Space Elevators are the Transportation Story of the 21st Century

Space Elevators are the Transportation Story of the 21st Century

Lulu.com

pokkari
A NEW Space Transportation Paradigm has emerged. Ideas brought forward in this report are presented in clear and understandable ways, although a revolutionary concept is becoming real. The envisioned cooperative and collaborative operations between rockets and space elevators will benefit mankind into the next century. 1- Space Elevators can be accomplished because there is a material for the tether, 2- Space Elevators are Earth Friendly, and 3- Space Elevators ENABLE Interplanetary Missions with: o Fast Transit to Mars (as short as 61 days, with variations out to 400+) o Can release towards Mars EVERY day (no 26 month wait) o Can move massive amounts of cargo (170,000 Metric tonnes/year to GEO and beyond)

Humanistisk Palliation er en antologi og en introduktion til den del af det palliative felt, der er optaget af at forstå de sociale, kulturelle, socialpsykologiske, psykologiske og mere åndelige aspekter af omsorg for og pleje af syge og døende i vores samfund. Bogen ønsker således at tilbyde en bredt anlagt introduktion til det humanistisk palliative felt samt præsentere en lang række specifikke kapitler, der hver især indfanger særlige tematikker/perspektiver i relation til dette felt. Samtidig er det ikke bogens hensigt at introducere til de kliniske eller medicinske aspekter af det palliative virke. Bogens bidragydere repræsenterer en bredt sammensat gruppe og skriver ind de forskellige faglige perspektiver, de etiske udfordringer eller ind i et mere terapeutisk- filosofisk- trøstende perspektiv. Bogen henvender sig til professionelle og studerende inden for det sundhedsfaglige og sociale område og kan læses i sin helhed (fx på kurser eller moduler i palliation), men de enkelte kapitler kan også læses enkeltvis.

Running on Empty: Along an Epic 12,000-Mile Road Trip, America Has Its Say on Economic Inequality

Running on Empty: Along an Epic 12,000-Mile Road Trip, America Has Its Say on Economic Inequality

Peter Michael

Underground Railroad Free Press
2015
sidottu
In his vivid descriptive style, prize-winning author Peter H. Michael recounts his classic 12,000-mile road trip taking in the expansive variety of people and places of the United States. Michael set out not to fathom the country "in search of America" as Steinbeck, Kerouac and Least Heat-Moon had but to listen and let America tell him whatever it might. Tell it did. Michael listens to Americans finally awakening to the income and wealth gaps which over the past generation have eroded the middle class and hit the poor hardest of all. In clear punchy style, he demolishes plutocrat arguments in an eminently readable expos on how the super-rich and largest corporations purchase economic inequality.

Operational Weather Forecasting

Operational Weather Forecasting

Peter Michael Inness; Steve Dorling

John Wiley Sons Inc
2013
nidottu
This book offers a complete primer, covering the end-to-end process of forecast production, and bringing together a description of all the relevant aspects together in a single volume; with plenty of explanation of some of the more complex issues and examples of current, state-of-the-art practices. Operational Weather Forecasting covers the whole process of forecast production, from understanding the nature of the forecasting problem, gathering the observational data with which to initialise and verify forecasts, designing and building a model (or models) to advance those initial conditions forwards in time and then interpreting the model output and putting it into a form which is relevant to customers of weather forecasts. Included is the generation of forecasts on the monthly-to-seasonal timescales, often excluded in text-books despite this type of forecasting having been undertaken for several years. This is a rapidly developing field, with a lot of variations in practices between different forecasting centres. Thus the authors have tried to be as generic as possible when describing aspects of numerical model design and formulation. Despite the reliance on NWP, the human forecaster still has a big part to play in producing weather forecasts and this is described, along with the issue of forecast verification – how forecast centres measure their own performance and improve upon it. Advanced undergraduates and postgraduate students will use this book to understand how the theory comes together in the day-to-day applications of weather forecast production. In addition, professional weather forecasting practitioners, professional users of weather forecasts and trainers will all find this new member of the RMetS Advancing Weather and Climate series a valuable tool. Provides an end-to-end description of the weather forecasting processClearly structured and pitched at an accessible level, the book discusses the practical choices that operational forecasting centres have to make in terms of what numerical models they use and when they are run.Takes a very practical approach, using real life case-studies to contextualize informationDiscusses the latest advances in the area, including ensemble methods, monthly to seasonal range prediction and use of ‘nowcasting’ tools such as radar and satellite imageryFull colour throughoutWritten by a highly respected team of authors with experience in both academia and practice.Part of the RMetS book series ‘Advancing Weather and Climate’

Number Story

Number Story

Peter Michael Higgins

Springer London Ltd
2016
nidottu
Numbers have fascinated people for centuries. They are familiar to everyone, forming a central pillar of our understanding of the world, yet the number system was not presented to us “gift-wrapped” but, rather, was developed over millennia. Peter Higgins distills centuries of work into one delightful narrative that celebrates the mystery of numbers and explains how different kinds of numbers arose and why they are useful. Full of historical snippets and interesting examples, the book ranges from simple number puzzles and magic tricks, to showing how ideas about numbers relate to real-world problems, such as: How are our bank account details kept secure when shopping over the internet? What are the chances of winning at Russian roulette; or of being dealt a flush in a poker hand? As our understanding of numbers continues to evolve, this book invites us to rediscover the mystery and beauty of numbers and reminds us that the story of numbers is a tale with a long way to run...
