Leave the World Behind explores how our closest bonds are reshaped—and unexpected new ones are forged—in moments of crisis. Amanda and Clay head out to a remote corner of Long Island expecting a vacation: a quiet reprieve from life in New York City, quality time with their teenage son and daughter, and a taste of the good life in the luxurious home they’ve rented for the week. But a late-night knock on the door breaks the spell. Ruth and G. H. are an older couple—it’s their house, and they’ve arrived in a panic. They bring the news that a sudden blackout has swept the city. But in this rural area—with the TV and internet now down, and no cell phone service—it’s hard to know what to believe. Should Amanda and Clay trust this couple—and vice versa? What happened back in New York? Is the vacation home, isolated from civilization, a truly safe place for their families? And are they safe from one other?

Download or read book Waves in Focal Regions written by J.J Stamnes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using numerous mathematical and numerical techniques of diffraction theory, Waves in Focal Regions: Propagation, Diffraction and Focusing of Light, Sound and Water Waves provides a full and richly illustrated description of waves in focal regions. Unlike most books, the author treats electromagnetic, acoustic, and water waves in one comprehensive volume. After an introductory section, the book describes approximate diffraction theories and efficient numerical methods to study the focusing of various kinds of waves. It then covers the physical interpretation of the theories, their accuracy, and the computational savings obtained, emphasizing uniform asymptotic results that remain valid in the vicinity of shadow boundaries and caustics. The next part deals with the focusing of scalar waves, including thorough theoretical analyses and detailed contour maps of diffraction patterns in focal regions for a variety of different system parameters, such as f-number, Frensel number, aperture shape, amplitude distribution, and wavefront aberration. The author proceeds to explore the diffraction and focusing of electromagnetic waves. First solutions are derived for fields radiated by sources, reflected and refracted at plane interfaces, or diffracted by apertures in plane screens, and then these solutions are applied to study the focusing in homogeneous media and through a plane dielectric interface. In both cases, the author includes many computed results of the electromagnetic field distribution near focus. Presenting both theoretical and experimental results, the following part examines the focusing of sound and water waves by means of zone-plate lenses. The book concludes with a detailed study of the diffraction and focusing of water waves and a comparison of the results of both linear and nonlinear theories with those of experiments.

Download or read book Electromagnetic Fields and Waves written by Eugene I. Nefyodov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-27 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook is intended for a course in electromagnetism for upper undergraduate and graduate students. The main concepts and laws of classical macroscopic electrodynamics and initial information about generalized laws of modern electromagnetics are discussed, explaining some paradoxes of the modern theory. The reader then gets acquainted with electrodynamics methods of field analysis on the basis of wave equation solution. Emission physics are considered using an example of the Huygens-Fresnel-Kirchhoff canonic principle. The representation about strict electrodynamics task statement on the base of Maxwell equations, boundary conditions, emission conditions and the condition on the edge is given. Different classes of approximate boundary conditions are presented, which essentially simplify understanding of process physics. The canonic Fresnel functions are given and their generalization on the case of anisotropic impedance. The free waves in closed waveguides and in strip-slotted and edge-dielectric transmission lines are described. A large number of Mathcad programs for illustration of field patterns and its properties in different guiding structures are provided. The material is organized for self-study as well as classroom use.

Download or read book Social Media Dictators written by Onesimus Malatji and published by Onesimus Malatji. This book was released on with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Social Media Dictators: The Dark Side of Digital Influence" is an in-depth examination of the toxic behaviour that occurs on social media platforms like X. The book scrutinizes how individuals wield undue influence and power to manipulate, control, and sabotage others' lives, careers, and emotional well-being. The book is divided into 36 chapters, each focusing on a distinct aspect of social media dictatorship. From the rebranding of Twitter to X to the psychology behind why some people seek to manipulate others, the book offers a comprehensive look at the underbelly of digital society. Topics include the weaponization of mob mentality, the destructive power of envy, the sabotage of good intentions, and the misuse of labels like "abuser." The book also delves into lived experiences, emphasizing that everyone's story is important and needs to be heard, irrespective of the attempts by social media dictators to stifle them. It examines the challenges faced by individuals in various situations, whether it's a billionaire losing millions or someone confronting physical loss, advocating for a more compassionate approach to help them. A recurring theme throughout is the need for digital ethics and regulation to prevent such exploitation and abuse. Moreover, it explores how such behaviour is not limited to one country or culture but is a global phenomenon requiring collective action. Practical advice is offered to those who have been victims of social media attacks, empowering them with the tools to reclaim their online lives. The book stresses that the responsibility for change does not solely lie with the platforms but with the users and society at large. The concluding sections provide a roadmap for lasting change, advocating for a more responsible and ethical use of social media. By shedding light on the dark corners of social media, the book aims to be a catalyst for change, urging collective action to make the digital world a safer, more inclusive space for all.
