainsi qu'aux chercheurs scientifiques abordant les problèmes fondamentaux liés à l'influence d'une interface sur le comportement mécanique d'un élément de matière hétérogène. Il pourra également être utile aux étudiants d'école d'ingénieur, de master et de doctorat en physique de la matière condensée ou en science et génie des matériaux.

Book Handbook of Geostationary Orbits

Download or read book Handbook of Geostationary Orbits written by E.M. Soop and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1994-10-31 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook 0/ Geostationary Orbits is in principle an extension of the Introduction to Geostationary Orbits that was printed as a special publica tion by the European Space Agency (ESA) in 1983. The immediate purpose was to provide the theoretical background and some practical advice for the orbit control of geostationary spacecraft by means of the software package "PEPSOC". PEPSOC, short for "Portable ESOC Package for Synchronous Orbit Con trol" , was produced by the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) to support spacecraft operations in the routine phase. The resulting publication was a handbook for engineers and spacecraft operators, rather than a clas sical textbook in celestial mechanics. During the past eleven years, the software system PEPSOC has found a wide application both within and outside the ESA member states. At the same time, the original Introduction found numerous readers also outside the group of PEPSOC operators. The continuing development and the in creasing use of the geostationary orbit has now created the need for a new, more detailed publication to include new aspects that have emerged. The present Handbook contains several additional subjects and more math ematics to describe the methods applied in PEPSOC. The geophysical and astronomical parameters have been updated to reflect the latest recom mended values. This results in small deviations of the numerical data compared to the Introduction.

Book Le Tractatus de Wittgenstein et l      thique de Spinoza

Download or read book Le Tractatus de Wittgenstein et l thique de Spinoza written by Markus Aenishänslin and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wittgenstein et Spinoza construisent, l'un dans le Tractatus, l'autre dans l'Éthique, des systèmes philosophiques réunissant le monde, l'homme et Dieu dans lesquels ils s'opposent sur de nombreux points. C'est ainsi par exemple que, suivant Spinoza, l'homme est assuré que rien ne se produit sans cause alors que Wittgenstein rejette la possibilité de rapports d'ordre causal entre les événements. Le présent travail dissèque dans une première partie l'œuvre de Wittgenstein, il analyse dans une deuxième partie la doctrine de Spinoza, et il compare enfin dans la troisième partie les deux systèmes dont il fait ressortir les points de concordance et de dissemblance dans leurs constructions respectives. Il traite les œuvres philosophiques que sont le Tractatus et l'Éthique comme si elles relevaient de sciences telles que la mécanique, l'astronomie, etc., et utilise des modèles géométriques appropriés à leur interprétation. L'étude comparative du Tractatus et de l'Éthique, qui ne cessent d'exercer leur influence sur la pensée humaine, permet de conclure que le Tractatus, œuvre du XXe siècle, renoue avec le rationalisme du XVIIe siècle exprimé par Spinoza.
