It includes problem solving constructions and mathematical formulas. For anyone interested in drawing or recognizing an oval, this book gives all the necessary construction and calculation tools. More than 30 basic construction problems are solved, with references to Geogebra animation videos, plus the solution to the Frame Problem and solutions to the Stadium Problem. A chapter (co-written with Margherita Caputo) is dedicated to totally new hypotheses on the project of Borromini?s oval dome of the church of San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane in Rome. Another one presents the case study of the Colosseum as an example of ovals with eight centres. The book is unique and new in its kind: original contributions add up to about 60% of the whole book, the rest being taken from published literature (and mostly from other work by the same author). The primary audience is: architects, graphic designers, industrial designers, architecture historians, civil engineers; moreover, the systematic way in which the book is organised could make it a companion to a textbook on descriptive geometry or on CAD. 606 $aGeometry 606 $aMathematics 606 $aGeometry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21006 606 $aMathematics in Art and Architecture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M34000 615 0$aGeometry. 615 0$aMathematics. 615 14$aGeometry. 615 24$aMathematics in Art and Architecture. 676 $a516 700 $aMazzotti$b Angelo Alessandro$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0906919 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254289903321 996 $aAll Sides to an Oval$92028761 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03785nam 2200601Ia 450 001 9910966788703321 005 20251117074526.0 010 $a1-907343-00-8 010 $a1-4416-3885-7 035 $a(CKB)2470000000002002 035 $a(EBL)3007750 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000423061 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11289441 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000423061 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10439206 035 $a(PQKB)10886921 035 $a(OCoLC)607920159 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3007750 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3007750 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10303284 035 $a(OCoLC)923619073 035 $a(BIP)37126810 035 $a(BIP)9926414 035 $a(EXLCZ)992470000000002002 100 $a20140717d2008 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aMetallurgy of pure metals $emethods of refining pure substances /$fJaromir Drapala and Lumir Kuchar 210 $aCambridge $cCambridge International Science Publishing$d2008 215 $a1 online resource (237 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a1-904602-03-7 320 $aIncludes bibliography and index. 327 $a""Contents""; ""Introduction""; ""1.

Special attention is paid not only to the high degree of chemical purity attainable by chemical or physico-chemical hydrometallurgical methods, such as sorption, extraction, crystallisation from aqueous solutions, electrolysis, and also by pyrometallurgical methods such as crystallisation from melts, evaporation, condensation and transport reactions, electro-transport, diffusion separation of substances, removal of gases from melts and vacuum refining of metals. In the production of high purity metals by crystallisation refining methods, zone melting and directional crystallisation as the main methods of preparation of defined super purity metals, the controlled redistribution of the impurities and admixtures present in the main substance also takes place at the melt-crystal interface in the single crystal state. The determination of the distribution coefficient, its properties and correlation with the proton number of the admixture of the distribution coefficient is the subject of special attention in this book. The Appendix summarizes the values of the distribution coefficients in binary diagrams, mainly copper, aluminium, iron and its transformation, selected noble, refractory and radioactive metals and lanthanides and semiconductors. 606 $aMetallurgy 606 $aMetals$xRefining 615 0$aMetallurgy. 615 0$aMetals$xRefining. 676 $a669 700 $aDrapala$b Jaromir$01867501 701 $aKuchar$b Lumir$01867502 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966788703321 996 $aMetallurgy of pure metals$94475095 997 $aUNINA
