Stress Regimes in the Lithosphere

Stress Regimes in the Lithosphere

Terry Engelder

Princeton University Press
2014
pokkari
The purpose of this book is to acquaint the geoscientist with issues associated with the debate over orientation and magnitude of stress in the lithosphere. Terry Engelder provides a broad understanding of the topic, while touching some of the specific details involved in the interpretation of stress data generated by the most commonly used measurement techniques. An understanding of stress in the lithosphere starts with an introduction to nomenclature based on three reference states of stress. Since rock strength governs differential stress magnitudes, stress regimes are identified according to the specific failure mechanism (crack propagation, shear rupture, ductile flow, or frictional slip) that controls the magnitude of stress at a particular time and place in the lithosphere. After introducing the various stress regimes, the author shows how their extent in the upper crust is demarcated by direct measurements of four types: hydraulic fracture, borehole-logging, strain-relaxation, and rigid-inclusion measurements. The relationship between lithospheric stress and the properties of rocks is then presented in terms of microcrack-related phenomena and residual stress. Lithospheric stress is also inferred from the analysis of earthquakes. Finally, lithospheric stress is placed in the context of large-scale stress fields and plate tectonics. Originally published in 1993. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother

When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother

Mary Engelbreit

Andrews McMeel Publishing
1999
sidottu
The warmth and whimsy of Mary Engelbreit's work is even better when shared with a friend-- and When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother is the perfect way to spread the joy. When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother makes the perfect gift for the new grandmother or grandma-to-be. Illustrated by the one-and-only Mary Engelbreit and authored by Jan Girando, this book speaks to the very essence of the close bond that grandmothers will forever share with their precious grandchildren. Let Mom and Dad handle the discipline and the scolding and leave grandma to do the cuddling and the holding. One of the most popular pieces of art from America's favorite illustrator is her "When a Child is Born, So Is a Grandmother" image. Featuring that well-known drawing as its centerpiece, this book illustrates the joy and excitement every grandmother feels when their precious grandchild arrives into the world.

Settler Colonialism

Settler Colonialism

Sai Englert

PLUTO PRESS
2022
pokkari
From the Palestinian struggle against Israeli Apartheid, to First Nations' mass campaigns against pipeline construction in North America, Indigenous peoples are at the forefront of some of the crucial struggles of our age. Rich with their distinct histories and cultures, they are connected by the shared enemy they face: settler colonialism. In this introduction to the subject, Sai Englert highlights the ways in which settler colonialism has and continues to shape our global economic and political order. From the rapacious accumulation of resources, land, and labour, through Indigenous dispossession and genocide, to the development of racism as a form of social control, settler colonialism is deeply connected to many of today's social ills. To understand settler colonialism as an ongoing process, is therefore also to start engaging with contemporary social movements and solidarity campaigns differently. It is to start seeing how distinct struggles for justice and liberation are intertwined.

The Combinatory Programme

The Combinatory Programme

Erwin Engeler

Birkhauser Boston Inc
1994
sidottu
Combinatory logic started as a programme in the foundation of mathematics and in an historical context at a time when such endeavours attracted the most gifted among the mathematicians. This small volume arose under quite differ­ ent circumstances, namely within the context of reworking the mathematical foundations of computer science. I have been very lucky in finding gifted students who agreed to work with me and chose, for their Ph. D. theses, subjects that arose from my own attempts 1 to create a coherent mathematical view of these foundations. The result of this collaborative work is presented here in the hope that it does justice to the individual contributor and that the reader has a chance of judging the work as a whole. E. Engeler ETH Zurich, April 1994 lCollected in Chapter III, An Algebraization of Algorithmics, in Algorithmic Properties of Structures, Selected Papers of Erwin Engeler, World Scientific PubJ. Co. , Singapore, 1993, pp. 183-257. I Historical and Philosophical Background Erwin Engeler In the fall of 1928 a young American turned up at the Mathematical Institute of Gottingen, a mecca of mathematicians at the time; he was a young man with a dream and his name was H. B. Curry. He felt that he had the tools in hand with which to solve the problem of foundations of mathematics mice and for all. His was an approach that came to be called "formalist" and embodied that later became known as Combinatory Logic.

Creating Bliss In Your Life With A Vestibular Condition and Beyond

Creating Bliss In Your Life With A Vestibular Condition and Beyond

Em Englert

Blurb
2025
pokkari
Em's journey with a vestibular condition felt like a lifetime at one point. It was the section on the trail when she was climbing through the darkness, searching for answers, and eventually recovering her wellness. She learned that the bliss had already existed within her, even when symptoms were constantly crashing. Finding her grounded stated, Em has danced farther away from the darkness of her vestibular something at this point and along the way she learned many lessons that she shares with you in this book. It's about putting the power in your hands when it comes to your health because in her mind that is the ultimate goal. Feel empowered and determined on your healing journey and imagine where it can take you... (Hint: wherever you want it to.) Em explores topics such as setbacks and regressions, the weight of fear, rebuilding confidence, feeling life again, creating health through diet and lifestyle, and more. There are many different labels and symptoms when it comes to vestibular somethings: vestibular neuritis, vestibular migraines, migraine associated vertigo, persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD), cervicogenic dizziness, Meniere's disease, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), Mal de Débarquement...to name a few. Em is a Health Advocate and fellow Vestibular Warrior. She had several of these labels thrown at her and ultimately looked to healing from the inside out. Finally, this book is about elevating your wellness and creating bliss with your vestibular something... and beyond. It's also about the energy that we're going to create. That energy will be a guiding light every step of the way through the ups and downs of life with a vestibular something. That energy will carry you through this chapter and the next. Put your hands on your heart. It's already coursing within you...
