Book excerpt: Amalia is a heroin, a mother and a wife: she retraces the events of her family through three generations. She welcomes their inheritance in a hard struggle to survive between a Country's rural age at its sunset and a working-class Milan in which the war is perceived by apocalyptic aerial bombardments and alarm sirens. Of the war she talks about the anxiety and the horror: she faces losses and mourning with an aching and courageous heart, with the determination to build a future for her and her little daughter and with the certainty of the return of her never forgotten hero, Commander Guido. He, in the meanwhile, is engaged with his patrol in an epic crossing of the Sahara desert through Libya, Tunisia and Algeria, trying to bring his men to safety.

Prefazione Eroina, madre e sposa ripercorre le vicende della sua famiglia attraverso tre generazioni, accoglie la loro eredità in una dura lotta per sopravvivere tra l'epoca contadina al tramonto e una Milano operaia in cui la guerra è percepita dagli apocalittici bombardamenti aerei e dalle sinistre sirene di allarme. Della guerra racconta l'ansia e l'orrore, affrontando con cuore dolente e coraggioso perdite e lutti, con la determinazione di costruire un futuro per lei e la piccola figlia, con la certezza del ritorno del mai dimenticato eroe, comandante Guido, impegnato con la sua pattuglia in una epica traversata del deserto del Sahara tra la Libia, la Tunisia e l'Algeria portando in salvo la vita dei suoi uomini.

This book was released on 2023-09-11 with total page 1188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers state-of-the-art developments in the collision and grounding of ship and offshore structures. The topics covered by the contributions include: dynamics of vessels in collision and grounding; collision and grounding in Arctic conditions; collision and grounding statistics and measures of the probability of incidents; risk assessment of collision and grounding; measures for reduction of collision and grounding, machine learning methods for the evaluation of probabilistic collision and grounding risk; new designs for improvement of structural resistance to collisions; analysis of ultimate strength of damaged ship structures; design of buffer bows to reduce collision consequences; innovative navigation systems for safer sea transportation, collision between ships and offshore structures; collision between ships and fixed or floating bridges, collision and grounding experiments; properties of materials under impact loadings; residual strength of damaged ships and offshore structures; hull girder response of ships under severe dynamic loadings. The book is aimed at naval architects, marine engineers and scientists. The ICCGS conferences aim to present state-of-the-art methods for analysis and design against collision and grounding of ships, collisions between ships and icebergs, offshore structures, bridges, submerged tunnels and waterfront structures. Previous conferences were held in: San Francisco, USA in 1996; Copenhagen, Denmark in 2001; Tokyo, Japan in 2004; Hamburg, Germany in 2007; Helsinki, Finland in 2010; Trondheim, Norway in 2013; Ulsan, South Korea in 2016, and Lisbon, Portugal in 2019. The Proceedings in Marine Technology and Ocean Engineering series is devoted to the publication of proceedings of peer-reviewed international conferences dealing with various aspects of ‘Marine Technology and Ocean Engineering’. The Series includes the proceedings of the following conferences: the International Maritime Association of the Mediterranean (IMAM) Conferences, the Marine Structures (MARSTRUCT) Conferences, the Renewable Energies Offshore (RENEW) Conferences and the Maritime Technology (MARTECH) Conferences, and the Collision and Grounding of Ships and Offshore Structures (ICCGS) conferences. The ‘Marine Technology and Ocean Engineering’ series is also open to new conferences that cover topics on the sustainable exploration and exploitation of marine resources in various fields, such as maritime transport and ports, usage of the ocean including coastal areas, nautical activities, the exploration and exploitation of mineral resources, the protection of the marine environment and its resources, and risk analysis, safety and reliability. The aim of the series is to stimulate advanced education and training through the wide dissemination of the results of scientific research.
Download or read book Dijet Angular Distributions in Proton Proton Collisions written by Nele Boelaert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-26 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is based on the first data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Its theme can be described as the classical Rutherford scattering experiment adapted to the LHC: measurement of scattering angles to search for new physics and substructure. At the LHC, colliding quarks and gluons exit the proton collisions as collimated particle showers, or jets. The thesis presents studies of the scattering angles of these jets. It includes a phenomenological study at the LHC design energy of 14 TeV, where a model of so-called large extra dimensions is used as a benchmark process for the sensitivity to new physics. The experimental result is the first measurement, made in 2010, by ATLAS, operating at the LHC start-up energy of 7 TeV. The result is compatible with the Standard Model and demonstrates how well the physics and the apparatus are understood. The first data is a tiny fraction of what will be accumulated in the coming years, and this study has set the stage for performing these measurements with confidence as the LHC accumulates luminosity and increases its energy, thereby probing smaller length scales.
Download or read book Autodesk Maya 2020 Simulation and Effects Book written by Serdar Hakan DÜZGÖREN and published by Serdar Hakan DÜZGÖREN. This book was released on with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bullet Rigid and Soft Body Dynamics The Bullet physics engine lets you create large-scale, highly-realistic dynamic and kinematic simulations. You can use Bullet to create content for rendered animations for film and visualization, as well as for the setup of game engine and real-time simulations. The Bullet plug-in provides seamless mapping of Bullet objects to Maya objects. The controls to the Bullet objects are exposed in Maya Objects, and the interaction follows the typical Maya dynamics paradigm. Bullet Physics is an open-source collision detection, rigid body and soft body dynamics library. The library provides a collection of objects each corresponding to the various aspects of dynamic simulations. For example, the Bullet solver, rigid bodies, soft bodies and constraints are all unique Bullet objects.

Book excerpt: "On February 24, 2022, Vladimir Putin launched a massive invasion of Ukraine, setting in motion changes that have been felt around the globe. Collision is the story of this war's origins. It begins in 2008, when Barack Obama came to power in the United States and Dmitry Medvedev came to power in Russia, a period of optimism and new beginnings. It then traces a steady parting of the ways between the United States and Russia, from the return of a newly aggressive Putin to the Kremlin in 2012 to the outbreak of a revolution in Ukraine--and the subsequent Russian annexation of Crimea and invasion of Eastern Ukraine"--
