A Complete overview of theory, selection, design, operation, and maintenance This text offers a thorough overview of the operating characteristics, efficiencies, design features, troubleshooting, and maintenance of dynamic and positive displacement process gas compressors. The author examines a wide spectrum of compressors used in heavy process industries, with an emphasis on improving reliability and avoiding failure. Readers learn both the theory underlying compressors as well as the myriad day-to-day practical issues and challenges that chemical engineers and plant operation personnel must address. The text features: Latest design and manufacturing details of dynamic and positive displacement process gas compressorsExamination of the full range of machines available for the heavy process industriesThorough presentation of the arrangements, material composition, and basic laws governing the design of all important process gas compressorsGuidance on selecting optimum compressor configurations, controls, components, and auxiliaries to maximize reliabilityMonitoring and performance analysis for optimal machinery conditionSystematic methods to avoid failure through the application of field-tested reliability enhancement conceptsFluid instability and externally pressurized bearingsReliability-driven asset management strategies for compressorsUpstream separator and filter issues The text's structure is carefully designed to build knowledge and skills by starting with key principles and then moving to more advanced material. Hundreds of photos depicting various types of compressors, components, and processes are provided throughout. Compressors often represent a multi-million dollar investment for such applications as petrochemical processing and refining, refrigeration, pipeline transport, and turbochargers and superchargers for internal combustion engines. This text enables the broad range of engineers and plant managers who work with these compressors to make the most of the investment by leading them to the best decisions for selecting, operating, upgrading, maintaining, and troubleshooting.

The Korean Myths

The Korean Myths

Heinz Insu Fenkl; Bella Myong-wol Dalton-Fenkl

THAMES HUDSON LTD
2024
sidottu
The perfect introduction to the world of Korean myth and legend. Korean myths are a living and evolving part of society, in both the North and South. With the export of Korean film across the globe, K-pop, fashion, K-dramas, literature and comics there is a growing desire to understand the folklore and mythical underpinnings of contemporary Korean Culture. Insu and Bella Fenkl bring together a wealth of knowledge of both the new and the old, the traditional and the modern to guide the reader through this fascinating history and help understand the people, their traditions and culture. From the Changsega (‘Song of Creation’) sung by shamans, to the gods, goddesses and monsters who inhabit the cosmos, including the god Mireuk, creator of the world, and the giant Grandma Mago, who was able to create mountains from the mud on her skirt, these myths have been disseminated for centuries and continue to resonate in popular culture today.

Crystals in Gels and Liesegang Rings

Crystals in Gels and Liesegang Rings

Heinz K. Henisch

Cambridge University Press
2005
pokkari
Providing the first comprehensive overview of the method of crystal growth in gels, Professor Henisch reviews the field, covering the underlying physics as well as the empirical experience of growth techniques accumulated over the past century. In addition, the book discusses the phenomenon of periodic precipitation, which often governs the distribution of crystal in laboratory growth systems. For the first time, computer techniques are brought to bear on the subject, the diffusion equations being solved numerically, in association with the conditions governing precipitations and crystal growth.

Metrical Phonology and Phonological Structure

Metrical Phonology and Phonological Structure

Heinz J. Giegerich

Cambridge University Press
2009
pokkari
In this monograph, the first to be exclusively concerned with a model of phonological structure that is becoming increasingly influential, Heinz Giegerich pursues two major aims. First, he explores the theoretical foundations of 'metrical phonology' and in so doing suggests that the current model should be significantly simplified: auxiliary devices such as 'prosodic categories', ' metrical grids' and segmental stress features are shown to be unnecessary in this study. Secondly, he applies the model to a wide range of German and English data and in particular provides a detailed account of the stress patterns of German words - native and nonnative, morphologically simple and complex. The many similarities between German and English phonological structure are thereby strikingly illustrated. The book's clarity of exposition will enable readers not wholly familiar with metrical phonology to appreciate fully the elegance of this model in, arguably, its most basic form.

Vegetation Ecology of Central Europe

Vegetation Ecology of Central Europe

Heinz Ellenberg

Cambridge University Press
1988
sidottu
English translation makes this unique book, now in its fourth edition, available to a wider audience. This book is without doubt the most important work ever published about the vegetation of central Europe and its ecology. No other book contains so much ecological information and discusses so many principles relevant not only to plant ecologists in continental Europe, but to ecologists and palaeoecologists in the British Isles and North America. Besides providing valuable syntheses of the major plant communities, Ellenberg details the ecology and environmental requirements of all the vegetation types and discusses the climatic tolerances and ecological physiology of many of the major species. The account is based upon a life time of thorough field work and experimental investigation. One of the major messages to be gleaned from the book concerns the long-lasting and considerable effects of human activity upon the vegetation, and the book therefore has much to teach about the impact of agriculture and industrial pollution and highlights the need to plan carefully for the conservation of our rich natural and semi-natural environment.

Microbial Ecology

Microbial Ecology

Heinz Stolp

Cambridge University Press
1988
pokkari
The rapid expansion od industry and the excessive demands made on limited natural resources have caused genuine concern at all levels of society. In the past this concern has concentrated on plants and animals and their relationships with their environments, but now attention is also turning towards microorganisms whose role is crucial to so many natural processes - from global life and mineral cycles through to the production of beer and milk products. After a brief introduction to microbiology this book concentrates on the ecological aspects of microbial life covering a wide variety of topics including structure, behaviour, growth, dispersal, interactions and how microbes act as symbionts and pathogens. Such a wide-ranging interdisciplinary approach will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students of microbiology, plant and animal ecology, agronomy, forestry and environmental sciences. Professionals working in the same fields will also find it informative as will those working in plant pathology and soil, aquatic, medical and food microbiology.

