Sommario/riassunto

ROTATING MACHINERY This third volume in a broad collection of current rotating machinery topics, written by industry experts, is a must-have for rotating equipment engineers, maintenance personnel, students, and anyone else wanting to stay abreast with current rotating machinery concepts and technology. Rotating Machinery Fundamentals and Advances represents a broad category of equipment, which includes pumps, compressors, fans, gas turbines, electric motors, internal combustion engines, etc., that are critical to the efficient operation of process facilities around the world. These machines must be designed to move gases and liquids safely, reliably, and in an environmentally friendly manner. To fully understand rotating machinery, owners must be familiar with their associated technologies, such as machine design, lubrication, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, rotordynamics, vibration analysis, condition monitoring, maintenance practices, reliability theory, and others. The goal of the "Advances in Rotating Machinery" book series is to provide industry practicioners a time-saving means of learning about the most up-to-date rotating machinery ideas and best practices. This three-book series covers industry-relevant topics, such as design assessments, modeling, reliability improvements, maintenance methods and best practices, reliability audits, data collection, data analysis, condition monitoring, and more. Readers will find a good mix of theory and sage experience throughout this book series. Whether for the veteran engineer, a new hire, technician, or other industry professional, this is a must-have for any library. This outstanding new vcolume includes: Machinery monitoring concepts and best practices Optimizing Lubrication and Lubricant Analysis Machinery troubleshooting Reliability improvement ideas Professional development advice.

Sommario/riassunto

La historia contemporánea de España, Francia y otros países del continente europeo resulta inexplicable sin tener en cuenta los



enfrentamientos fratricidas vinculados a fenómenos tan diversos como la revolución, la contrarrevolución, la insurrección, la guerra civil o la resistencia armada frente al invasor foráneo. Aprovechando este rico bagaje de experiencias históricas, y con la mirada atenta a los procesos similares vividos en otros países europeos y americanos, el presente libro analiza aspectos tan diversos como los problemas anejos a una conceptualización científica de la guerra civil, la comparación de los procesos históricos de enfrentamiento civil en España y Francia en los siglos xix y xx, la proyección europea del fenómeno guerracivilista, las lógicas de la violencia y la formación cultural de la imagen del enemigo en este tipo de confrontaciones a gran escala.
