Et fantstisk verk om en av våre største skulptører, en vakker og rikt illustrert kunstbok. Knut Steen tok med seg sin klassiske utdannelse fra de to legendariske professorene Per Palle Strom og Stinius Fredriksen inn i modernismens tid. Man har kalt ham "en poet i marmor" og den som tuktet de hardeste materialer til den fineste fløyel. I boken forteller Harald Flor om dette, men først og fremst om hvordan Knut Steen utviklet sin særegne kunst, hans hovedverk og den kamp han ofte sto i med opinion og oppdragsgivere. Verden har Marini, Brancusi og Giacometto. Norge har Steen.
Nicht erst die Coronakrise zeigt, dass die Chancen der Digitalisierung von deutschen Unternehmen noch zu wenig genutzt und Kompetenzen dafür zu wenig aktiviert werden - auch wegen der hohen Unsicherheit im Übergang zu einer neuen stabilen Branchen-architektur. Dieses Buch zeigt die Chancen der Digitalisierung, analysiert branchen-übergreifend den Status Quo deutscher Unternehmen und bietet Ansatzpunkte, wie sie die Digitalisierung jetzt richtig nutzen und die digitale Transformation beschleunigen können.

Human-Computer Integration (HInt) is an emerging paradigm in the human-computer interaction (HCI) field. Its goal is to integrate the human body and the computational machine. Because HInt is not an isolated area of research, the authors draw upon discussions from related perspectives, including cybernetics, augmentation, cyborgs, and wearables. While these prior works provide a basis for HInt, and some of their associated challenges also apply to HInt, the authors focus on articulating the HInt challenges that are of particular relevance to HCI.The monograph makes three contributions: First, the authors apply two key dimensions from psychology – bodily agency and bodily ownership – to enhance our understanding of HInt systems. Second, they use these two dimensions to provide new perspectives on user integration experiences and to develop an integration systems design space. Third, they use the design space and its two dimensions to articulate HInt’s key challenges and group these challenges into four areas: design, society, identity, and technology. Ultimately, the work aims to facilitate a more structured investigation into human body and computational machine integration.
Planning tasks involving existing structures are currently among the most common types of contract, and almost every structure makes different demands and raises individual problems. Reflecting this state of affairs, there are a dizzying number of publications on the market, most of which are quite specialized. The Refurbishment Manual cuts through this jungle of publications. It defines terms and concepts, combines the narrowly focused perspectives of the specialists, and offers concrete approaches to this wide-ranging topic. The Refurbishment Manual closes the gap between basic constructional literature and one-sided, highly specialized technical literature. It constitutes a practical planning aid on the subject of refurbishment, providing a basic introduction to the relevant aspects of building physics, fire protection, sustainability and energy, hazardous materials, construction materials for interior and façade, historic preservation, and technical building equipment. It offers concrete tips on planning steps, methods of building analysis, and cost benchmarks, as well as clear constructional solutions with built projects as examples. A unique feature of the volume is the specially developed timeline, which allows the planner to quickly grasp, categorize, and evaluate a concrete building task and thus obtain an efficient planning overview. Planungsaufgaben im Bestand gehören derzeit zu den häufigsten Auftragsarten und nahezu jedes Bauwerk stellt andere Anforderungen und weist individuelle Probleme auf. Analog dazu gibt es auf dem Markt eine fast unüberschaubare Anzahl Publikationen in meist sehr spezialisierter Form. Der Sanierungsatlas möchte Licht in diesen Publikationsdschungel bringen: Er definiert Begrifflichkeiten, vereint die fokussierenden Betrachtungsweisen der Fachleute und vermittelt konkrete Herangehensweisen an diese weit gefächerte Thematik. Der Sanierungsatlas schließt die Lücke zwischen grundlegender Baukonstruktions- und sehr einseitig spezialisierter Fachliteratur. Das Buch stellt eine praktische Planungshilfe zum Thema Sanierung dar – und zwar in Form von relevanter Grundlagenvermittlung zu Bauphysik, Brandschutz, Nachhaltigkeits- und energetischen Aspekten, Schadstoffen, Baustoffen im Innenraum und an der Fassade, zu Aspekten der Denkmalpflege ebenso wie zur technischen Gebäudeausstattung. Er liefert konkrete Hinweise zu Planungsschritten, Methoden der Bauanalyse und Kostenkennwerten sowie anschauliche Konstruktionslösungen am Beispiel gebauter Projekte. Einzigartig ist die speziell entwickelte Zeitschiene, mit deren Hilfe eine konkrete Bauaufgabe schnell erfasst, kategorisiert und bewertet werden kann – und die dem Planer somit einen effizienten Planungsüberblick verschafft.