Spectral Theory of Linear Differential Operators and Comparison Algebras

Spectral Theory of Linear Differential Operators and Comparison Algebras

Heinz Otto Cordes

Cambridge University Press
1987
pokkari
The main aim of this book is to introduce the reader to the concept of comparison algebra, defined as a type of C*-algebra of singular integral operators. The first part of the book develops the necessary elements of the spectral theory of differential operators as well as the basic properties of elliptic second order differential operators. The author then introduces comparison algebras and describes their theory in L2-spaces and L2-Soboler spaces, and in particular their importance in solving functional analytic problems involving differential operators. The book is based on lectures given in Sweden and the USA.

Continuity of Neural Functions from Prenatal to Postnatal Life

Continuity of Neural Functions from Prenatal to Postnatal Life

Heinz F. R. Prechtl

Cambridge University Press
1991
sidottu
Is the human neonate indeed 'physiological premature', as has been frequently stated How does human neural development compare with that of otherprimate species Is early human development a gradual unfolding of neuralmechanisms from prenatal to postnatal life, or does it show rapidtransformations at particular ages The aim of this book is to answer these andsimilar questions about the functional repertoire of the human fetus, neonate, and young infant. Two main theoretical concepts are considered: first, therelationship between neural maturation and the duration of pregnancy and second,the existence of ontogenetic adaptations. Surveys and findings relevant tothese concepts are provided by experts from various disciplines involved inresearch on fetal and preterm development and on the first three months ofpostnatal life. This book differs from many others summarizing descriptiveknowledge of the field by emphasizing new theoretical concepts of earlyfunctional development. Recent ultrasound studies of the fetus have contributedgreatly to this new approach, which has clear implications for the assessmentand care of young infants.This thought-provoking book will be of interest todevelopmental neurologists, pediatricians and obstetricians, as well as todevelopmental psychologists and physical anthropologists.

Theory of Production

Theory of Production

Heinz D. Kurz; Neri Salvadori

Cambridge University Press
1995
sidottu
This compelling book contains a comprehensive analytical treatment of the theory of production in a long-period framework. Although the authors take a ‘Classical’ approach to their subject, the scope of investigation and methods employed should interest all economic theorists. Professors Kurz and Salvadori explore economic systems that are characterised by a particular kind of primary input in the production process, such as different kinds of labour and natural resources. These systems and the corresponding prices can be understood to reflect characteristic features of a capitalist market economy in an ideal way: they express the pure logic of the relationship between value and distribution in an economic system. Specific chapters deal with prices and income distribution, economic growth, joint production, fixed capital, scarce natural resources (both renewable and exhaustible), and heterogeneous labour. The historical origins of the concepts used are also discussed in considerable detail.

Lexical Strata in English

Lexical Strata in English

Heinz J. Giegerich

Cambridge University Press
1999
sidottu
In Lexical Strata in English, Heinz Giegerich investigates the way in which alternations in the sound patterns of words interact with the morphological processes of the language. Drawing examples from English and German, he uncovers and spells out in detail the principles of 'lexical morphology and phonology', a theory that has in recent years become increasingly influential in linguistics. Giegerich queries many of the assumptions made in that theory, overturning some and putting others on a principled footing. What emerges is a formally coherent and highly constrained theory of the lexicon - the theory of 'base-driven' stratification - which predicts the number of lexical strata from the number of base-category distinctions recognized in the morphology of the language. Finally, he offers accounts of some central phenomena in the phonology of English (including vowel 'reduction', [r]-sandhi and syllabification), which both support and are uniquely facilitated by this new theory.

Constituting Democracy

Constituting Democracy

Heinz Klug

Cambridge University Press
2000
sidottu
Against the backdrop of South Africa's transition from apartheid, this provocative book explores the role of late twentieth century constitutionalism in facilitating political change. Using South Africa as a case study, Klug's larger project is to investigate why there has been renewed faith in justiciable constitutions and democratic constitutionalism despite the widespread recognition that courts are institutionally weak, lack adequate resources and are largely inaccessible to most citizens. He places this question in a broader context, evaluating the appeal of different constitutional models and illustrating how globalized institutions can be adapted to serve local domestic needs. Incorporating constitutional law, politics and legal history, this examination of South Africa's constitution-making process provides important insights into the role of law in the transition to democracy.

"Once Benita is on the job, the plot accelerates, ably melding espionage and thriller components ... Invigorating cross-genre story with a distinctive futuristic setting." -Kirkus ReviewsIn the near future, when "uploading your personal data" means every movement, every gesture, and everything you see, hear, or say, Benita Garc s makes a respectable living selling every detail of her daily behavior. Her employer is a fabulously successful provider of intelligent, autonomous virtual characters, and is now introducing a line of walking, talking physical humanoid robots. It is the detailed, digitized behavior of people like Benita that is used to breathe life, emotion, and eerie intelligence into these machines.At the cusp of creating an artificial super-intelligence, one of the company founders has a problem. There is a mysterious conspiracy afoot, and he knows that Benita can help him solve it. Benita expects an easy, by the numbers investigation, but that's not what she gets. There's more than meets the eye going on.A lot more.This noir science-fiction thriller describes how captured human behavior can be fed into a machine learning algorithm to create an Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), and from there leapfrog to an Artificial Super-Intelligence (ASI). Vexing questions arise: what are the plausible roles of ASIs in human society? How many can there be? What will be the roles of humans? Where does that leave us?What is reality if we paint a spiritual plane over it in Augmented Reality (AR) goggles? What, exactly, are we painting? Who is then watching us? Who or what is helping us watch everybody else? What's going on behind the scenes, at nameless, distant data centers?The near future is sketched out with disturbing immediacy.
