Sommario/riassunto |
|
Karl Raimund Popper's (1902-1994) magnum opus, The Logic of Scientific Discovery (1934), was fundamental to the development of critical rationalism. Critical rationalism reveals why knowledge is fallible and proposes that progress in knowledge results from hypothesis formation and disproof. This compendium mimics the structure of the Logic of Scientific Discovery to comment on specific themes from the perspective of current understanding. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Sponsored by the Technical Council on Wind Engineering of ASCE. Wind Issues in the Design of Buildings explains the ways that structural designers accommodate the impact of extreme wind events on the built environment. By studying the flow and pressure fields around buildings, architects and engineers can identify and select the best strategies for ensuring that a building will resist the loads due to high winds, maintaining pleasant conditions in outdoor spaces, assessing natural ventilation potential, and seeing that any exhaust fumes are dispersed adequately. This volume identifies wind characteristics and describes the effects of winds generated by hurricanes, tornadoes, and thunderstorms. It explains the internal and external pressures on a building's cladding (skin) and the effects of wind-borne debris. A building's response to the structural loads caused by wind is outlined, along with techniques for resisting wind. A chapter is devoted to wind tunnels and physical modeling to predict structural loads, cladding response, pedestrian experience, topographic effects, and snow deposition. A section of frequently asked questions, a glossary, and recommended reading make this material in this volume accessible to |

students and nontechnical members of project teams. Structural engineers and architects will find this book a useful aide in explaining wind-related issues to clients, builders, building officials, and owners. Students in structural and architectural engineering will welcome the clear, concise presentation of an important component of structural design. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book is focused on new researches pertaining to the following areas: herbs and spices commonly used in foods, bioactive compounds derived from plants with specific focus on applications of natural products as antibacterial agents and antioxidants in foods. The data recorded through ethnopharmacological field studies are invaluable as these provide information on medicinal plants used to treat foodborne diseases. Pharmacognostic studies on certain plants have been included which provides basic data to help fixing-up their pharmacopoeial standards, thereby ensuring quality food additives. Other interesting topics include reviews on proposed mechanisms of actions of natural products as well as applications in the food industry. |
