These skills were necessary for the nascent Church. Knowledge of Homer's writings was a sign of Greekness, of at-home-ness in the society. Education was embedded in the mythology, immorality and idolatry of these writings. This challenged the Christians. This study presents how Christians responded to this. The opinions varied from rejection of Homer and all pagan literature, considering them works of the Devil, to critical involvement with this literature. This study attempts to trace the discourse on Homer and educatioLibrary of New Testament studies ;400.Library of New Testament studies.Early Christianity in context.T & T Clark library of biblical studies.Religion and poetryEducation, AncientChurch historyPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600Religion and poetry.Education, Ancient.Church history270.1Sandnes Karl Olav1954-1542575MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785211903321The challenge of Homer3795417UNINA03986nam 22006495 450 991048296490332120251113204044.03-030-59392-410.1007/978-3-030-59392-6(CKB)4100000011728407(DE-He213)978-3-030-59392-6(MiAaPQ)EBC6461917(PPN)253255821(MiAaPQ)EBC29095805(EXLCZ)99410000001172840720210121d2021 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAdvances in Metaheuristic Algorithms for Optimal Design of Structures /by Ali Kaveh3rd ed. 2021.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2021.1 online resource (XIX, 881 p. 446 illus., 298 illus. in color.)3-030-59391-6 From the content: Particle Swarm Optimization -- Charged System Search Algorithm -- Magnetic Charged System Search -- Field of Forces Optimization. .This book presents efficient metaheuristic algorithms for optimal design of structures. Many of these algorithms are developed by the author and his graduate students, consisting of Particle Swarm Optimization, Charged System Search, Magnetic Charged System Search, Field of Forces Optimization, Democratic Particle Swarm Optimization, Dolphin Echolocation Optimization, Colliding Bodies Optimization, Ray Optimization. These are presented together with algorithms which are developed by other authors and have been successfully applied to various optimization problems. These consist of Partical Swarm Optimization, Big Band Big Crunch algorithm, Cuckoo Search Optimization, Imperialist Competitive Algorithm and Chaos Embedded Metaheuristic Algorithm. Finally a multi-objective Optimization is presented to Solve large scale structural problems based on the Charged System Search algorithm, In the second edition seven new chapters are added consisting of Enhance colliding bodies optimization, Global sensitivity analysis, Tug of War Optimization, Water evaporation optimization, Vibrating System Optimization and Cyclical Parthenogenesis Optimization algorithm. In the third edition, five new chapters are included consisting of the recently developed algorithms. These are Shuffled Shepherd Optimization Algorithm, Set Theoretical Shuffled Shepherd Optimization Algorithm, Set Theoretical Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization Algorithm, Thermal Exchange Metaheuristic Optimization Algorithm, and Water Strider Optimization Algorithm and Its Enhancement. The concepts and algorithm presented in this book are not only applicable to optimization of skeletal structure, finite element models, but can equally be utilized for optimal design of other systems such as hydraulic and electrical networks.Computational intelligenceMechanical engineeringStaticsMathematical optimizationArtificial intelligenceComputational IntelligenceMechanical EngineeringMechanical Statics and StructuresOptimizationArtificial IntelligenceComputational intelligence.Mechanical engineering.Statics.Mathematical optimization.Artificial intelligence.Computational Intelligence.Mechanical Engineering.Mechanical Statics and Structures.Optimization.Artificial Intelligence.006.3Kaveh A(Ali),1948-1596023MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910482964903321Advances in Metaheuristic Algorithms for Optimal Design of Structures4407209UNINA