La m thode Flatortue de la trisection d'un angle arbitraire fournit les connaissances de base n cessaires (pour la trisection d'un angle arbitraire l'aide d'une r gle et d'un compas) qui faisaient d faut dans les domaines des tudes des math matiques et de g om trie pendant des si cles. La m thode FLatortue d classifie la trisection de 'probl me impossible' 'connaissance commune'. Dans cet ouvrage, les tapes simples pour r aliser la trisectrice d'un angle arbitraire sont pr sent es ainsi que l'analyse alg brique qui montre pourquoi la m thode FLatortue est math matiquement justifi e. La m thode FLatortue ouvre les portes pour r soudre le probl me de la division tout angle arbitraire en 'n' parties gales quand 'n' est un nombre premier.
El m todo FLatortue para resolver la trisectriz de un ngulo arbitrario, se dirige a todos los que tienen un inter s en matem ticas o en geometr a. Al gran p blico, a los estudiantes del nivel secundario intermedio que les presta asistencia a un curso de geometr a, a los profesores del secundaria, a los estudiantes y a los profesores de matem ticas a los niveles del ciclo superiora en una universidad, el m todo Flatortue, de la trisecci n de un ngulo arbitrario, abastece los conocimientos necesarios de base (para trazar la trisectriz de un ngulo arbitrario con la ayuda de un comp s y de una escuadra) que faltaban en los dominios de los estudios matem ticos y de la geometr a durante siglos. El m todo FLatortue desclasifica la trisecci n de un ngulo de la clase de 'problema imposible que hay que resolver' al de 'conocimiento de base'. El m todo FLatortue abre las puertas para resolver el problema de la divisi n de un ngulo arbitrario en 'n' ngulos iguales cuando 'n' es un n mero primo ('n' igual a 3, 5, 7, 11, etc.). En este libro, las etapas simples para realizar la trisectriz de un ngulo arbitrario son presentadas as como el an lisis alg brico que muestra por qu el m todo FLatortue matem ticamente es justificado.

This volume continues the work of the groundbreaking Flora Mesoamericana, the first major regional flora ever written in Spanish. The Flora describes, for the first time, all the vascular plants growing in the five southernmost states of Mexico and all the Central American republics. Hundreds of botanists specializing in tropical taxonomy from around the world are collaborating on this extraordinarily important project. This volume focuses on a single family of dicotyledons, Asteraceae, covering 282 genera and 1072 species. Asteraceae is the largest family of flowering plants and includes plants familiar to us such as daisies, chrysanthemums, and sunflowers. The guide includes complete descriptions, synonymy, distribution, and keys to identification.
This flora, published in 1964, was the first comprehensive account of Cambridgeshire's plants since Babington's of 1860. Based on records to the end of 1962, it details 1509 species. These comprise 27 pteridophytes, 3 gymnosperms, 1223 angiosperms and 256 bryophytes. The following information is provided for each of the species: scientific name; well-known vernacular name, if any; first known record of the plant in the county; synonyms; habitat; notes on rare, difficult or interesting species; distribution by OS grid reference numbers. The introduction examines local topography, climate, the main geological areas and vegetation types, together with a history of botanical investigation in the county. Important localities are noted, highlighting key species that could then be found. Botanists, conservationists and naturalists will find this historic flora provides a valuable baseline for contemporary studies, including those focusing on biodiversity, extinction or the effects of climate change.
More than one transplanted Floridian has paid $150,000 for a beautiful condominium with a sea view only to learn that, to keep the building from becoming part of the view, considerable additional money must be spent to build and repair seawalls or to pump up new beaches by dredging sand from offshore.Most of Florida's beachfront property lies on narrow strips of sand called barrier islands, which are low in elevation and subject to flooding during storms and hurricanes. Some of the construction is poor, adding to the problems facing homeowners, most whom came from other parts of the country with little awareness of the hazards of beaches. In Living with the East Florida Shore, Orrin H. Pilkey, Jr., of Duke University, along with his co-authors, has described the varied problems that confront the east shore of Florida today.
