Download or read book The Smart Guide to Maintaining Synthetic Sports Turf Long Pile written by Martin Sheppard and published by . This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The popularity of the synthetic sports surfaces has seen more than 100 fields installed in Australia for various football codes, with another 50 already being planned. Historically the perception was that you could play 24/7 on the fields and little maintenance was required. Written by Australian synthetic sports turf expert Martin Sheppard, in conjunction with Europe's leading expert Alastair Cox; The Smart Guide to Maintaining Synthetic Sports Turf (Long Pile) brings together the best thinking globally. It addresses the importance and principles of maintenance; the type of maintenance that typically needs to be completed; the machines to use; research from the world governing body for Football (FIFA) together with typical schedules for consideration.Targeted at the key investors in synthetic surfaces in Australia including local government; sport and the education sectors Sheppard stated "the average life expectancy of synthetic sports fields is around ten years and cost in excess of $1.2 m to install, yet some purchasers believe the old sales spin that you can play on them 24 hours a day and no maintenance is needed. This isn't true".

Download or read book Superhydrophobic Polymer Surfaces written by Iskender Yilgoer and published by Smithers Rapra. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surface properties play critical roles in determining the durability and overall performance of polymeric materials for applications in many different fields. Recent investigations on naturally superhydrophobic surfaces such as plant leaves and insect wings led to a clear understanding of the close relationship between surface topography, roughness, chemical structure and superhydrophobicity. This led to a dramatic increase in research efforts on the preparation and characterisation of polymeric systems with superhydrophobic surfaces. Current and potential uses of such materials in a wide range of applications also make them commercially very attractive.The main focus of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of the new developments regarding the preparation and characterisation of superhydrophobic polymeric surfaces. A large number of methods used in the preparation of robust and durable superhydrophobic polymer surfaces and their advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Close relationship between the polymer composition, hierarchical micro/nano surface topography and superhydrophobic behavior are provided. In addition to the practical aspects, special emphasis is also given to the discussion of the theoretical foundations of the wetting behavior of rough surfaces.Nature is the ultimate guide for the preparation of functional materials and surfaces. As discussed in detail in the book, using biomimetic approaches it is possible to design and produce superhydrophobic surfaces with interesting functionalities. The most critical tasks for the scientists and engineers working in the field seem to be; (i) to clearly understand the relations between surface compositions, topography and surface properties; (ii) to develop simple laboratory techniques and commercially viable production methods to produce superhydrophobic surfaces and devices mimicking the natural systems; and (iii) to demonstrate novel applications in research laboratory and develop commercial applications for these materials with smart and multifunctional surfaces.This book provides a clear understanding of the theoretical foundations of superhydrophobicity together with practical experimental guidance for the preparation of such polymeric surfaces to researchers and application engineers working in the field.
