Download or read book Physical Techniques in the Study of Art Archaeology and Cultural Heritage written by and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2006-05-02 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of its kind, this series is devoted to the use of physical principles in the study and scientific conservation of objects with cultural heritage significance. It begins with a review of the modern museum, which discusses new techniques employed in the conservation of museum artifacts such as X-ray tomography and other techniques used to study Egyptian mummies, bones and mineralization of bones in the archaeological context, and the degradation of parchment. All of these topics and techniques are essential for the preservation of our history. This includes finding ways to preserve parchment documents and letters, which much of our written heritage is documented on, so that it can be used and understood for generations to come. This book is a must have for any museum as well as any university that teaches or employs the techniques discussed. - Written in a style that is readily understandable by conservation scientists, archaeologists, museum curators, and students - Provides an introduction to the advanced fields of synchrotron radiation science, neutron science, and computed tomography - Outstanding review of the use of modern technology to study museum and archaeological artifacts - Offers solutions through advanced scientific techniques to a wide range of problems facing museum staff
Download or read book Muscle Energy Techniques Second Edition written by John Gibbons and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2022-06-21 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised and updated: a fresh new look to an established best-seller--an essential tool for physical therapists that offers unique insights into the versatile and highly effective technique of muscle energy techniques. Muscle Energy Techniques is a must-have for any student or practitioner of physical therapy, osteopathy, physiotherapy, chiropractic, or massage therapy. This practical guide--packed with full-color photographs and illustrations--fully explains the theory and practice of a range of muscle energy techniques. The book is broken in 5 parts. In part I, John Gibbons examines the theory and principles behind muscle energy techniques, with chapters that explain the technique, muscle imbalances, myofascial slings, and core muscle relationships. Parts II to IV break down the technique by body area--upper body, lower body, trunk, and pelvis--with clear descriptive explanations of the techniques. Accompanied by color photographs with directional arrows, each shows the practitioner how to maximize treatment benefits. Clear drawings allow the reader to understand the basic anatomy of each muscle. A concluding part V shows two applications of muscle energy techniques: self-lengthening techniques for the shoulder complex and muscle weakness testing of the gluteals.
Download or read book Palpation Techniques written by Bernhard Reichert and published by Thieme. This book was released on 2021-05-21 with total page 1135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This completely updated third edition of the award-winning Palpation Techniques is a beautifully illustrated guide with clear step-by-step descriptions that teach readers how to identify and distinguish between a multitude of underlying body structures, based mainly on palpation alone. A unique graphic technique using detailed drawings of muscles, bones, and tendons directly on the skin, which come alive in almost 900 full-color photographs along with complementary color illustrations, provides a solid understanding of the functional significance of each anatomic region. The previous edition introduced palpation techniques for the shoulder and included new photos and illustrations for the hand, hip, and foot. This third edition is upgraded with a chapter on the abdominal area and additional subchapters on further starting positions and palpation techniques of the shoulder, elbow, and hip/groin. Many new illustrations accompany these new sections. Readers will learn how to use: Palpation during physical examination to localize painful, injured structures (provocative palpation) Joints as critical landmarks in carrying out tests and guiding manual therapy techniques Palpation of peripheral nerves to localize and assess sources of dysfunction and pain Deep soft-tissue palpation to relieve musculoskeletal pain This outstanding book will enable physical therapy and osteopathy practitioners and students to refine their knowledge of practical anatomy further and thus optimize patient care.
Download or read book Physical Chemical Techniques written by Dan H. Moore and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical Techniques in Biological Research, Second Edition, Volume II, Part B: Physical Chemical Techniques covers physical chemical techniques that have been most widely employed in the investigation of molecules of biological significance. The book discusses the measurement and properties of ionizing radiations; magnetic resonance and related techniques in magnetic susceptibility measurements; and chromatographic methods and applications of chromatography to steroid research. The text then describes the phenomenon of centrifugation, including the techniques for studying density gradient centrifugation; the formation of gradient column in swinging-bucket tubes; gradient materials; density gradient centrifugation in heavy salt; some factors influencing the distribution of sedimenting particles; and the recovery of samples. Biological investigators and students of biophysics or biochemistry will find the book invaluable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: to the Fundamental and Applied Catalysis Series Catalysis is important academically and industrially. It plays an essential role in the manufacture of a wide range of products, from gasoline and plastics to fertilizers and herbicides, which would otherwise be unobtainable or prohibitive ly expensive. There are few chemical-or oil-based material items in modern society that do not depend in some way on a catalytic stage in their manufacture. Apart from manufacturing processes, catalysis is finding other important and over-increasing uses; for example, successful applications of catalysis in the control ofpollution and its use in environmental control are certain to in crease in the future. The commercial import an ce of catalysis and the diverse intellectual challenges of catalytic phenomena have stimulated study by a broad spectrum of scientists including chemists, physicists, chemical engineers, and material scientists. Increasing research activity over the years has brought deeper levels of understanding, and these have been associated with a continually growing amount of published material. As recentlyas sixty years ago, Rideal and Taylor could still treat the subject comprehensively in a single volume, but by the 19 50s Emmett required six volumes, and no conventional multivolume text could now cover the whole of catalysis in any depth.

Download or read book Technics and Civilization written by Lewis Mumford and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-10-30 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technics and Civilization first presented its compelling history of the machine and critical study of its effects on civilization in 1934—before television, the personal computer, and the Internet even appeared on our periphery. Drawing upon art, science, philosophy, and the history of culture, Lewis Mumford explained the origin of the machine age and traced its social results, asserting that the development of modern technology had its roots in the Middle Ages rather than the Industrial Revolution. Mumford sagely argued that it was the moral, economic, and political choices we made, not the machines that we used, that determined our then industrially driven economy. Equal parts powerful history and polemic criticism, Technics and Civilization was the first comprehensive attempt in English to portray the development of the machine age over the last thousand years—and to predict the pull the technological still holds over us today. “The questions posed in the first paragraph of Technics and Civilization still deserve our attention, nearly three quarters of a century after they were written.”—Journal of Technology and Culture
