Asme International Steam Tables for Industrial Use
ISBN: 9780791860366 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Industrial steam tables exist to provide a standard set of properties of water and steam for manufacturers, customers, and other parties. Three desirable qualities for a set of industrial steam tables are accuracy, self-consistency, and stability. The properties must be reasonably accurate and self-consistent to support quality design of equipment. A formulation must remain the standard for many years, because the change from one standard to another is inconvenient and expensive. If the tables are represented by computer programs, those programs must be fast, since design software may call...

The Passing of FutureGen: How the World's Premier Clean Coal Technology Project Came to be Abandoned by the Department of Energy
ISBN: 9781477520765 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 44 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. When President George W. Bush announced the FutureGen initiative in February of 2003, he described it as a 10-year, $1 billion, government/private partnership to build a coal-based, zero-emissions electricity and hydrogen producing power plant. It would provide the American people and the world with advanced technologies that would help meet the world's energy needs, and would improve the global environment for future generations. Spencer Abraham, then-Secretary of the Department of Energy (DOE), went even further. This "bold step" would turn coal from an "environmentally challenging energy...

The Nation's economic competitiveness and prosperity in the coming decades will depend critically upon the pace of American innovation. Recognizing the importance of advanced materials in supporting an innovation-driven U.S. manufacturing sector, President Barack Obama introduced the Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) in June 2011 with this aim: discover, develop, manufacture, and deploy advanced materials twice as fast, at a fraction of the cost. This ambitious goal is within reach. Research conducted in the early 2000s demonstrated that a systems level approach to material design,...

Progress Toward Restoring the Everglades The Fourth Biennial Review, 2012
ISBN: 9780309259224 / Angielski / 2013 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Twelve years into the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Project, little progress has been made in restoring the core of the remaining Everglades ecosystem; instead, most project construction so far has occurred along its periphery. To reverse ongoing ecosystem declines, it will be necessary to expedite restoration projects that target the central Everglades, and to improve both the quality and quantity of the water in the ecosystem. The new Central Everglades Planning Project offers an innovative approach to this challenge, although additional analyses are needed at the interface...

These are the transcripts and reports from a U.S. House of Representatives hearing held in 1984 on subliminal communication technology---the process by which an individual is presented with information without that individual being made aware specifically of that information, but to which they make a selective response. The message, which is usually in the form of words, pictures or voices, is presented so rapidly or faintly that the person seeing or hearing the message is not consciously aware of seeing or hearing anything.
