After a period of interest around the turn of the twentieth century, recent decades have seen an important study of Walter Burkert (1987). Yet his thematic approach makes it hard to see how the actual initiation into the Mysteries took place. To do precisely that is the aim of this book. It gives a 'thick description' of the major Mysteries, not only of the famous Eleusinian Mysteries, but also those located at the interface of Greece and Anatolia: the Mysteries of Samothrace, Imbros and Lemnos as well as those of the Corybants. It then proceeds to look at the Orphic-Bacchic Mysteries, which have become increasingly better understood due to the many discoveries of new texts in the recent times. Having looked at classical Greece we move on to the Roman Empire, where we study not only the lesser Mysteries, which we know especially from Pausanias, but also the new ones of Isis and Mithras. We conclude our book with a discussion of the possible influence of the Mysteries on emerging Christianity. Its detailed references and up-to-date bibliography will make this book indispensable for any scholar interested in the Mysteries and ancient religion, but also for those scholars who work on initiation or esoteric rituals, which were often inspired by the ancient Mysteries.Münchner Vorlesungen zu antiken Welten ;Bd. 1.Mysteries, ReligiousCivilization, ClassicalHistory, AncientAntiquity.cult.initiation.mysteries.Mysteries, Religious.Civilization, Classical.History, Ancient.292.9Bremmer Jan N.157056Sfameni Gasparro Giuliactbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996308840003316Initiation into the mysteries of the ancient world2252728UNISA04927nam 2201201z- 450 991055762990332120210501(CKB)5400000000045115(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/69325(oapen)doab69325(EXLCZ)99540000000004511520202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierStructural Health Monitoring of Large Structures Using Acoustic Emission-Case HistoriesBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 online resource (298 p.)3-03928-474-6 3-03928-475-4 Acoustic emission (AE) techniques have successfully been used for assuring the structural integrity of large rocket motorcases since 1963, and their uses have expanded to ever larger structures, especially as structural health monitoring (SHM) of large structures has become the most urgent task for engineering communities around the world. The needs for advanced AE monitoring methods are felt keenly by those dealing with aging infrastructures. Many publications have appeared covering various aspects of AE techniques, but documentation of actual applications of AE techniques has been mostly limited to reports of successful results without technical details that allow objective evaluation of the results. There are some exceptions in the literature. In this Special Issue of the Acoustics section of Applied Sciences, we seek contributions covering these exceptions cited here. Here, we seek contributions describing case histories of AE applications to large structures that have achieved the goals of SHM by providing adequate technical information supporting the success stories. Types of structures can include aerospace and geological structures, bridges, buildings, factories, maritime facilities, off-shore structures, etc. Experiences with AE monitoring methods designed and proven for large struHistory of engineering and technologybicssc2011 Tohoku earthquake2D-MUSICacoustic emissionacoustic emission (AE)acoustic emission swarmalkali-silica reactionasphalt pavementsattenuationb-valuebeambridgebridgesclosed-form solutioncomposite structurecompositesconfinementcooling cyclescorrosioncrack growthcritical phenomenacrustal movementdamage evaluationdiagnostic methodsdraglineembrittlement temperaturesfatigue life predictiongas adsorberhigh temperaturehigh-rate dynamicshost rockhydrotreaterimpact localizationin situ acoustic emission (AE) monitoringminesmultipletn/anatural timenon-destructive methods (NDT)non-destructive testingnondestructive evaluation (NDE)nondestructive testingnuclear facilitiesoptimized EEMDoutlierpart qualificationpattern recognitionrecycled asphalt pavementsrecycled asphalt shinglesreliabilityremote monitoringrepeating earthquakerotary kilnsensingsignal processingsource locationstructural designstructural diagnosisstructural health monitoringstructural health monitoring (SHM)structural integritythermal crackingtime difference of arrivaltime series analysisuncertainty analysisvibrationweight estimationHistory of engineering and technologyOno Kanjiedt1314054Shiotani TomokiedtWevers MartineedtHamstad Marvin AedtOno KanjiothShiotani TomokiothWevers MartineothHamstad Marvin AothBOOK9910557629903321Structural Health Monitoring of Large Structures Using Acoustic Emission-Case Histories3645621UNINA
