It presents knowledge, critical conversations and artistic work related to issues of democracy, both historical and contemporary. Within the global framework of our current (post)democracies, thirteen chapters contain stories and analyses from artists and researchers who all study, understand and facilitate theatre as a political-performative medium in dealing with community-specific democratic issues. The reader encounters studies and reports from specific cases of applied theatre, community culture development and performance activism in countries such as South-Africa, Pakistan, Zimbabwe and Norway. There is a common interest in theatre as a platform for active citizenry, as well as several attempts to explore theatre as a platform for "political subjectivation" (Rancière).Theatre and Democracy TheaterResearchTheaterResearch.792.01Khala AyandaRasmussen BjørnVuuren Petro Janse vanNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910493730103321Theatre and Democracy2986215UNINA06314nam 2200745 450 991081290270332120200520144314.01-118-95064-X1-118-95062-31-118-95063-1(CKB)2670000000592456(EBL)1895795(SSID)ssj0001420881(PQKBManifestationID)12540324(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001420881(PQKBWorkID)11404450(PQKB)11229132(PQKBManifestationID)16037727(PQKB)24232867(DLC) 2014032521(Au-PeEL)EBL1895795(CaPaEBR)ebr11014174(CaONFJC)MIL718988(PPN)192416049(MiAaPQ)EBC1895795(OCoLC)886881723(EXLCZ)99267000000059245620150213h20152015 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrBiosurfaces a materials science and engineering perspective /edited by Kantesh Balani [and three others] ; contributors, Arvind Agarwal [and seventeen others]Hoboken, New Jersey :Wiley,2015.©20151 online resource (397 p.)Includes index.1-322-87706-8 1-118-29997-3 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.Cover; Contents; Foreword; Preface; Contributors; Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION TO BIOMATERIALS; 1.1 Introduction; 1.2 Classification of Biomaterials; 1.2.1 Polymers; 1.2.2 Silicone Biomaterials; 1.2.3 Metals; 1.2.4 Ceramics; 1.2.5 Mechanical Properties of Ceramics; 1.3 Summary; Questions; References; Chapter 2 TISSUE INTERACTION WITH BIOMATERIALS; 2.1 Introduction; 2.2 Protein Adsorption and Cell Adhesion; 2.2.1 Cell Adhesion; 2.3 Cell Migration; 2.4 Controlled Cell Deposition; 2.4.1 Hydrophobicity; 2.4.2 Material Chemistry and Surface Charge; 2.4.3 Surface Topography and Roughness2.5 Extracellular Matrix2.6 Biomineralization; 2.6.1 Inorganic Structure of Life; 2.6.2 The Major Groups of Biominerals; 2.6.3 Types of Biomineralization; 2.6.4 Biomineral Types and Functions; Questions; References; Chapter 3 HOST RESPONSE OF IMPLANTED BIOMATERIALS; 3.1 Immune Response to Implanted Biomaterials; 3.1.1 Introduction; 3.1.2 Activation of the Immune System; 3.1.3 Cells of the Immune System; 3.1.4 Antibodies; 3.1.5 Antigens; 3.1.6 Antigen Processing and Presentation; 3.2 Transplant Immunology; 3.3 Biocompatibility; 3.3.1 Definition; 3.3.2 In vitro and in vivo Tests; ExercisesReferencesChapter 4 FUNDAMENTALS OF SURFACE MODIFICATION; 4.1 Preamble; 4.2 Introduction; 4.3 Surface Properties of Biomaterials; 4.3.1 Protein Adsorption; 4.3.2 Cell Adhesion Ability; 4.3.3 Biocompatibility; 4.3.4 Biomimetics; 4.3.5 Biodegradation; 4.3.6 Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Surfaces; 4.4 Surface Modifications; 4.4.1 Objectives of Surface Modification of Biomaterials; 4.4.2 Methods of Surface Modifications; 4.5 Applications; Questions; References; Chapter 5 MULTI-LENGTH SCALE HIERARCHY IN NATURAL MATERIALS; 5.1 Introduction; 5.2 Multi-Length-Scale Hierarchy; 5.3 Human Bone5.4 Turtle Shell5.5 Wood; 5.6 Silk; 5.7 Nacre; 5.8 Gecko-Feet; 5.8.1 Synthesis of Gecko-Foot-Like Adhesives; 5.9 Lotus Leaf; 5.9.1 Mimicking Lotus Leaf Structure; Questions; References; Chapter 6 SUPERHYDROPHOBIC SURFACES; 6.1 Introduction; 6.2 Surfaces and Superhydrophobicity in Nature; 6.3 Classification of Surfaces; 6.3.1 Learning from Nature; 6.3.2 Role of Chemical Composition and Two-Level Roughness; 6.3.3 Mechanical Aspects of Surfaces; 6.4 Mechanics and Nature of Wetting; 6.5 Fabrication of Artificial Superhydrophobic Surfaces; 6.5.1 Soft Lithographic Imprinting; 6.5.2 Plasma Treatment6.5.3 Sol-Gel Technique6.5.4 Combination Based on Chemical Vapor Deposition; 6.5.5 Electrospinning; 6.6 Preparation of Metallic Superhydrophobic Surfaces; 6.7 Controlled Wettability Surfaces (CWS); 6.8 Conclusions; Questions; References; Chapter 7 SURFACE ENGINEERING AND MODIFICATION FOR BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS; 7.1 Corrosion of Biomaterials and Need for Surface Coating for Biomedical Applications; 7.2 Surface Reactivity and Body Cell Response; 7.3 Key Requirements of Surface Coating; 7.3.1 Surface Roughness; 7.3.2 Porosity; 7.3.3 Cell Adhesion and Growth; 7.3.4 Contamination/Leaching7.3.5 Coating Thickness and Microstructure"Ideal as a graduate textbook, this book is aimed at helping design effective biomaterials, taking into account the complex interactions that occur at the interface when a synthetic material is inserted into a living system.
