It examines STOL technology and predecessor aircraft, but focuses on the United States Air Force's Advanced Medium STOL Transport (AMST) program and its YC-14 and YC-15 demonstrators. The book describes every step of the process including the needs requirements, technological approaches, design and operation implications, proposals and winning designs, alterations, innovations, cost constraints, construction, and flight testing. STOL aircraft that flew before and after the C-17 are also discussed to illustrate the continuing evolution of the technology.AIAA case study.C-17 (Jet transport)Short take-off and landing aircraftResearch aircraftUnited StatesC-17 (Jet transport)Short take-off and landing aircraft.Research aircraft623.7/465Norton Bill1959-1871972MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957174503321STOL progenitors4481007UNINA03630nam 2200649Ia 450 991096376560332120251117075240.01-136-57435-21-136-57436-01-282-40228-597866124022891-84977-010-710.4324/9781849770101(CKB)1000000000807444(EBL)471083(OCoLC)495861389(SSID)ssj0000339216(PQKBManifestationID)12080314(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000339216(PQKBWorkID)10323460(PQKB)11045874(MiAaPQ)EBC471083(Au-PeEL)EBL471083(CaPaEBR)ebr10346840(CaONFJC)MIL240228(EXLCZ)99100000000080744420100120d2009 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierInternational support for domestic climate policies in developing countries /guest editor: Karsten Neuhoff1st ed.London Earthscanc20091 online resource (141 pages)Climate policy ;9/5Description based upon print version of record.0-415-84515-7 1-84407-872-8 Includes bibliographical references.Contents; Aims and scope; Editorial: Understanding the roles and interactions of international cooperation on domestic climate policies; Synthesis article: Using intermediate indicators: lessons for climate policy; Synthesis article: Policy targets: lessons for effective implementation of climate actions; Synthesis article: A history of conditionality: lessons for international cooperation on climate policy; Country study: Brazilian low-carbon transportation policies: opportunities for international supportCountry study: Policy and regulatory framework for renewable energy and energy efficiency development in GhanaCountry study: Domestic climate policy for the Indian steel sector; Country study: Climate co-benefit policies for the Indian power sector: domestic drivers and North-South cooperation; Country study: Concentrated solar power in South Africa; Country study: China's wind industry: policy lessons for domestic government interventions and international support; Outlook: insight: Twinning: lessons for a South-North climate policy contextThis volume examines how international cooperation can support implementation of domestic climate policies in developing countries. Six case studies explore the domestic drivers and barriers for policies with climate (co-)benefits in developing countries and show that international support can help to overcome these constraints by providing additional resources for incremental policy costs, technical assistance, and technology cooperation to build local capacity. Cooperation can also contribute to robust institutional frameworks and government policies that facilitate increased private sectorClimatic changesGovernment policyDeveloping countriesEnvironmental lawDeveloping countriesClimatic changesGovernment policyEnvironmental law363.73874Neuhoff Karsten734132MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910963765603321International support for domestic climate policies in developing countries4494807UNINA
